, helped the Longhorns make a run to the Elite Eight last season before he transferred to Kansas this offseason. The school suspended him in mid-September after he'd been the subject of a sexual assault investigation at McCarthy Hall, where KU basketball players live on campus. Although he wasn't mentioned in the incident report, the Kansas City Star reported that he was the subject of the investigation.
Last month, an 18-year-old woman from Missouri reported an alleged rape in the men's basketball dorm, per police documents. Three other players -- Johnny Furphy, Elmarko Jackson and Nick Timberlake -- were mentioned in the incident report as witnesses and"other," respectively, but a source told the Kansas City Star they were not"remotely" involved in the incident.
Morris' suspension earlier this month happened hours after he'd entered a plea deal that canceled an October trial that had been set for a misdemeanor assault charge against him. Last summer, he was arrested when an ex-girlfriend accused him of assaulting her after they'd broken up before the start of last season.
Earlier this month, Chris Gaston, Morris' agent, told ESPN that the college basketball standout would speak"when the time is right."
