Bringing in a kicker to replace Griffin Oakes, who will be a senior in 2017, was a priority for Indiana head coach Tom Allen. Allen has put a premium on special teams since taking over in December of 2016 and has said he won't hesitate to give a kicker or punter a scholarship. That hole was filled very well when U.S. Army All-American kicker Charles Campbell committed to the Hoosiers just hours after receiving a scholarship offer.

Redshirt junior wide receiver was booked into a Hamilton County (Ind.) jail Saturday night for failing to provided indentification. A second charge or resisting arrest was filed Sunday according to multiple reports.

According to social media, he was attending a concert Saturday night. The Indiana Athletic Department released a statement Sunday afternoon stating:

"Indiana University Athletics and the IU football program are aware of the arrest of redshirt junior Simmie Cobbs Jr. We will continue to gather facts, monitor the legal process and take action as the evolving situation warrants."

Cobbs missed all but one play in 2016 due to a one-game suspension and a leg injury that knocked him out after his only play on offense against Ball State in the second week. Cobbs was expected to be a major contributor in 2017 and his presence would give IU one of the best receiving corps in the Big Ten.

The Tennessee native and former halfback/quarterback/punter had a remarkable career at IU and in the pros and his accomplishments definitely place him on any list of “all-time greats” for Indiana University.
