http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=4393657Oklahoma State freshman safety Joe Mitchell has been sent home amid allegations that coaches at his high school might have tampered with his academic transcripts. Those allegations have left three of Mitchell's football coaches at Katy Morton Ranch High School near Houston, including his high school head football coach, on administrative leave with the school district. Oklahoma State officials allowed Mitchell to practice on Monday, but decided to send him home as his transcripts were scrutinized by the NCAA clearinghouse. "Joe Mitchell is heading back to Houston," Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy told reporters after practice on Tuesday. "He's got some personal issues he's got to take care of. We learned more today about it. I'm not sure anybody knows, in detail, where they're at. "But as for now, he has to work through those issues before he can come back here. Hopefully, it could be within the next few weeks. If not, then we'd certainly like to get him back in January." Mitchell was a quarterback and a safety at Katy Morton Ranch High, producing 63 tackles and four interceptions as a senior. He likely would have been redshirted with the Cowboys if he had remained in their program this season. The Houston Chronicle reported that an investigation began when Katy administrators were told by Texas' University Interscholastic League that three Morton Ranch coaches might have violated district policies, including student records, possible misuse of funds and eligibility.

this affects recent TCU commit QB Sam Carter as well apparently who just transferred into Morton Ranch from I believe Sharpstown

I don't think Carter is being allowed to even work out at Katy for the time being. At least until this is cleared up. Doesn't seem fair to the kid unless there is a question about his transfer grades or something. Just seems weird.
When will I start feeling stimulated??

Also effects TCU signee Michael Venson who has not been allowed to report until he gets cleared. Latest reports out of Morton Ranch are about a teacher having sex with a student in the spring. Some message boards have been saying it was a recently divorced wife of one of the suspended coaches  . First it was the cheerleader hazing, then the grade fixing & now teachers having sex with students. Sounds like they need to clean up more than the coaching staff down there.

Think back on all your teachers and consider how many physically interested you. Of all the teachers in 16 years of education, I can think of 3. But 2 of those 3 - - - - - - -
