IU lifts Darius Latham's suspension, he'll play vs. Penn State

BLOOMINGTON -- Junior defensive tackle Darius Latham's suspension, which cost him the Hoosiers' loss against No. 1 Ohio State last Saturday, has been lifted.

The program announced in a press release Friday afternoon that Latham, a North Central alum, traveled with the Hoosiers to State College and will participate in tomorrow's game against Penn State. Latham has been dressed for practice this week, per videos posted to the program's Snapchat account.

IU coach Kevin Wilson has been tight-lipped about Latham's suspension since it was announced last week, consistently referring back to a similar statement released when it began. The announcement distributed via email Friday said "there will be no further comment on this matter."

Latham has 10 tackles, five for loss, and two sacks in three games so far this season. He was also suspended for the Hoosiers' season opener against Southern Illinois.
