USC kicker Matt Boermeester has been suspended amid a university investigation involving a “code of conduct issue,” a spokesman said Tuesday.
“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,” read a statement from the university.
It was first reported by the sports website Deadspin.
Further details regarding discipline were not known. The university statement said, “student disciplinary records and proceedings regarding any matter of student conduct are confidential and protected by law.”
Boermeester would be a senior in the fall.
