Just another example that nothing good can happen in a nightclub after midnight. :tsk:
Just glad they all appear to be ok.
HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- Police say three University of Southern Mississippi football players were shot early Sunday during a fight at a nightclub, and all three are in fair condition at a local hospital.
Hattiesburg police spokesman Sgt. Allen Murray says linebackers Martez Smith and Tim Green and defensive end Deddrick Jones were shot just after 1:30 a.m.
No arrests have been made.
Murray had previously said the fight took place at Remington's Hunt Club. He says the fight started inside the club, then spilled out into the parking lot, where the players were shot.
Smith, a 22-year-old, fifth-year senior, was the team's starting middle linebacker before a season-ending knee injury last month. Jones, a 23-year-old junior, has started all 10 games, and Green, a 21-year-old junior, has played in seven games as a backup.
Southern Miss tightened the race for the Conference USA East division title with a 31-21 win Saturday over host Central Florida, which had been ranked in The Associated Press' Top 25 for the first time, at 25th.
