ISU wide receiver and senior Wallace Franklin has been kicked off the football team. Franklin was arrested and charged with public intoxication early Thursday morning after being discovered slumped against a building on Welch Avenue.

The arrest was Franklin’s third in 15 months, but his first alcohol-related incident. On March 2, 2008, Franklin was arrested after a fight with another individual and charged with disorderly conduct and interference with official acts. On May 4, 2008, Franklin was involved in a fight that included several parties. He was again charged with interference with official acts.

After the two incidences in 2008, Franklin was suspended by then-coach Gene Chizik.

Franklin’s contributions to Cyclone football were two catches for five yards and a touchdown, all in 2007.
