K'Vaughan Pope has been dismissed from the Ohio State football program.
The senior linebacker left the field at Ohio Stadium in the second quarter of Saturday’s game against Akron following what appeared to be a heated exchange on the sideline with the Buckeye coaching staff, and the team released a statement from Ryan Day Sunday that said Pope will no longer be a member of the team moving forward.
"K’Vaughan will continue to have the use of programs that benefit our student-athletes, such as our Student-Athlete Support Services Office, and we will support him with his progress toward graduation," Day's statement reads.
