Dez Bryant wrote a message on his Facebook page today that confirmed what some have suspected: Bryant’s suspension was the result of Oklahoma State trying to end his relationship with Deion Sanders, not an NCAA rules violation.

Bryant’s message on Facebook, via THE BIG LEAD:

This is why I’m suspended…..I went to Deion sanders house ….and the NCAA found out…..they ask me if I been to his house I told them no…I thought it was a violation…but it wasn’t… so I told them I went to his house… I lied to …them and I shouldn’t have….and I’m not suspended for the rest of the season….I’m sorry osu!!

So Bryant gets a hand-slap in order to get him to STOP TALKING TO DEION. I’m guessing he’ll only miss this Saturday’s game at Texas A&M. And most likely it isn’t a coincidence that the Cowboys have a relatively easy game this week.

Also, it appears Bryant has deleted his Facebook account. At least at the moment, I can’t access his page.
