Sometimes when soccer players bop the ball off of their head, it seems pretty badass. When Washington State University defensive tackle Andy Roof headbutted some guy at a party and was dismissed from the football team, it seemed stupid.

According to the Seattle Post Intelligencer:

Washington State's football team took several hits Tuesday when troubled defensive tackle Andy Roof was kicked out of school and fifth-year senior Dan Rowlands quit football because of shoulder pain as the Cougars prepared for Saturday's season opener against Oklahoma State.

Roof, a senior, was arrested for investigation of assault last April, accused of head-butting a man at a party. He had already missed last season after he was kicked out of school for alcohol offenses.

Coach Paul Wulff said the student conduct board at WSU decided to dismiss Roof, a 6-foot-9, 299-pound senior from Spokane.

"Obviously he was in our rotation," Wulff said. "It's going to have an impact, no question. The team is already very thin in a lot of areas."

… Wulff said so many young players are starting because the team lacks depth.

Now that Roof has been kicked off the team, he should have plenty of time to drink and headbutt people, which is really every college student’s fantasy.
