College football | Florida State working on character problems, coach says

PINEHURST, N.C. -- Florida State football coach Jimbo Fisher says the Seminoles are "stepping up" their process of educating players about domestic violence and other issues after two high-profile allegations overshadowed the program in recent weeks.

Fisher says the team has started a four-step program to address the problems and that character-building exercises have been part of the Florida State football culture for years.

Running back Dalvin Cook has been suspended from the team indefinitely after it was alleged that he punched a woman outside a Tallahassee bar, which subsequently led to him being charged.
