Four more Michigan State football players have been suspended following the Brawl at the Big House between Spartans and Wolverines Saturday night.

In a joint statement late Tuesday from athletics director Alan Haller and coach Mel Tucker, the suspensions of senior Jacoby Windmon, senior Brandon Wright, junior Justin White and freshman Malcolm Jones were revealed.

The players are off the team “effective immediately.” This action coming two days after MSU suspended junior Angelo Grose, sophomores Itayvion “Tank” Brown and Khary Crump, and freshman Zion Young.

According to the latest statement from Michigan State officials:

“We are transparently working with law enforcement and the Big Ten Conference to evaluate additional facts and evidence surrounding the events in Ann Arbor. We will continue to take appropriate action in this matter as we learn more. The student-athlete suspensions will remain in place until the investigations are complete. The health and safety of our student-athletes, coaches, personnel, and the Spartan community is our number one priority.”
