Gamecocks' Mangus pays fine to settle charge

South Carolina quarterbacks coach G.A. Mangus has paid a $470 fine to settle a public nuisance charge that got him suspended from the team for a week and cost him more than $14,000 in salary.

Court records show Mangus paid the fine last week, just 13 days after Greenville police arrested him after an officer caught him urinating on the street outside a bar.

Mangus was suspended after his arrest July 26, but coach Steve Spurrier let him return to the team when practice started Aug. 3. Mangus did lose a month's pay and will be on probation the rest of his career with the Gamecocks.

Mangus has not spoken to reporters since his arrest.
