Tallahassee, Fla. -- “We have been notified that Wyatt Sexton was transported to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital last night for medical reasons,” said FSU Assistant Athletics Director Rob Wilson.

“Most of us have known Wyatt since he was born and our concern is for him right now. He had been suspended from the football team for a violation of team rules two weeks ago. Coach Bowden is aware of Wyatt’s situation and would prefer not to comment at this time other than to express his support of Wyatt, Billy, Joy and the entire Sexton family.”</td></tr></tbody> </table>

Hmm. Interesting. #1, I hope the kid's alright. Then, I hope he can get off his suspension and back with the team.

[illinoisbuckeye]

Sexton repeatedly referred to himself as 'God'
By Ivan Maisel

Suspended Florida State quarterback Wyatt Sexton was taken to a Tallahassee hospital on Monday evening by local police causing a disturbance in the street, then identifying himself to police as "God" and the "son of God."

Sexton was not arrested.

Florida State assistant athletic director Rob Wilson would not comment on the incident, but did reveal that coach Bobby Bowden suspended Sexton on June 3 for an unspecified violation of team rules.

Sexton, the son of running backs coach Billy Sexton, played in 10 games last season, completing 55 percent of his passes (139-of-252) for 1,661 yards with 8 TDs and 8 INTs. He finished spring practice as the first-team quarterback, ahead of second-year players Xavier Lee and Drew Weatherford.

According to the Tallahassee Police Department report, when a police officer responded to a call regarding unusual behavior on Monday evening, the officer found Sexton lying face down in the middle of the street.

Sexton, friends told the officer, had attended the rock festival in Tennessee that featured the Dave Matthews Band and returned to town Monday.

Witnesses told police that Sexton had been making strange gestures, and at one point jumped onto a car. When asked to identify himself, Sexton "yelled that he was 'God,'" the report said, and acted in a manner irrational enough that the officer pepper-sprayed him.

Only when police put him in a patrol vehicle did Sexton identify himself by name. As police transported him to the hospital, and upon arrival, he reverted to identifying himself as "God" or the "son of God."

Tallahassee police spokesman John T. Newland said Tuesday that common procedure in such cases is that the person in custody is taken to a psychiatric facility. He did not know if that had been the case for Sexton.

At the end of spring practice, Bowden said, with archrival Miami as the opening opponent, that he would take experience over talent at the outset of the season. Since Weatherford is recovering from offseason ankle surgery, Lee appears to be the front-runner to take over the offense.

According to the police report filed Monday, one of Sexton's friends who went to Tennessee with him said that Sexton "has been very stressed out the past week over him being the starting quarterback in football for FSU."

Dumbass ate the brown ones.

I hope it was just drugs or alcohol. A mental illness seems unlikely. Maybe a combo of both.


So many "FSU-players-full-of-themselves-jokes." Why did he have to be admitted to the hospital and take away all the fun.

I was thinking that it reminded me of Barret Robbins, the Oakland Raider pro bowl center who went AWOL just before Super Bowl XXXVII. Ultimately he was located in Mexico, and diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and as an alcohol abuser.

Hopefully he gets "well" real soon.
