TCU's Salter Suspended; Won't Play Against Utes
Big news for the Utes out of Fort Worth ... the TCU Horned Frogs have suspended junior guard Henry Salter indefinitely for "conduct detrimental to the team."
That means he won't play against the Utes at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum on Wednesday night.
A junior-college transfer, Salter had led the Horned Frogs in scoring for much of the season but now ranks second on the team by averaging 13.3 points per game -- just 0.2 points behind junior forward Kevin Langford.
Salter played just the first five minutes of the second half in last week's 66-64 win over Colorado State, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram noted, and coach Neil Dougherty said after the game that he decided to use other players because he liked the way they were playing.
Salter did not do much against the Utes in the previous meeting, scoring just six points on 2-for-9 shooting with four rebounds and four turnovers in a 74-58 Utah victory at the Huntsman Center. But he still ranks third in the Mountain West Conference by shooting 47.7 percent from three-point range.
