It was only a matter of time before the reasons behind Zavier Simpsons suspension came out. It seems Simpson after a home loss to Illinois, drove a car owned by Michigan AD Warde Manuel into a pole. The RAV4 is Warde's son who is a basketball manager.
The crash happened at 3:00AM and X wasn't ticketed for DUI. The reason Zavier was suspended is because he lied to the police at first and said he wasn't driving. This has been a unique year for Simpson who could have been a candidate for player of the year. The Wolverines host the Spartans on Saturday to try to stop a 3 game losing streak at Crisler.
