STILLWATER — Oklahoma State running back Herschel Sims has been dismissed from the program for violation of team rules, coach Mike Gundy announced Friday.

Sims’ high school coach told the Tulsa World that the dismissal stems from a miscommunication about money between Sims and teammate Jeremiah Tshimanga.

According to an incident report filed with the OSU police department last month, Tshimanga says a fellow OSU student accessed his account at Stillwater National Bank without his permission and made two transactions worth $700.

Tshimanga, a freshman linebacker, told police on May 18 that the bank showed him two pictures of the transactions — one for $500 and another for $200 — that were made on April 27. Tshimanga identified the person making the transactions.
