Peter G. Aiken-US PRESSWIRE
The Trib's Steve Walentik reported this afternoon that Mizzou starting guard Mike Dixon and freshman Dominique Bull were suspended for "undisclosed violations of team rules."

Haith said Dixon had not practiced for more than a week but will return next week. He and Bull won't play in exhibition opener Monday.

That appears to be all we know at this point. This could have bee a class attendance issue, a team meeting issue, general insubordination ... who knows. In the Trib article above, Frank Haith insisted it wasn't a legal issue, so while more details may emerge at a later date, we may never no more than "he was suspended." Right now, my guess is that Dixon will not miss any regular-season games, but that's just a guess. Better now than February or March, I guess.
