Grambling State Forfeit

The players on the Grambling State Football Team recently decided to end their week- long boycott and return to the football field. It came after the university decided to forfeit one of its road games against Jackson State, due to players who refused to travel. Before the incident this past Saturday, Grambling State had an 0-7 record with an even longer winless streak going back to last year. The players all agreed that returning back to the program would be the best decision for the school, the NCAA, and most importantly for themselves. Investigators and the NCAA are looking into further details, that could decide whether or not the school and its football program would receive sanctions or fines.
