PULLMAN, Wash. -- Leaders of Washington State University met Thursday with Pullmans police chief to discuss recent incidents involving Cougar football players, with both sides saying the meeting was productive.Washington State President Kirk Schulz and Director of Athletics Bill Moos met with Chief Gary Jenkins in Schulzs office.The meeting came two days after football Coach Mike Leach suggested his players were being unfairly targeted by law enforcement.On Monday, police arrested one Washington State player on suspicion of assault, and recommended that assault charges be filed against another player in a separate incident.Police are also investigating a large fight earlier in the summer allegedly involving multiple unnamed football players and students.Moos said it was a chance for the three leaders to discuss the recent incidents and gain a better understanding of processes and procedures.We certainly respect the task facing law enforcement and throughout my tenure as athletic director, have made every effort to fully cooperate with local authorities, Moos said. I am encouraged as we move forward that we will continue to have an open line of communication and allow the full legal process to play out to ensure fairness is given to all involved.Leach complained Tuesday night about three recent incidents that led to assault investigations by police. He said hes concerned the only people being accused of crimes in the incidents are football players.Jenkins denied Wednesday that his officers are picking on players, saying they treat everyone the same.Jenkins said Thursday that the meeting went well. I would describe our relationship beforehand as very good, and I dont see any change in that, he said.The parties discussed how police investigate cases and why some investigations take longer than others, Jenkins said.On Tuesday night, Leach read a prepared statement after practice in which he contended that police seemed to be focusing on his players. Comments to the media have distorted the facts and already condemned football players in the court of public opinion, he said.Many of the statements are incomplete or totally false, Leach said. Im going to do what I should have done in the first place, which is presume them innocent until proven guilty.Washington State students and staff dominate Pullman, a town of about 30,000 people. Students make up two-thirds of the population, Jenkins said.Leachs team has struggled this season, losing to Eastern Washington and Boise State in the first two games. On Monday, Leach lashed out at his players for not being tough enough. Rigoberto Sanchez Jersey .

Adam Vinatieri Jersey . -- Its been a long road back for Sean Bergenheim. MADISON, Wis. -- A fourth-quarter flourish erased memories of a jittery first half for No. 6 Wisconsin against Minnesota.The latest installment of the most-played rivalry in major college football ended with a familiar scene: the Badgers triumphantly holding up Paul Bunyans Axe.Corey Clement ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns and a big-play defense pitched a second-half shutout in a 31-17 win over the Golden Gophers to keep the trophy for a 13th straight season.Wisconsin (10-2, 7-2 Big Ten, No. 5 AP) turned in a stalwart defensive effort in the second half after getting outplayed early and falling behind by 10 points at halftime.In the fourth quarter we just kind of just locked in, cornerback Sojourn Shelton said after the ceremonial chopping down of the goal posts with the axe. You know what, no more. The rest speaks for itself.The comeback served as the exclamation point for an already big weekend. The Badgers wrapped up the Big Ten West and a trip to next weeks league title game after Nebraska lost to Iowa on Friday night.The Badgers will face Penn State in Indianapolis.Tomorrow well push the reset button and get ready to play Penn State, coach Paul Chryst said. This team has done a great job of playing in the moment.Mitch Leidner threw four interceptions in the second half for Minnesota (8-4, 5-4). The protection around him crumbled as the Badgers mixed up their defensive pressures.Im pretty (angry.) I dont know how else to describe it, Leidner said. He finished 9 of 26 for 158 yards with a touchdown.On offense, Wisconsins running game finally caught up in the fourth quarter.Jazz Peavy went 71 yards on a jet sweep down the right sideline to the Minnesota 11. Two plays later, Clement bowled into the end zone from 2 yards to give Wisconsin the lead for good, 24-17, with 6:42 left.Certainly the takeaways were huge, and the ability of our offense to finish in the second half, Chryst said.It was the 126th meeting in a series that dates to 1890.THE TAKEAWAYMinnesota: The rough fourth quarter overshadowed a terrific first half for Minnesota. Leidner threw off the Badgers active defense early with keepers around the edges, including his scoring run late in the first half. Leidner also had 46 yards rushing on 16 carries.But the interceptions shifted momentum.ddddddddddddMost of the time he was trying to do too much, coach Tracy Claeys said about Leidners picks.A five-win season in the Big Ten, even with a softer schedule, is a confidence builder for the future. But the Gophers still cant catch up to their biggest measuring stick.Wisconsin: The Badgers had perhaps their worst first half of the season, with Minnesota following Wisconsins blueprint for success. The defense missed key tackles, and the running game couldnt get going. Left-handed starting quarterback Alex Hornibrook departed after taking a shot to his right shoulder following an incompletion near the sideline late in the second quarter. Hornibrook then fell to the turf, with the back of his helmet slamming hard into the ground.Chryst had no update on Hornibrook after the game. Backup quarterback Bart Houston played the entire second half and finished 9 of 14 for 123 yards.POLL IMPLICATIONSWith No. 3 Michigan losing in double overtime to No. 2 Ohio State, Wisconsin could move up a spot or two in the next poll.TURNING POINTShelton, a four-year starter playing in his last home game, had two interceptions. The senior had an entertaining 40-yard, across-the-field return to the Minnesota 19 after his first interception with about 13 minutes left.Shelton said he guessed that Minnesota would run a comeback route.I just took a risk and went for it, Shelton said.Clement scored his first touchdown of the game three plays later to tie it at 17.CATCHING ONFor Minnesota, Drew Wolitarsky had four catches for 76 yards, including a 35-yard reception after tipping the ball to himself and advancing to the Wisconsin 22 late it the second quarter. It set up Leidners 3-yard touchdown run with 53 seconds left for a 17-7 halftime lead.UP NEXT:Minnesota: Awaits its bowl destination. The Gophers will play in its fifth consecutive bowl game, tied for longest streak in program history.Wisconsin: Plays No. 7 Penn State in the Big Ten championship game Dec. 3 in Indianapolis.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25---Follow Genaro Armas at: https://twitter.com/GArmasAP Cheap Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys China Discount NFL Jerseys Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Wholesale China NFL Gear Stitched Jerseys Discount Jerseys Cheap NFL T-shirts Cheap Jerseys 2019 Black China NFL Jerseys Discount NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys 2020 ' ' '
