Mangus Suspended Indefinitely

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina assistant G.A. Mangus has been suspended by Gamecocks coach Steve Spurrier after Mangus’ arrest in Greenville. Spurrier said in a statement Tuesday that was disappointed in Mangus’ actions. The third-year quarterbacks coach was charged with nuisance conduct after officers saw him urinating on a downtown street. Greenville Police Department spokesman Sgt. Jason Rampey said Mangus has been released from jail. The 42-year-old coach faces a $470 fine if convicted. Spurrier said Mangus was suspended from all coaching activities until the matter is resolved. The Gamecocks open practice Aug. 3. Mangus came to South Carolina before the 2009 season. He is a former quarterback and assistant at Florida while Spurrier coached the Gators. Mangus was brought in to help with the development of South Carolina starter Stephen Garcia.
