According to a release for Iowa on Monday, Hawkeyes head coach Kirk Ferentz has suspended running back Derrick Mitchell Jr.

Here is the quote from the release:

“Derrick has been suspended due to football program and student life code of conduct violation,” said Ferentz.  “This is not a legal issue.  Derrick is working through the issues at hand in regards to being in good standing as a University of Iowa student.  We will follow the established university protocol as we move forward.”

Mitchell has seen little action in his two seasons at Iowa.
