ANN ARBOR -- Csont'e York is no longer a member of Michigan's football program.

Michigan coach Brady Hoke announced Monday night that York, a 6-foot-3 sophomore wide receiver, has been dismissed from the team.

York currently faces three assault charges stemming from an incident outside an Ann Arbor bar last month where he violently punched a man, leaving him with a broken jaw in three places.

"Csont’e York has been dismissed from the Michigan football program," Hoke said in a released statement. "Representing the University of Michigan is a privilege and, while second chances are certainly deserved, sometimes it’s better for everyone if that happens somewhere else. Overall, I have been proud of how responsible our team has been this offseason and how hard they’ve worked to prepare for the season.”

On Aug. 3, Hoke announced that York had been indefinitely suspended for violating team standards. On Aug. 8, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor's Office -- following an investigation -- filed three assault charges against York. He faces two counts of assault or assault and battery, and one count of aggravated assault.

Last week, Ann Arbor police released a video of York punching a seemingly unsuspecting victim in the face outside of Scorekeepers Bar and Grille during the early morning hours of July 18.

The punch knocked out a tooth, broke the victim's jaw in three places and forced him to breathe through a tube for a short time afterward.

York, who told police he had "very little" to drink that night, then fled the scene on foot before being brought in by police three hours later.

York was with current Michigan wide receiver Da'Mario Jones outside the bar that night. York told police that a man "Pressed up on (Jones) face to face exchanging words for no reason. I got (nervous) and scared about the situation so I hit the guy. I punched him.”

Jones was questioned by police, but not charged.

Hours after the video was released last Tuesday, Hoke told reporters that York was still a part of the team, but remained suspended indefinitely. He then said Michigan was going to "go through the process" before ultimately deciding to remove him from the program Monday.

A 6-foot-3, 191-pound wide receiver from Chandler Park Academy, York appeared in one game at wide receiver for Michigan last season. He did not record a catch.

He is scheduled to be arraigned in Ann Arbor's 15th district court on Sept. 8.

York becomes the second player to be formally dismissed from the program during Hoke's tenure. Hoke booted former wide receiver Darryl Stonum off the team after Stonum violated probation stemming from a drunken driving arrest.
