Idaho State Suspends Player In Shoving Investigation

((HT: KBOI-TV))

This is just not a good story from Pocatello on any level...

Initially, ISU head coach Mike Kramer was being investigated for allegedly shoving a player during practice- which wasn't cool to begin with...

Senior WR Derek Graves filed a complaint with police after the incident and claims his neck was injured in the process.

Then, the story gets better...

Yesterday, Kramer suspended Graves for "violating team rules"- which translated into "being late for practice..." by Kramer. Graves' attorney, Donald Jackson, claims the action was retaliation for the charges. Jackson also told KBOI that his client still isn't cleared medically for practice yet, either.

All this a week after Kramer was suspended for violating school policy in the shoving investigation in the first place...

Make any sense...???
Thought so...

Here's the early story on the investigation...

TWTW: Big Numbers From Bison, Blazers, Nicholls, and Nebraska

((HT: Valleynewslive.com))

Here's where we wrap up all the big numbers on the scoreboard from the week that was... Prairie View A&M travelled all the way to the Fargodome for a paycheck.

They end their non-conference stretch with their worst start since 2002- when it was 0-6- with a 66-7 loss to North Dakota State. It was NDSU's highest offensive numbers since defeating Division II Concordia-St. Paul 66-7 in the 2006 season opener.

The Bison have been ranked No. 1 in the Division I-AA/FCS Coaches Top 25 the first three weeks of the season. Not that polls mean a whole lot right now, but bully for them...

Here's the Bison's blowout... Page Title - No value

In the NAIA, Belhaven University set school records in a 70-28 win over Campbellsville in Jackson, Mississippi. Points in a game, TD's, and PAT's now have new marks on campus as the Blazers get ready for Mid-South Conference competition.

Nicholls State had another week to remind themselves that Southland Conference action is a while from being in Thibodaux, Louisiana. So, the Colonels scheduled Evangel College and won 73-17.

Here's some postgame from Head Coach Charlie Stubbs...

Nebraska scheduled Idaho State as another pre-season warm-up at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln... and when you win 73-7 (as the easiest game in a lot of pools for who would score the most and least points this weekend), there isn't a whole lot to talk about...

So, we'll just show you the short version...
