Wisc. coach still won't explain suspensions

MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema says suspended safeties Aubrey Pleasant and Shane Carter have been removed from the team's 105-player roster and will not be reinstated before camp ends.

But Bielema on Sunday still would not explain why the fifth-year seniors were indefinitely suspended.

The suspensions leave junior Jay Valai as the starter at strong safety and senior Chris Maragos as the starter at free safety.

Bielema said if Carter and Pleasant are not reinstated, the team will "just live with 103" players.
