COLLEGE FOOTBALL - ROSE BOWL
Game #473-474
TEXAS - Reports indicate Several football players from The University of Texas are being
investigated by the Austin Police Department for robbery by assault, according to
sources close to the investigation. The investigation stems from two incidents on
Sept. 4 and December 10. The two incidents involve robbery by assault. Sources
tell us that the victims are telling police they were downtown when they were
beaten up and robbed of their money. There have been no arrests and no indictments
in the investigations, but the cases have been turned over to the district
attorney's office for further review. At least three of the players may be
starters for the Longhorn team, sources say. The Texas Longhorns are ranked No. 2
in the nation and are set to play USC for the National Championship in the Rose Bowl
on Jan. 4. It remains unclear what impact these criminal investigations will have
on the team's starting line-up.
