Suspended safety Christian Scott has pleaded no contest on his Class A misdemeanor assault charge, and has been reinstated to the team by head coach Mack Brown. Brown, who suspended Scott on Aug. 8 indefinitely until the senior’s legal situation had been resolved, said Scott will have to sit out Texas’ first three games against Rice, BYU and UCLA, but that he would be allowed to practice with the Longhorns’ scout team during that period. “We’re disappointed any time once of our players makes a poor decision, and Christian understands he made a mistake,” Brown said in a statement. “He has taken responsibility, is accepting the consequences of his actions and has returned to the team. He will be working with the scout team until he is eligible to play.” Scott was arrested Aug. 8 after an altercation involving a woman who was trying to repossess his car. In addition to the three-game suspension, Scott’s no-contest plea also will include two years’ deferred adjudication —- meaning there will be consequences should there be any additional arrests during that time —- and 40 hours of community service. Scott also will have to attend a stress management course as well as pay restitution to the victim and to cover court costs.

He doesn't start anymore but should give Texas some great depth.

I know I'm going to catch some lip for this (Chris Rainey) but you put your hands on a woman I don't give a flying fuck who she is or what she's doing and you're fucking gone as far as I'm concerned. No excuse, period.

Oh and pay your shit son.
