Miami starting linebacker Ramon Buchanan, looking all kinds of cuddly here in his official team photo, has been fully reinstated to the Hurricanes by Al Golden, ending his weeks-long suspension following a March arrest. Buchanan was arrested in a Coconut Grove bar on March 18, and charged with two felonies (resisting a police officer with violence, battery on a police officer) and three misdemeanors (resisting a police officer without violence, disorderly conduct, and trespassing), but Golden seems very confident with his decision:
