Quarterback dismissed for violating team rules

Coach Terry Allen said Thursday that it was a difficult decision made in the best interest of the program.

Wooden, of High Springs, Fla., was suspended for the opener against Arkansas last year for a separate violation of team rules. He produced 2,420 yards in total offense his lone season as starter as a sophomore after starting 10 games at wide receiver as a redshirt freshman the previous year.

The dismissal leaves the school with two scholarship quarterbacks, sophomore Kierra Harris of Texarkana, Ark., and freshman Brodie Lambert of Arlington, Texas.
