DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Duke has suspended rushing leader Jela Duncan from school for an undisclosed violation of its academic policy.
School officials said in a statement Saturday that the sophomore is not eligible to return until the Spring 2015 semester.
He will not play for the 22nd-ranked Blue Devils in the Chick-fil-A Bowl against No. 20 Texas A&M.
Duncan rushed for 562 yards and three touchdowns this season and caught 13 passes for 123 yards and a score.
