A month ago, Matt Boermeester was the hero of the 2017 Rose Bowl after kicking the game-winning field goal in the final seconds against Penn State.
Now, his status with USC football is in doubt as the university investigates the kicker for a student-conduct issue.
Deadspin’s Samer Kalah reported Boermeester’s suspension on Tuesday night with a statement from USC which reads:
The university is investigating a code of conduct issue with Matt Boermeester. Student disciplinary records and proceedings regarding any matter of student conduct are confidential and protected by law.
While this student code of conduct issue is being investigated, the student will not be representing the university as a member of its athletic team.
