Follow-up on the Jack Ikegwuonu's earlier arrest for allegedly stealing an XBOX froman off-campus apartment:
There's even a fan made pic of Jack Ikegwuonu on XBOX cover (above)
I was thinking all the while that Wisconsin would reinstate him into the team because he IS the best CB in Big Ten. Wisconsin cannot afford to lose such an important player in their defense when they face Arkansas in the Capital One Bowl on January 1 2007.
MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin reinstated defensive back Jack Ikegwuonu on Friday pending further developments in his burglary case.
Ikegwuonu, a sophomore cornerback and All-Big Ten Conference pick, was suspended from competition and practice Dec. 1. Police in Dekalb, Ill., had arrested Ikegwuonu and his brother, William, about a week before and accused them of breaking into an off-campus apartment and trying to steal an Xbox game console.
The brothers face residential burglary and criminal trespass charges.
Wisconsin athletic director Barry Alvarez said Ikegwuonu had been reinstated "pending further inquiry into his case." The statement did not elaborate, citing privacy laws governing student disciplinary actions.
Wisconsin will face Arkansas on Jan. 1 in the Capital One Bowl.
