re: Chris Beard (UT Basketball coach) possibly arrested on 3rd degree felony assault charges

Yeah, Beard welcomed Arterio Morris back with no punishment or games missed and was mostly swept under the rug. Imagine that. Culture of it there now.

Frisco, Texas police arrested and charged Texas men's basketball commit and 5-star guard Arterio Morris on June 2 with a Class A misdemeanor for assault causing bodily injury to a family member.

Per an arrest affidavit obtained by Brian Davis of the Austin-American Statesman, who reported the details Friday, Frisco police responded to a report of a domestic disturbance stemming from allegations that Morris had a physical altercation with his ex-girlfriend, Caden Barnes.

Case is still open, hearing in a few weeks…

Police reported seeing a 3-inch abrasion on the woman's neck and arrested Morris on a charge of assault causing injury to a family member, which includes dating relationships in Texas. The charge is a Class A misdemeanor that carries up to one year in jail and up to $4,000 in fines if convicted.
