Sooners Dismiss Former Four-Star Recruit Mikey Henderson After Police Submit a Request for an Arrest Warrant

The Oklahoma Sooners dismissed former four-star recruit Mikey Henderson on Wednesday.  The Sooners running back had a request for an arrest warrant submitted by police on Tuesday.

Henderson was allegedly involved in an armed robbery back in April.  That case resulted in the arrest of two other Oklahoma football players.

From Sports Illustrated:

The Norman Police Department has submitted a request for an arrest warrant to the Cleveland County District Attorney’s office for University of Oklahoma football player Mikey Henderson, a Norman PD spokeswoman told SI Sooners on Tuesday.

Norman PD public information officer Sarah Jensen said NPD investigators have determined that Henderson is the third party involved in an alleged armed robbery on April 15 at the Crimson Park Apartments that resulted in the arrest of OU football players Trejan Bridges and Seth McGowan.

Another unfortunate waste of athletic talent.  Henderson couldn't have picked a worse time to allegedly be involved in an armed robbery.
