TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida State says quarterback Deondre Francois is no longer a member of the team.
FSU head coach Willie Taggart said in a statement Sunday that he had notified Francois of his decision the night before.
"Last night, I informed Deondre Francois that he is no longer a member of the Florida State football program. As we build a new culture and foundation for FSU Football, we have high expectations for all of our student-athletes and we will not shy away from those high standards of conduct. We are moving forward as a program."
Taggart's decision to drop Francois from the team comes a day after the quarterback's girlfriend posted a video to Instagram alleging abuse by Francois.
The Tallahassee Democrat reports that the video shows neither Francois nor the girlfriend, but a woman can be heard saying, "Stop hitting me" and "Stop hitting me in my .... face."
A man can be heard saying "I'm going to hit you in your face every ... time."
