EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Michigan State University head coach Mark Dantonio said Tuesday evening two of his football players have been dismissed from the team.

"Roderick Jenrette and Glenn Winston have been dismissed from the football team for violation of team rules," Dantonio said in a statement.

Winston already was out of action with a right knee injury.

Jenrette was lost for the rest of the regular season with a broken foot.

Winston was reinstated to the team in August. He had been indefinitely suspended after pleading guilty to misdemeanor assault charges over a fight that briefly left a Michigan State hockey player hospitalized.

Specifics of the reason for the players' dismissal were not given, but the announcement comes after a recent report of a large dorm fight that broke out at the university Sunday night.

Members of the Iota Phi Theta fraternity were hosting an event inside Rather Hall when witnesses told authorities about 20 men, allegedly some from the university’s football team, stormed in and started punching members of the fraternity.

Seven students were injured, some treated at Sparrow Hospital.

MSU freshman Edu Nweze witnessed the fight. He said his friend, who’s a member of the fraternity, was hit in the face.

"They ran in there and everybody in the fraternity got hit. Then they just left ... no one even had time to be like, 'Hey what's going on here?'" Nweze said. "I came down and there was blood down there. One of my close friends was bleeding and they took him to the hospital."

Witnesses told authorities the men who started the fight were looking for someone specific, and that the fact that person wasn’t there didn’t stop them from throwing punches.

A spokesperson for MSU confirmed the fight but would not reveal if any football players were involved, or if Jenrette and Winston were involved.

The spokesperson said the matter is still under investigation.
