Notre Dame Dismisses Former Five-Star Recruit After Arrest

Max Redfield, the former No. 23 overall recruit in the 2013 class, has been dismissed by Notre Dame and Brian Kelly after his arrest over the weekend.

Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly dismissed senior safety Max Redfield from the football team and suspended senior cornerback Devin Butler indefinitely Sunday following a weekend that saw six Fighting Irish players arrested over two separate incidents.

Kelly also said that sophomore linebacker Te’Von Coney, freshman receiver Kevin Stepherson, sophomore cornerback Ashton White and sophomore running back Dexter Williams — the other four players arrested Friday night — will be subject to internal disciplinary measures within the team, which they will not be separated from.

Kelly added that the status of the players with the university and the football team can be impacted by the justice system and the university’s discipline.

Redfield, Coney, Stepherson, White and Williams were arrested Friday night in Fulton County (Indiana) after police stopped them for speeding. They each were charged with possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. Redfield, Stepherson and Williams were also charged with possession of a handgun without a license, also a misdemeanor.
