Vanderbilt suspends running back indefinitely

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Vanderbilt has suspended running back Brian Kimbrow indefinitely for what Commodores coach Derek Mason described as “conduct detrimental to the team.”

The school announced Kimbrow’s suspension Monday.

Kimbrow rushed for a combined 754 yards over his first two seasons at Vanderbilt, but he hasn’t contributed nearly as much this season. His only carry of the year resulted in a fumble in a 37-7 season-opening loss to Temple.

Kimbrow, a junior from Memphis, Tennessee, rushed for 341 yards and three touchdowns on 81 carries last season. He ran for 413 yards and three touchdowns on 66 carries in 2012.

Vanderbilt (1-3, 0-2 Southeastern Conference) plays at Kentucky (2-1, 0-1) on Saturday.
