Gophers suspend 4 from team over rape incident

by Michele Hriciso

Minnesota suspended cornerback Dominic Jones and three other players for their alleged involvement in the rape of an 18-year-old woman.

Jones is the only one charged in the incident so far, which was videotaped on a cellphone and then erased. Investigators were able to recover part of the erased video, and there is DNA evidence linking Jones to the crime.

And yet another college football career is derailed by serious criminal allegations.

You would think these guys, smart enough get into college and to learn a football playbook, would be smart enough to stay out of trouble. It seems that once the party starts, the common sense ends.
