Montana State Football Player Dismissed From Team Following Arrest For Assaulting Girlfriend

"At about 2 a.m., Knight confronted her, began yelling and threw a purse that struck her. He subsequently left with the bag, opened her wallet and took $85, saying it was payment for a broken necklace; the woman contended the necklace was broken when Knight had pushed her to the ground, which resulted in a large bruise on her upper right arm and scrapes to both elbows."

The purse hit the woman hard enough to make her bleed. According to the police report, White gave “vague” answers to police, but admitted to putting his hands on the woman because “she owed him and was upset about her breaking his personal property.” This is not the first time White has parted ways with a college football program.

White spent his freshman season at Nevada and went into 2013 Spring practices at the top of the depth chart. A week later he was transferring to Montana State. Knight and Wolf Pack coach Brian Polian decided to part ways for unspecified reasons following a short suspension for a violation of team rules. White rushed for 496 yards and 12 touchdowns with Montana State last season.
