Austin Scott out for today's game
By Kevin Horan
Collegian Staff Writer
Austin Scott, one of Penn State's senior running backs, will not dress for today's game against Iowa because of an unspecified violation of team rules, the team announced this afternoon.
Sports Information Director Jeff Nelson made the announcement shortly before the Nittany Lions' game against Iowa, but would not answer further questions about Scott's long-term status with the team. He deferred all questions to coach Joe Paterno, who is scheduled to speak at the conclusion of today's game.
Scott started the first four games of the 2007 season at running back, but, after several costly fumbles, he was pushed behind senior Rodney Kinlaw on the depth chart for last week's game at Illinois. Scott is currently second on the team in rushing yards, with 302, and has six rushing touchdowns.

poignant comment from below the article you linked:
I can see by the posts here that Karoly’s plan to try this case in the court of public opinion is already working.
