UPDATE: Jameel McKay reached out to Des Moines Register columnist Randy Peterson on Saturday morning, writing that his indefinite suspension was a result of something that happened during practice on Thursday.

“I don’t know what much [more] I can say, but it was practice-related,” he wrote to the Register. “I didn’t get in any legal trouble, [or] didn’t do anything to one of my teammates!”

McKay hinted in a tweet on Friday night that his suspension would be just one game, however ISU officials said that his suspension was indefinite.

“Indefinitely sounds harsh, because it’s only one game,” McKay wrote to the Register.”
