Florida State Seminoles (official thread)

Florida State kicker arrested for alleged battery on law enforcement officer, resisting with violence

Conor McAneney joined the Seminoles team as a transfer in January

Florida State kicker Conor McAneney was arrested Wednesday in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on allegations of battery on a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer with violence and trespassing an occupied structure, according to Broward County jail records.

Court documents list the first two counts as third-degree felonies. Jail records showed McAneney was being held as of Thursday morning. All counts listed as pending and bond set at $0.00.

A Florida State spokesperson told Noles247 that McAneney has been suspended indefinitely from all team activities.

The arrest comes as Florida State is in the middle of its spring practice schedule. The team is not currently practicing and is scheduled to resume workouts next Tuesday, with additional practices set later next week and through the end of March.

McAneney joined Florida State as a transfer in January after spending the 2025 season at Division II Quincy University in Illinois. He appeared in 11 games as a placekicker and kickoff specialist, converting 7 of 10 field-goal attempts with a long of 45 yards. He also handled kickoffs, averaging 60.2 yards on 49 attempts with 16 touchbacks.

Originally from Northern Ireland, McAneney comes from a non-traditional football background and previously played Gaelic football before transitioning to American football.

Just sayin': Obviously McAneney didn't read the memo yet that advised all Free Shoes football players to only commit crimes within the jurisdiction of the Tallassee Police Department. The "get out of jail free pass" that they enjoy in Tallassee does not extend to other Florida police departments including those in Broward County.

NCAA - slowly ruining football (rules changes - merged)

NCAA softens targeting punishment: Committee nixes automatic suspensions for players

After more than a decade of complaints from coaches, the NCAA is eliminating the automatic carryover suspension for first-time offenders

The targeting rule in college football has long been a subject of discontent among coaches, and finally, change is coming to the penalty structure.

The Division I FBS Oversight Committee approved a one-year trial rule on Thursday that fundamentally reshapes targeting penalties. Now, first-time offenders will be allowed to participate in the next game, regardless of which half the foul occurs. Previously, players charged with targeting in the second half were booted from the game and suspended for the first half of the next game.

A player disqualified for targeting a second time during a season will be required to miss the first half of the next game. A third targeting penalty triggers a full-game suspension. No player in the FBS was charged with three targeting penalties in 2025.

Conferences will now also have the option to file an appeal for second offenses. The appeal can also include the player's first targeting foul. If the NCAA's national coordinator of football officials overturns the targeting foul, the player will not have to sit out the next game.

The baseline, in-game penalties remain. Players charged with targeting will be ejected for the remainder of the contest, and a 15-yard penalty will be assessed to the offending team. The NCAA implemented the targeting foul in 2008, and the ejection penalty was added in 2013. Conference offices have been allowed to appeal disqualification decisions made in the second half of games, further fueling coaches' campaign against the penalty structure.

John Mobley Jr. Already Eager to Get to Work for Better Close to Next Season for Ohio State Basketball​

“It's definitely fuel to the fire, and it's going to be motivation for me every day for the summer coming up and the work I'm ready to put in to make sure we get back in this position and go further next time,” Mobley said.

Ohio State is looking to the future much faster than it wanted after making its first NCAA Tournament in four years. But with Bruce Thornton off to start his professional career after setting the school’s all-time scoring record, Mobley will be the most seasoned returning guard heading into 2026-27 for the Buckeyes. And he’s already motivated to make that year a better one.

2027 OH OL Davis Seaman (Verbal Offer)

Pretty spot on. Brookside wanted $60,000 just to get in the door. Didn't even call Muirfield, as being as highly rated, entry fee has to be high, and when was in grad school, heard from friends that people were quitting, simply because the course was too hard. At my advanced age, want to have fun, and be a bit competitive (hey, with enough strokes I could be Tiger!). Funny story, we wanted a single story ranch.....then decided a basement might not be so bad. Saw this house, liked it, had daughter and realtor do a walk through, and could honestly 'see' daughter's smile as she described it. So we made an offer, was countered, and we accepted. Oh yeah, has a second story, two BR and full BA. So, bottom line is that we utterly caved. But most of our living will be on the ground floor. Just gotta figure how to get a net/projection set up in basement for those long cold winters....stay tuned.
