  An ex-Jackson State University football player accused the Tigers' athletic program of misconduct after his current university ruled him ineligible to play. Emmanuel Olenga, a student at Tennessee State University, made the allegations Friday on Twitter in posts that have since been deleted. The Tennessean reported that TSU had asked the NCAA to investigate a possible violation of transfer guidelines. It's unclear what the possible transfer violation could be - or mean for TSU and JSU. Jackson State and Olenga declined to comment Monday. - Clarion Ledger
