THE SIDELINES : Hawaii Coach Suspends Farmer
Sophomore running back Jamal Farmer has been suspended indefinitely by Hawaii coach Bob Wagner.
Farmer, the team’s leading rusher last season, was suspended for repeatedly missing practices and for conduct unbecoming a Hawaii athlete, according to a report from Honolulu television station KGMB.
Farmer was suspended for one game last season for what Wagner at the time called “chronic” irresponsibility for missing or coming late to team meetings.
Last season, Farmer rushed for 986 yards and set an NCAA record for a freshman with 18 touchdowns.
