Big 12 suspends four players for roles in Kansas State-Kansas melee - San Francisco Chronicle

The Big 12 suspended four players from Kansas and Kansas State a combined 24 games Wednesday for their roles in a melee that spilled off the court and into a section of disabled seating at the end of No. 3 Kansas’ home win Tuesday night.

Kansas reserve forward Silvio De Sousa, already suspended indefinitely by head coach Bill Self, was given a 12-game suspension by the league office. His teammate, starting forward David McCormack, was suspended two games. Kansas State reserves James Love (eight games) and Antonio Gordon (three games) also were penalized by the league.

The incident began after De Sousa was stripped of the ball as he was dribbling out the final seconds of an 81-60 win. He recovered to block a layup by DaJuan Gordon, then stood over the freshman in a taunting manner, triggering both benches to empty.

At one point, De Sousa was preparing to swing a stool when it was plucked from his hands, and several players from both teams threw wild punches.

“I have suspended Silvio De Sousa indefinitely pending the final outcome of the review by KU and the Big 12 Conference,” Self said shortly after discussing the incident on the league’s weekly conference call with reporters. “As I said last night, we are disappointed in his actions and there is no place in the game for that behavior.”
