Nebraska's starting wide receiver Maurice Purify was arrested Saturday night in Lincoln. According to the Lincoln Police Department, Purify was arrested on two counts of assault and one count of resisting arrest.
Lincoln television channel KOLN/KGIN 10/11 reports that Purify assaulted a doorman of a bar after the doorman had denied Purify and an acquaintance admittance into the bar.
Bill Callahan and the athletic department have yet to comment on the situation. This is the second unfortunate incident for Nebraska during this off-season. In March, Sam Keller was cited for disturbing the peace after an argument over a parking spot.
Update - Bill Callahan has now issued a statement.

"Police say Purify threw a punch at the man. Police also say Purify also assaulted the man's girlfriend when she intervened. When police arrived, they say Purify didn't comply with their orders. Purify was taken to jail and was let out on bond early Sunday afternoon."
Purify led Nebraska with 630 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in 2006.Bill Callahan and the athletic department have yet to comment on the situation.

"I'm very concerned about this current situation. I am still in the process of gathering all the facts. I will determine the appropriate consequences when due process has transpired. Until such time, I will have no further comment regarding the situation."
oh he'll play next year, for sure. He'll just sit out during those oh-so critical early non-conf. games against Maine Tech or Wyoming State. Remember Larry Phillips?
Actually, their non-conference schedule includes Wake Forest, USC, Nevada, and Ball State, two of those being teams that played in BCS bowls. Maybe it won't be critical versus Ball State and Nevada, but if he doesn't play versus USC? Very critical.
yep, they have Nevada and WF prior to USC. I see a 2-game suspension on this and some community service during the summer.
oh, and regarding Purify's relation to CU's Purify, I got this from huskers.com.
Purify is an uncle of former Colorado tailback Bobby Purify. Maurice, the son of Mary Purify-Skillman, was born on Jan. 17, 1986.

Whatever happened with that nebraska player that OD'ed on something or other not to long ago. I don't recall what ever ended up happening with that.
Two offensive starters for Nebraska with off-the-field trouble recently. Not good for them.
Very interested to see how Callahan and Chizik handle their respective situations.

Let me guess...Callahan will slap him with a suspension which will conveniently end in time to play the Cyclones.
