The school issued a terse statement Wednesday
that read, "Student O'Maury Samuels has been dismissed from the
Michigan Football program."
Michigan did not give a reason, but the Detroit Free Press said
Samuels was arrested and charged with one misdemeanor count of
domestic violence and one misdemeanor charge of malicious
destruction of property. The alleged incident occurred Saturday.
Samuels was arraigned Wednesday morning and is due back in court
in Ann Arbor, Mich., on Dec. 27.
Michigan signed Samuels, from Los Lunas, N.M., as part of its
Class of 2017. He was ranked by the 247Sports composite as a
four-star prospect and the No. 20 running back in the nation in
that class.
His playing time was limited with the Wolverines, as he carried
the ball 21 times for 79 yards over two seasons.
Michigan (10-2) and Florida (9-3) will meet in the Peach Bowl on
Dec. 29 in Atlanta.
