Tavares Martin Jr.’s one-game suspension resulted from Washington State’s junior receiver losing his temper at his teammates after the Cougars’ loss to Cal last Friday, and missing a practice.
“He was a little angry, saying things hadn’t gone his way the last couple of games. He broke a team rule and needs to be punished for that,” said the receiver’s father, Tavares Martin Sr. “He just made a mistake and he had to pay a price for it. It was a miscommunication between him and the coaches. He was upset. He said he felt like he should have been more involved in that game.
