Gino Cruse and Antonio Freeman, each cited recently for marijuana offenses, have been dismissed from the University of Wisconsin football team, continuing a house cleaning by first-year coach Bret Bielema.
The moves were announced in a statement that accompanied the release of the Badgers’ two-deep roster. The release of Cruse and Freeman, who were expected to be reserves next season, means three players have been booted from the program by Bielema.
