Saturday, December 16 Gophers won't speculate about possible suspensions Associated Press | |||
MINNEAPOLIS -- The University of Minnesota is investigating
a report that some football players stole and used a university
employee's telephone calling card.
"Frank Kara, our compliance officer, and another member of the
university general counsel are looking into it," athletics
director Tom Moe said Friday. "Early indication is the calling
card number was taken from, stolen from, a staff person at the
university."
Moe said the investigation began a week ago and could be
completed shortly. He wouldn't say how many Gophers football
players were involved or identify them but did say "early
indication is some were."
Moe also wouldn't say whether the investigation could lead to
players being suspended from the Dec. 28 Micron-pc.com Bowl game
against North Carolina State.
