Bielema: Marshall's career at Arkansas likely over

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Arkansas coach Bret Bielema said running back Korliss Marshall was suspended for Saturday's 30-0 win over Mississippi, and the chances of the sophomore returning to the Razorbacks are ''pretty slim.''

Marshall returned from an earlier three-game suspension last week against LSU, and he leads Arkansas in return yardage this season - including a 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Northern Illinois.

Bielema said the earlier suspension was for a violation of university policy and that Marshall had ''one more opportunity to get it right.''

Marshall, who emerged as a top running back option last season along with Jonathan Williams and Alex Collins, has 119 yards rushing on 25 carries this season.
