Michigan State suspends four players following tunnel brawl at Michigan

Michigan State University has responded to the horrifying events that followed last night's 29-7 loss to Michigan in the stadium's tunnels.

Four players – redshirt sophomore linebacker Itayvion "Tank" Brown, redshirt sophomore center back Khary Crump, junior safety Angelo Grose and freshman defensive end Zion Young – have been suspended by the program.

Sunday night, MSU Athletics tweeted out a statement from football head coach Mel Tucker, noting that the players' initial suspensions will remain in place until the investigations with law enforcement and university leadership are completed.
