Cincinnati and Xavier each suspended four players Sunday for their roles in a brawl that ended the Bearcats’ blowout loss to No. 8 Xavier a day earlier. Cincinnati suspended senior Yancy Gates, junior Cheikh Mbodj and freshman Octavius Ellis six games each and freshman Ge’Lawn Guyn for one game. Xavier suspended freshman Dez Wells and walk-on Landen Amos for four games, junior guardMark Lyons for two and senior guard Tu Holloway for one game.
Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin said the four suspended Bearcats players will still have to earn their way back onto the team, even with their fixed game suspensions handed out by the school and endorsed by the Big East on Sunday afternoon.
