Clemson University police arrested a man they say followed a female student from downtown, entered a student residence hall and entered a woman’s room. The man was not a student or a university employee. Police said somebody let him in the residence hall without proper authorization. The woman fled to a friend’s room. Quincy Lashaxie Burt, 21, of Central, was charged with first-degree burglary.
Hope and Help for the Holidays and Beyond
A former football player for the University of South Carolina says the NCAA “breached its duty to protect NCAA football players.” In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Columbia former Gamecock defensive lineman Stanley Doughty is asking the NCAA to provide a medical monitoring fund for all former college football players who did not play in the NFL. Doughty, who lives in Louisiana, has “limited use of his right arm and a burning sensation, anxiety, irritability, depression, mood swings, inability to concentrate and sleeplessness,” according to the suit. The lawsuit also claims Doughty is at increased risk of latent brain injuries caused by repeated head impacts in his college football career and is “in need of medical monitoring.” The lawsuit claims Doughty twice suffered temporary paralysis after collisions on the football field, once during practice and the other during a game. Doughty entered the NFL draft after his junior year and went undrafted. The Kansas City Chiefs signed him as a free agent, but team doctors told him he could no longer play football because of a spinal injury that needed surgery to correct, the lawsuit claims. The lawsuit says the NCAA should have been aware of a growing body of research that links repeated head trauma and concussions with immediate and future medical problems. The NCAA failed to educate college football players about the risks, the lawsuit said.
