The NFL’s Problems Begin in Academia: The view from FSU

A month ago, the UW Athletic Department gave its quarterback, Cyler Miles from Denver, a pass … punishing him with a one game suspension after he admitted participating in an assault on two fans of the Seahawks.  How this man did not even get charged with a misdemeanor by the Seattle Police is a mystery that is now protected because student rec9ords at the UW are not subject to public disclosure requests.  Happily for Mr. Miles and the Husky team, his record so far this season is better on the field than on the police blotter.

An insight into how this sort of thing happens may come from a report on how Florida State University hampered Jameis Winston investigation.  “Florida State University officials and Tallahassee police took steps to both hide, and then hinder, the criminal investigation into a rape allegation against the school’s Heisman-trophy winning quarterback Jameis Winston last fall, a FOX Sports investigation has found.”

Meanwhile FSU is so far undefeated this season.SSU
