LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) -Texas Tech team captain Brandon Carter is back from his suspension for violating team rules. Tech spokeman Chris Cook says the guard practiced Sunday for the first time in more than a week. Tech hasn't released details of what led to the suspension. The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reported that Carter threw his helmet and loudly criticized coaches after a Sept. 19 loss at Houston, but Cook told The Associated Press on Monday he couldn't confirm that report. Carter was one of the Tech players who had a Twitter page before coach Mike Leach banned them, but the suspension was unrelated. Tech beat New Mexico 48-28 last weekend and faces Kansas State at home Saturday.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
