Linebacker Trey Payne was suspended for at least the first four games of the season for an accumulation of acts of “conduct detrimental to the team,” Miles said Thursday.
Payne, a 6-0, 230-pound, linebacker, redshirted last season as a freshman. He was expected to challenge for playing time this season.
Additionally, safety Sheldon Wynn and wide receiver Michael Harrison won’t enroll at Georgia State because of academic-related issues. Wynn signed with the Panthers out of Hartnell College in Salinas, Calif.
Harrison signed ouf of Mt. San Jacinto Junior College in California.
Additionally, back-up quarterback Clay Chastain, who considered transferring, will stay at Georgia State. Wide receiver Avery Sweeting, who didn’t participate in team-related activities the last few weeks of last season and part of the offseason, has rejoined the team. Sweeting, a junior, has caught 12 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown.
