NCAA to quiz only one Georgia player about party

The NCAA intends to interview only one University of Georgia player as part of its investigation into improper benefits given to athletes by agents.

The player's name is redacted on a copy of the e-mail obtained Monday by the Athens Banner-Herald under an open records request. Georgia says the student's name was redacted in accordance with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act.

In the e-mail, Marcus Wilson , the NCAA's assistant director in charge of agents activities, outlined plans for the interview. The NCAA is investigating possible rules violations at a party in Miami in May. Wilson wants to find whether the player was involved in, or knew about, NCAA rules violations.

Receiver A.J. Green told the Banner-Herald last week that the compliance office asked him about the party. Green told them he wasn't there and that he's never been to Miami.

GEORGIA TECH: Defensive end Robert Hall has been suspended for a game.

Coach Paul Johnson suspended Hall indefinitely in June after Hall's argument over money with his girlfriend led to a battery charge. Johnson announced the one-game suspension Monday. Hall will miss the team's opening game against South Carolina State.

According to a Georgia Tech police report, Hall slammed former Yellow Jackets basketball player Brigitte Ardossi into a door and wall of their campus residence, causing her head to bleed.

The lawsuit accuses Southern Cal and Kiffin of violating Pola's contract that required him to have written permission to discuss a job with anyone other than the Titans.

Kiffin acknowledged in a statement that the timing wasn't perfect.
