Without further ado ... the Royce White video

Gophers freshman forward Royce White promised to tell the "REAL Royce White Story" via YouTube. But his video just shows him working out.

Via Twitter, Royce White, who is sidelined indefinitely due to legal issues, promised a YouTube video that would reveal "100% truth."

"REAL Royce White Story" From me. Coming 10pm Youtube tonight. 100% truth since nobody else wants to. Immm Back!!!" White wrote on his Twitter page Wednesday morning.

But when he finally posted the video Thursday morning, it didn't reveal anything about his playing status. It does show, however, that he's still working out, even though he's not participating in team activities right now.

White, who hasn't said much since he was suspended for a Mall of America incident in October (he pled guilty to shoplifting and disorderly conduct last week), wrote this on Facebook when he posted the video:

"SHOUT OUT TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS ME, MY FAMILY, FRIENDS, TEAMMATES, GOPRHER FANS, AND WETBALL NATION. I GOT SOMETHING SPEACIAL BREWING FOR US. SPEACIAL THANKS TO FREDDY, QUES, NAVEED, STAX AND EMILIO."

Here's the video (Caution: Language):

The Gophers played with more urgency, but it wasn’t enough to keep them from another conference sweep, and they lost LJ Mooney to injury in the process.
