Looks like the fall is coming. After Florida State got exposed for its part in hindering the investigation of Jameis Winston's sexual assault case, ESPN reported that the school told Winston he's due for a disciplinary hearing over the case. Winston is facing four charges of violating FSU's student.

The Heisman winner has five school days to contact the school's Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities to schedule an information hearing. The student conduct hearing, which determines if Winston is guilty, would be held soon after.

Again, FSU's sudden action is odd considering it's on the same day Fox Sports published its investigative report. One may even surmise Winston is being pushed as a scapegoat not in the sense that he's blameless, but in how the school could be using this hearing to draw attention away from a cover up.

Anyway, we have an interesting week in college football news ahead of us.
