BOISE, Idaho (AP) -Boise State defensive end Byron Hout will not be suspended after taunting Oregon’s LeGarrette Blount before getting decked with a punch.
Boise State spokesman Max Corbet told The Associated Press in an e-mail Friday that head coach Chris Petersen won’t suspend Hout. Instead, Petersen will spend time with Hout this week to help him learn from what happened.
Hout was knocked to his knees by Blount after No. 14 Boise State’s 19-8 win over No. 16 Oregon on Thursday night. Hout yelled in Blount’s face and tapped him on the shoulder pad before catching the right to the jaw. Petersen was trying to pull Hout away when he was hit.
The Pac-10 Conference has still to review tape of the altercation.
