Rutgers star Leonte Carroo has been reinstated!

Today the restraining order was thrown out, the assault charges were dropped and his suspension was lifted. Leonte Carroo is back!!!

It has been three and half weeks since Leonte Carroo was involved in an incident outside the stadium after the loss to Washington State. He was arrested for simple assault related to domestic violence and suspended indefinitely. With all that has happened so far in the 2015 Rutgers football season, there wasn't much hope that Carroo would be seen in scarlet again this season and ultimately, his career. As the weeks went by, we heard from his lawyer that he was innocent, saw a shaky video that was hard to make out, and most everyone hoped for the sake of his own future that the allegations were false.
