Kansas basketballer Tyshawn Taylor is reportedly now a brawler. Taylor, a sophomore guard, was sent to a hospital Tuesday night after a fight broke out between basketball and football players, the Lawrence Journal-World reports.

Taylor was reportedly treated and released after the fight broke out in front of the Burge Union on campus Tuesday evening. The Journal-World reports that Taylor "suffered a dislocated thumb and would be out of action three to four weeks." No one else was injured, but Jayhawk nation is now divided.


No one has named names so far and KU is investigating.

Hey, save the hate for Missouri.

Update: Taylor has reportedly been updating his Facebook friends about his fight. At about 12:10 a.m. today, Taylor wrote: "I got a dislocated finger ..from throwing a punch ..so don't let the news paper gas yall up aite."

The Star reports, he previously posted these messages:

"real (racial slur)s do real things .. point plankn."

"keep

my name out ya' mouth for you get smacked in it," he wrote at 11:12

a.m. Tuesday, and 30 minutes later he posted, "never get outta

character .. I'm always a G about it."

"(racial slur)s be muggin me ..you know I'm mugging back."

Tip to Taylor: Facebook isn't so private. Shut up.
