Six?Minnesota football players will miss Saturdays home game against Rutgers because of restraining orders served against them this week, according to the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.Cornerbacks KiAnte Hardin,?Ray Buford?and Kiondre Thomas, safety Dior Johnson, running back Carlton Djam and defensive lineman Tamarion Johnson are out after a woman involved in Golden Gophers game-day operations filed the orders stemming from a September sexual assault allegation. TCF Bank Stadium was included in restricted addresses for the players.It would not be appropriate for the University to comment on this matter to the extent it relates to University students, university spokesman Evan Lapinska said in a statement. The University reaffirms, however, that it will honor and comply with court orders.Hardin, Buford, Dior Johnson and Tamarion Johnson were suspended for three games each earlier this season while the Minneapolis Police Department investigated the allegations. The Hennepin County Attorneys Office decided not to pursue charges in early October, saying there was insufficient evidence to prove an assault occurred.Djam and Thomas had not been suspended or named in the investigation.The players attorney, Lee Hutton, called the restraining orders a calculated move, according to the Twin Cities Pioneer Press.A hearing on the orders is set for Tuesday.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Almost four months after the Olympics ended, Rio de Janeiro organizers are unable to pay some of their bills, including $3.7 million owed to the International Paralympic Committee.IPC spokesman Craig Spence told The Associated Press on Tuesday that the money is owed for travel grants, which is part of the contractual agreement to host the Olympics and Paralympics.Never have we faced an issue like this with an organizing committee being so late paying travel grants, Spence told AP.The default is the latest for embattled Rio organizers, who have also been late paying hundreds of creditors and contract employees.Spence said the unpaid travel expenses were damaging national Paralympic committees, particularly those with tiny budgets.Some of our smaller national Paralympic committees, who took out loans to pay for their travel for the Games, are now in serious danger of defaulting on their repayments, Spence said.Cash-flow problems, budget cuts and cost overruns dogged organizers in the run-up to South Americas first Olympics.Despite this, International Olympic Committee officials last week described the Rio games as the most perfect, imperfect games, discounting empty seats, organizational setbacks, and pea-green water in a diving and swimming venue.As the Olympics opened on Aug. 5, organizers needed millions in a bailout from the city and federal governments to fund the subsequent Paralympics. This broke a promise to use only private money to fund the $2.8 billion operating budget.We told everybody before the Paralympics that we were short for the Paralympic Games because of lack oof sponsorship and ticket sales, Rio spokesman Mario Andrada said.ddddddddddddSpence said Rio CEO Sidney Levy shocked officials just four weeks before the Paralympic opened, saying there was no money to do the Paralympics.The cash-flow problems continue, even as the committee is downsized and will cease to exist later next year -- save for lawyers to handle lawsuits.Spence said Rio organizers have told him that money that should have gone to pay the travel grants was seized by other creditors -- through a lawsuit and court injunction -- demanding payment.Spence said he was told these creditors included security and cleaning companiesThe issues have put the spotlight on Rios city hall and out-going mayor Eduardo Paes.In the bailout pledge, the city committed 150 million reals ($45 million) with the federal government promising another 100 million reals ($30 million).Andrada said the city had paid only 30 million reals ($9 million) so far, though organizers have billed the city for at least twice that much.Paes has been in the unwanted spotlight recently.A state court froze his assets last week as a public prosecutor investigates whether he failed to assess an environmental fee to the company that built the Olympic golf course.This adds to suspicion about overbilling and favoritism in infrastructure built for the Olympics and the 2014 World Cup.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWade .
