Texas WR Collins Kicked Off Longhorns Team

((HT: KXAN-TV, Austin))

So much for a quiet BCS week...

Texas receiver Brandon Collins, who was academically ineligible this season, has been kicked off the team...

Longhorns coach Mack Brown announced the decision a day after Collins was arrested in an Austin suburb for his alleged involvement in an incident at a McDonald's restaurant.

Collins was declared academically ineligible by the NCAA because of insufficient progress toward his degree. The junior was in good academic standing at Texas and allowed to continue practicing.

Now he's just done...
