Arkansas suspends Michael Qualls and Alandise Harris indefinitely

University of Arkansas men’s basketball head coach Mike Anderson announced prior to the team’s SEC road contest at LSU that redshirt junior Alandise Harris and sophomore Michael Qualls have been suspended indefinitely for conduct detrimental to the team.

Neither Harris nor Qualls made the trip with the team to Baton Rouge.

“All of our student-athletes are held to a high standard and everyone is accountable for their actions,” said Anderson. “We are trying to build the ultimate team and everyone has to be on board to make that happen. Our expectations of our student-athletes is that they reflect positively on themselves and our program at all times and that they enter each day as a Razorback with a positive attitude that helps us continue to grow this program.”

Qualls started 10 games this season, averaging 11.7 points per contest. Harris appeared in all 20 games so far and has started four, averaging 9.1 points per game.

This is a major blow to the team's depth as the Razorbacks were fighting to play their onto the NCAA Tournament bubble.
