LARGO, Fla. (AP) -A Largo man has pleaded guilty to felony battery for assaulting Ohio State University football player Tyler Moeller at a bar last summer.
Ralph Gray Decker did not speak at a court hearing Wednesday. His attorney, Sean McQuaid, says Decker has always expressed “a sincere level of regret and concern” for Moeller and apologized to Moeller’s mother.
The 28-year-old Decker will be sentenced in August. He will pay $11,000 in restitution for Moeller’s medical bills.
Moeller was attacked while on vacation with his family. He suffered a fractured skull and a serious brain injury. Moeller, who missed all of last season, has been held out of contact drills but has been participating.
A spokeswoman for Ohio State declined to comment.
