No. 1 Florida State moves past Winston accusation (Yahoo Sports)

ADD UPDATES ABOUT NO CHARGES FILED - FILE - In this Sept. 21, 2013, file photo, Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston watches from the sidelines during the second half of an NCAA college football game against Bethune-Cookman in Tallahassee, Fla. Search warrants, released Thursday, Dec. 5, 2013, in the sexual assault investigation of Winston indicate the woman told police she was raped at an apartment after a night of drinking at a bar.

A prosecutor's decision to not bring charges against Florida State quarterback and Heisman Trophy favorite Jameis Winston has removed a cloud from over the team, which is focused and prepared to face Duke in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game, Coach Jimbo Fisher said. Winston is ACC player of the year and the leader in the Heisman race. State Attorney Willie Meggs told a news conference Thursday there was not enough evidence to win a conviction against Winston, mostly because there were too many gaps in his accuser's story. Winston, 19, practiced as usual Thursday and traveled with the team to Charlotte in the evening.
