TCU quarterback Casey Pachall has been suspended indefinitely from the team for its game against Iowa State on Saturday, Oct. 6, after being arrested for driving while intoxicated early Thursday morning.

According to the TCU 360, the student newspaper, Pachall was pulled over by police after driving through a stop sign near the TCU campus in Fort Worth, Texas, early Thursday morning.

“Casey Pachall has been suspended indefinitely from competition. My job as a head coach is to win games, educate our kids and help them with their lives,” said TCU football coach Gary Patterson in an email from Director of Athletics Media Relations Mark Cohen to the 360.

Pachall, the second-year starter for the Horned Frogs (4-0, 1-0 Big 12), has passed for 948 yards and 10 touchdowns while having completed 66 percent of his passes this season.
