accomplish all season.The Cyclones finally found their ground game in last weeks
win at Kansas and theyre hoping that blueprint can help them finish yet another
lost season on a high note.Iowa State (2-8, 1-6 Big 12) rushed for 238 yards on
46 carries in a 31-24 victory over the Jayhawks that snapped a five-game losing
skid. True freshman David Montgomery led the way with a career-high, 169-yard
effort that earned him Big 12 newcomer of the week honors.Montgomery and the
Cyclones host Texas Tech (4-6, 2-5) Saturday as part of a two-game home stand to
close out 2016.A lot of what David has done is a credit to his process and his
work ethic. I really appreciate his detail and maturity, Iowa State coach Matt
Campbell said. Hes really worked hard at studying the game on film and being
locked in.Despite a makeshift offensive line, Iowa State thought it had a chance
to be a decent running team because it had Mike Warren, the nations leading
freshman running back in 2015.But with Warren struggling with an ankle injury,
Montgomery stepped in and gave the Cyclones a welcome boost.Montgomery, a
Cincinnati native who rushed for 41 touchdowns on 10.1 yards per carry as a high
school senior a year ago, was one of the most promising players in Campbells
first recruiting class. Campbell immediately saw Montgomerys speed as an asset
for a program with needs across the board.Montgomery averaged at least four
yards per carry in each of his first seven Big 12 games. He is at 5.1 yards per
carry overall, despite not getting much of a chance to develop the rhythm that
comes with extended playing time.The promise Montgomery showed in a 34-24 loss
to No. 8 Oklahoma two weeks ago came to fruition against the Jayhawks. He
averaged seven yards a carry as Iowa State scored 28 of the games final 38
points.At some point you go with the hot hand too. And he had the hot hand,
Campbell said. The tenacity that he was running with on Saturday led us to say
that we really (keep) giving the ball to the guy whos really running well.But
the most surprising development in Iowa States rushing attack has been the rise
of walk-on Mitchell Harger.Harger, a redshirt senior from Alburnett, Iowa, a
town of less than 1,000 people, spent his first three years with the Cyclones as
a special teams player. His only notable moment came last year at West Virginia,
when he converted a fake punt.But with Iowa State trailing Kansas 24-16,
Campbell gave Harger a chance as a lead back for one series.Harger ran the ball
eight times out of nine plays, driving Iowa State down the field before scoring
from six yards out on third-and-goal.Harger might not play much more this season
as Warren gets healthier and Montgomery continues to improve. But Hargers work
ethic and attitude have rubbed off on a team still learning what it takes to win
consistently.He comes in here every single day and he hasnt complained once,
wide receiver Allen Lazard said. Hes always worked extremely hard. Hes just
happy to be here. It just makes me appreciate my life because I am a scholarship
guy.---More college football at

leading rusher kept adding to his gaudy numbers this season and scored the
winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play. The New Westminster, B.C.,
native plowed three yards into the end zone for the last score of a heated,
see-saw battle between the two teams with the best records in the CFL. When the
NFL came out with its new personal conduct policy in 2014, it stated that
violations of the policy involving domestic violence would get a baseline
six-game suspension for a first offense, considering any aggravating or
mitigating factors.On Wednesday, the NFL announced a one-game suspension for
kicker Josh Brown, stemming from a domestic violence arrest last year. The
police report, which was obtained by ESPN, is disturbing. On May 22, 2015 (the
second straight night the police were called to their house), police took the
statement of the alleged victim, who claimed there was a history of abuse that
included 20 incidents of physical violence. The officer on the scene wrote in
his report that he believed Brown assaulted her that night.She appeared to be
genuinely scared of her husband Joshua, the officer wrote. She seemed very
embarrassed to tell me the details of her husbands [sic] history of abusing
her.Five days later, Brown said, the charges were dropped.Brown, 37, said he
informed the Giants of the charge the day of the incident, and a team spokesman
confirmed they knew of the incident. The Giants said they did not conduct their
own investigation into the arrest, but they said they were aware of the
specifics of the report and re-signed Brown during an active NFL investigation.
A source told ESPNs Dan Graziano the victim refused multiple requests to be
interviewed by the NFL for its investigation.Brown and the NFL Players
Association appealed that one-game suspension, and arbiter Harold Henderson
recently upheld the punishment.A one-game suspension is curious and hearkens
back to the days when domestic violence wasnt taken seriously. Of course things
have changed, and respected former prosecutor Lisa Friel vetted Browns case for
the NFL and recommended one game. As part of investigating, the NFL would have
looked up police reports, sought out a record of past infractions and
interviewed witnesses. But what could be the factor that mitigates five games
from the baseline?The NFLs code of conduct policy names the aggravating factors
that could increase a suspension, such as use of a gun or harming a pregnant
partner. But the league doesnt specify or name any mitigating factors.What this
case shows is that domestic violence is an incredibly complex and complicated
issue, said Anna Isaacson, the NFLs vice president of social
responnsibility.dddddddddddd It would be wonderful if it was easy to explain. We
dont profess to know everything, but we profess to try to get it right. I hope
that what weve done in the last two years shows that were committed to this
issue and fans can trust that.The issue is, it isnt easy for fans, players or
personnel to determine what mitigates a penalty, or how a baseline of six games
can be whittled down to one. The NFL seemingly set a firm policy, and this
suspension casts some doubt on how porous that baseline is.Brown, the league and
the NFL Players Association have all declined to name the mitigating factors in
this case.Everybodys known, everybodys been a part of it, Brown said. You know,
guys have been very supportive, guys from around the league, ex-coaches, players
that know my character. Ive been very supported through the process. Like we
said, this has been a year and Ive had to play with this over my head, and Ive
continued to play well and I will continue to play well.Giants head coach Ben
McAdoo reiterated his hard line on domestic violence -- while at the same time
offering support for Brown.We support the league office in their decision and
their stance on personal conduct, McAdoo said. I do support Josh as a man, a
father, and a player. We treat these situations on a case-by-case basis.But
theres no harmony between zero tolerance and signing players who are being
investigated for domestic violence. The one-game suspension without a more
concrete explanation undermines the very point of the revamped code of conduct.
Players and personnel need a firm understanding of what constitutes a penalty.
How easy will it be for the next player arrested on a charge to point to Browns
case as a new metric?The process was put into place, said Rita Smith, an
activist who consults with the NFL on issues of domestic violence and education.
Lisa Friel does what she does, and a one-game suspension was what they found. Im
sure there are going to be some this isnt serious reactions in my own field. Ill
have to account for that.Browns one-game suspension adds a shade of gray to the
NFLs domestic violence policy and allows for more judgment calls, when the
initial idea was to set a firm standard and be clear about it.
