Florida State QB Deondre Francois dismissed by Willie Taggart after girlfriend's post

Florida State quarterback Deondre Francois has been dismissed from the football team.

"Last night, I informed Deondre Francois that he is no longer a member of the Florida State football program," Taggart said in a statement released by the university.

"As we build a new culture and foundation for FSU Football, we have high expectations for all of our student-athletes and we will not shy away from those high standards of conduct. We are moving forward as a program."

The girlfriend of Francois posted a video to Instagram Saturday alleging that Francois has abused her.
