05/03/2010 - Ames, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Iowa State guard Charles Boozer has decided to leave the team to seek treatment for undisclosed reasons.
"I want to apologize for my actions that put Iowa State University in a negative light," Boozer said in a statement on Monday. "I have decided that the best course action right now is to finish my semester and then seek treatment."
The 6-foot-3 junior's announcement comes after he was reportedly arrested Saturday on charges of assault. According to The Ames Tribune, Boozer was arrested after a woman informed police that he slapped and kicked her.
"After visiting with Charles last night, I feel that his decision to leave the program is in the best interest for both parties," said new Iowa State head coach Fred Hoiberg. "Charles had a terrible lapse in judgment and I sincerely hope that he learns from his mistake and can land on his feet."
Boozer averaged 3.5 points 1.5 rebounds in 16 games last season before a torn ACL ended his season.
He is the younger brother of Utah Jazz star Carlos Boozer.

Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
