FSU Coach Jimbo Fisher Says Seminoles Working on Problems

Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher says the Seminoles are "stepping up" their process of educating players about domestic violence and other issues, after a pair of 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 FSU 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. That news came not long after freshman quarterback De'Andre Johnson was kicked off the team after video showed him punching a woman in the face in a bar.

Fisher says that it's not just a Florida State problem, "but a national problem."
