Xavier Guillory TD

Idaho State receiver Xavier Guillory jogs into the end zone for a 71-yard touchdown reception against Cal Poly.

Idaho State receiver Xavier Guillory, who was arrested the night of Oct. 28 on a misdemeanor driving under the influence charge, has been suspended for ISU's final game of the season Saturday afternoon against No. 21 Idaho, according to an ISU spokesman.

Pocatello police could not collect a valid Breathalyzer sample when they arrested Guillory, which is why they obtained a warrant for a blood test to determine if Guillory's blood-alcohol content was over the legal limit of 0.08%. ISU had decided that until the test came back, Guillory would continue to play, and he did. But Guillory's BAC came back over the limit ahead of this weekend's game, per a source with knowledge of the situation, and he will not play in Saturday's game.

Guillory dressed for warm-ups, but he will not play in the game.

Court records indicate Guillory was charged with first offense misdemeanor DUI on Oct. 28, then was released from Bannock County Jail on a $1,000 bond.

At the time of his arrest, Guillory had played in all eight games, hauling in 45 passes for 751 yards and four touchdowns. His 5.6 receptions per game ranked fifth in the Big Sky Conference and his 93.9 receiving yards per game ranked second. In his two games since, Guillory totaled two receptions for 13 yards against UC Davis, and five receptions for 21 yards against No. 7 Weber State.
