Boykin was involved in a fight at a bar and then allegedly struck a bicycle patrol officer early Thursday morning in San Antonio. Boykin was charged with felony assault and has been suspended for Saturday’s Alamo Bowl against Oregon. He posted a $5,000 bond and was released from custody late Thursday morning. “Clearly, this was not an appropriate way to act”, McManus said of Boykin’s behavior.

He sat out against Oklahoma game but returned for the TCU’s regular-season finale, an overtime victory over Baylor that was played in heavy rain.
