WKU suspends Robinson, who has left school

Freshman Mitchell Robinson has been suspended indefinitely by Western Kentucky for a violation of team rules, the school announced Monday.

The school didn't specify the exact reason Robinson was suspended but the center left Western Kentucky two weeks into summer school, a source told ESPN.

The source told ESPN that Robinson doesn't want to play at Western Kentucky and that he would be OK transferring or sitting this year.

"Mitchell is a good kid, but the team will always be more important than one individual player. He needs to understand the value of structure and accountability in his life, and his return will be dependent upon requirements that will be handled internally.
