NCAA suspends Heisman candidate Todd Gurley for signing autographs
The NCAA on Wednesday suspended star Georgia running back Todd Gurley for four games after he accepted $3,000 in exchange for autographs. Georgia indefinitely suspended Gurley earlier this month while investigating the incident, so the tailback will be eligible to return Nov. 15.
Prior to his suspension, Gurley was considered one of the early favorites to win the Heisman Trophy. Georgia said it would appeal the NCAA's ruling.
