TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -Florida State offensive Daron Rose is ineligible for
the season and will attend a junior college.
Rose, who started 11 games last season, will attempt to regain his
eligibility, school officials said Wednesday.
Rose's departure is the second this week for the Seminoles, who are coming
off consecutive 7-6 seasons. Sophomore linebacker Marcus Ball, another
projected starter, was released from his scholarship Monday.
Star receiver Preston Parker is ineligible until he resolves a felony gun
charge.
Coach Bobby Bowden, and his designated successor Jimbo Fisher, will also
begin the season without a half dozen of his top players for the first three
games because of a classroom cheating scandal in a music history class.
