Marshall Henderson Suspended Indefinitely (UPDATED)

((HT: CBS Sports/Borzello))

In a move that should, really, shock no one...

Ole Miss gunner Marshall Henderson has been suspended indefinitely from the team, but since it's the off-season, the HQ doesn't think this means a whole hill of beans right now, anyway...

But...

The suspension is related to a failed drug test, according to CBSSports.com's Gary Parrish.
Henderson's future with Ole Miss may be up in the air.

Seriously... according to Parrish...

Okay, then...

"Since the season ended we have talked a lot about Marshall taking a greater leadership role with our team," head coach Andy Kennedy said in a statement. "With that comes greater responsibility, and he must do a better job of living up to the high standard we expect from him an he desires from himself."

Henderson had attended Utah, Texas Tech and South Plains Junior College before his time at Ole Miss where he was known for things like this...

He has also been placed on probation in the past after trying to buy marijuana- with counterfeit money, and he has failed drug tests and served jail time for violating the probation associated with the charges.

THURSDAY UPDATE: Henderson, according to a report in the USA Today, was caught with marijuana and cocaine...

From Hugh Kellenberger's piece:

The Wall Street Journal broke the news: While stopped on suspicion of speeding on May 4, Henderson gave an officer a small bag containing marijuana. A police dog turned up a separate bag containing a small amount of cocaine.

The amount of cocaine was less than one-tenth of a gram, not enough to prosecute. Henderson was cited for lack of proof of liability insurance.
