Tennessee suspends G Ruby Whitehorn after domestic assault arrest

Tennessee suspended guard Ruby Whitehorn indefinitely following her arrest this month on a pair of felony charges, including domestic assault.
Whitehorn is being held out of all team activities, a spokesperson told the Knoxville News Sentinel and other outlets. Her attorney said she will plead not guilty to charges of domestic assault and aggravated burglary at her preliminary hearing on Sept. 5.
Whitehorn, 21, was arrested Aug. 8 in North Knox County, Tenn., after allegedly getting into a physical altercation with a woman outside that woman's residence.
When the woman was able to get back into her home, Whitehorn allegedly followed her. She kicked in the front door and then the door to a bedroom where the woman had tried to take cover. Whitehorn also allegedly smashed a bedroom mirror.
Whitehorn said the alleged victim took her passport and cellphone and she wanted to retrieve her belongings, according to law enforcement records.
Whitehorn is a guard entering her senior season. She was an ACC All-Freshman selection in 2022-23 at Clemson. After a second season at Clemson, she transferred to Tennessee and started 28 of 34 games, averaging 11.6 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game.
