Even though a Tulsa Public Schools suspension committee recommended star athlete Prentiss Elliott be allowed back in school, the TSST principal appealed that decision to the superintendent's office.

That means the school board will have to make the decision. Elliott was suspended after he and a police officer had a physical confrontation at a basketball game between TSST and Memorial.

Prosecutors have not filed charges against Elliott at this time.
