ELON — Quarterback Wes Pope, who developed into the face of the Elon University football team and became a beloved figure among the campus community, has been suspended from school for the 2007 fall semester due to an academic honor code violation.

The sanctions will render him ineligible to compete for the Phoenix during the approaching season. And because the fourth-year junior took a medical redshirt year in 2003, this means his college playing career is finished.

Sounds like a great guy who just made a mistake. Says a lot about Elon as a university though.

Kudos to Pope and his coach- class responses from both. If that truly reflect's Pope's character, it's impressive.
