Mixon was charged with one misdemeanor count of an act resulting in gross injury for his role in an altercation with another OU student in July 2014. According to the affidavit of probable cause, the freshman running back and Amelia Rae Molitor, 20, were engaged in a verbal and physical altercation at Pickelman's Gourmet Cafe in Norman, Okla. [Ed. Note: this is legalese for a plea deal for badly beating a woman.]
Stoops also told the media that linebacker Frank Shannon, suspended for one year by the school after a Title IX sexual assault investigation, will not be in spring practice but is expected to join the team in May.
