West Virginia’s starting forward was suspended indefinitely, the program announced on Thursday night.
“West Virginia University men’s basketball coach Bob Huggins announced this evening that senior forward Jonathan Holton has been suspended indefinitely from the team for a violation of team rules,” the school said in a release.
This is a huge blow to the Mountaineers as they are set to take on the Florida Gators on Saturday, as part of the Big 12/SEC Challenge. It would have been a homecoming, of sort, for Holton as he is a native of Miami, Fla.
