Buffs’ second-leading WR suspended

The up-and-down career of Markques Simas at Colorado took another downturn today as head coach Dan Hawkins announced the wide receiver has been indefinitely suspended.

Simas was suspended for violating unspecified team rules.

The sophomore’s 2008 season was wiped out due to academic issues, as were the first two games of the 2009 season.

“This is obviously disappointing, but we are going to continue to emphasize our philosophy of excellence with class and we will uphold our standards,” Hawkins said in a statement.

When Simas finally got on the field last season he was productive, finishing second on the team in both receptions (43) and receiving yards (585). He also scored three touchdowns.
