Former Iowa State WR P.J. Harris charged with strangling his girlfriend
Former Iowa State receiver P.J. Harris was arrested and charged with strangling his girlfriend, and is currently being held in jail without bond.
Harris was booked on charges of aggravated domestic assault/strangulation after his girlfriend alleged he pushed her against a wall, threw her on a bed and began to strangle her Thursday morning. Police arrested Harris that evening and officers noticed scratches on the victim.
Ten days earlier, Harris had been dismissed from the Iowa State football team for a violation of unspecified team rules.
Harris was considered one of the team’s potential standout receivers before suffering a season-ending broken leg in September. At the time of his injury, Harris had nine catches for 55 yards, which tied for second on the team.
The school had not publicly announced Harris’ dismissal and it only came out after his arrest.

Possible NCAA violation discovered in Vanderbilt rape case testimony
Could a rape trial involving former Vanderbilt football players uncover NCAA violations?
According to testimony in the case involving former Vanderbilt football players, alcohol consumed on the night of the alleged incident was purchased by a possible booster. The purchase would be an impermissible benefit under NCAA guidelines if Angela Gentry meets the NCAA's definition of a booster.
The alleged victim in the case testified under oath that a booster purchased drinks for Commodores football players on June 23, 2013, a violation of the NCAA’s “extra benefits” rule.
Bylaw 16.02.3 rule states that athletes may not be provided with money, gifts, loans, flowers or other items from anyone representing an institution, including fans.
Angela Gentry, who is from West Palm Beach, Fla., was identified in earlier court filings as being a person who picked up the alcohol tab for Vanderbilt players. She could meet the NCAA’s definition for a booster.
In an interview with The Tennessean in June 2014, Gentry admitted to having met one of the accused former players, Brandon Vandenburg, once. Gentry denied regularly buying drinks for athletes, but said it may have happened on occasion.
It's unclear if the NCAA would investigate the incident and possibly hand down any minor penalties.
The testimony is part of the trial involving Vandenburg and former player Cory Batey. They, along with Brandon Banks and Jaborian McKenzie (whose trials are at a later date), are charged with rape involving an unconscious student. The woman testified for 90 minutes on Thursday about the alleged incident, and identified the woman in video from the incident as herself.
In her testimony, she said she's never been as drunk as she was that night.
McKenzie testified earlier in the week that Vandenburg was "amped" before the alleged incident. The four players accused were dismissed from the team following the allegations.

Boston College looking for OC after Ryan Day heads to NFL
Boston College is in need of an offensive coordinator.
The Philadelphia Eagles announced Thursday that Ryan Day would be the team's new quarterbacks coach. Day served as Boston College's offensive coordinator for the past two seasons.
#Eagles welcome new Quarterbacks Coach Ryan Day to the staff, replacing Bill Musgrave who became Oakland's offensive coordinator.
— Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) January 23, 2015
He came to Boston College in 2013 after Steve Addazio was hired as the team's head coach. Day was Temple's offensive coordinator in 2012 and coached at Boston College for a total of nine seasons. From 2007-2011 he was the team's wide receivers coach and was a graduate assistant in the 2003 and 2004 seasons.
The Eagles went to the Pinstripe Bowl this year as Day's run-heavy offense continued to flourish with Florida transfer Tyler Murphy. In 2013, running back Andre Williams (now with the New York Giants) was a Heisman finalist with 2,177 yards rushing.
In 2014, Boston College was 15th in the country in rushing yards. QB Murphy ran for 1,184 yards while RB Jon Hilliman had 860.
