Razorback backup linebacker remains at hospital

By wire services
Published September 3, 2004

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - One of the veterans for Arkansas, linebacker Michael Robinson, was still hospitalized Thursday with an undetermined illness.

The school said tests Wednesday were inconclusive.

Robinson became ill before practice Wednesday, breaking out in a cold sweat and becoming delirious, coach Houston Nutt said.

He was taken to a nearby hospital by ambulance.

The school said Robinson's condition had stabilized and he is expected back at practice within a few days.

Robinson, a junior, played in 12 games last season, mostly on special teams.

He is listed as a second-team linebacker on the most recent depth chart.

Scalpers must beware at N.C. State games

RALEIGH, N.C. - Season tickets for North Carolina State games are priceless this season. The question is whether that will cause problems for prosecutors pursuing charges against scalpers.

The cost was mistakenly left off tickets for each game in season packages, which could cause uncertainty about the legal price to resell them. It is a misdemeanor in North Carolina to sell a ticket for more than $3 above face value.

John Parris, an assistant district attorney for Wake County, said he doesn't believe the error will cause problems.

"You'd still be able to prove the value of (the ticket) by how much the person paid for it originally," he said, but added, "Judges may view it differently."

The Wolfpack's home games in Carter-Finley Stadium, which seats 53,800, are sold out. Fans bought 37,100 season tickets at $215 each, associate athletic director Charlie Cobb said.

Prices for single-game tickets range from $30 for Saturday's home opener against Richmond to $47 for the Sept. 18 game against Ohio State.

NORTHWESTERN: Receiver Brandon Horn sat out Thursday's season opener against TCU for violating an undisclosed team rule. The one-game suspension was announced 30 minutes before kickoff. Horn, a junior, is a backup to starter Jonathan Fields. He caught 10 passes for 285 yards and two touchdowns last season.

WAKE FOREST: Running back Micah Andrews and receiver Travo Woods were suspended for two games for undisclosed violations of team policy. Both are redshirt freshmen.
