ESPN.com's Heather Dinich writes about all things ACC in her conference blog.
Heading into this season, expectations were soaring for Surrency, a junior college transfer from El Camino Community College in California, but they have since been tempered. Surrency is a backup to Greg Carr and played his best games against FCS opponents Western Carolina and Chattanooga.
He has started one game this season and has eight catches for 158 yards and three touchdowns, but two of the scores came against UTC and one against Western Carolina.
Surrency was frustrated by dropped balls against N.C. State, but had one of his better performances with a leaping 31-yard catch that flashed the athleticism the staff had been so excited about.
It's the second time in as many weeks coach Bobby Bowden has suspended a receiver. Freshman Bert Reed missed last Saturday's win against Virginia Tech for skipping classes.
The Seminoles (6-1, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) share first place in the Atlantic Division with Maryland.
