Athletic director Mack Rhodes and coach Barry Odom announced the punishment on Monday night.
When are you kids going to learn? If you do something that is probably frowned upon, don’t film it. It will come back to haunt you.
This is Mauk’s third suspension in the last four months. He was suspended in September for an undisclosed violation of team policy and again in November for unspecified disciplinary reasons.
IMO, third strike and you’re out.
