Florida's Jabbar Juluke gets 3-game ban for role in LSU scuffle - ESPN

Florida associate head football coach and running backs coach Jabbar Juluke was suspended for three games for his involvement in an altercation before the Gators' game at LSU on Saturday, the SEC and Florida jointly announced Tuesday.

«Jabbar Juluke's conduct during the pregame altercation reflects behavior that is unacceptable and not aligned with the standards of the Southeastern Conference,» SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said in a news release. «Coaches are expected to be leaders and to de-escalate tense situations, and that did not happen in this circumstance. This suspension is appropriate, and any future misconduct by Jabbar Juluke will result in more severe disciplinary action.»

Juluke will miss Florida's next three games — at No. 4 Miami, at home against No. 8 Texas and at No. 10 Texas A&M. Juluke, a native of New Orleans, released the following statement through the SEC office:

«I, first, would like to apologize to both Florida and LSU universities, their teams, staff and fans. I also sincerely apologize to the young athlete and his family. On Saturday, I reacted in a manner I'm not proud of. There's no excuse for my behavior and I take full responsibility for my actions. In this game, emotional situations occur and bad reactions happen. I regret my reaction and commit to using this moment to strengthen my emotional intelligence.

»I know more is expected of us as coaches, and I commit to living up to that expectation. I believe growth is in ownership and learning from the good and the bad. I intend to use this situation as a teachable moment, not only for myself, but for those I impact. Again, I offer my sincerest apologies to both institutions and the staffs and families involved."
