Florida State dismisses QB Deondre Francois from team

Florida State quarterback Deondre Francois has been dismissed from the team, coach Willie Taggart announced Sunday.

Taggart said in a statement that he told Francois on Saturday night he is no longer a part of the program.

"As we build a new culture and foundation for FSU football, we have high expectations for all of our student-athletes and we will not shy away from those high standards of conduct," Taggart said in a statement. "We are moving forward as a program."

Francois was involved in a domestic dispute with his pregnant girlfriend in January 2018, but no arrests were made, nor charges filed in the incident.
