UH drops Ray Bass from roster

Defensive back Ray Bass is no longer on the University of Hawai'i football team's roster.

Bass, a second-year freshman from Corona, Calif., did not play in last week's 49-41 victory over Northwestern. He did not practice yesterday. UH coach June Jones said Bass will not play in Saturday's regular-season finale against Michigan State.

Jones said Bass remains on the team but "I can't really comment" on the situation.

Bass has been removed from the UH team roster distributed to the media.

At the Nike Combine in Los Angeles in 2002, Bass ran 40 yards in 4.31 seconds and had a vertical jump of 40.4 inches.

He chose UH over California, Arizona and Colorado.

He quit the team last season, but rejoined shortly thereafter and remained on football scholarship.

Bass has played in six games at cornerback this season, starting against Idaho.
