Yikes.

Kent State senior safety Nate Holley has been suspended indefinitely from the football team after he was charged with first-degree felony kidnapping. According to the Record Courier, the alleged incident involved a female and took place this past Thursday.

Holley's preliminary hearing is set for Thursday, only a week after the alleged incident took place and he is supposed to be arraigned today (Monday).
