PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A Temple University tailback was in critical but stable condition after being stabbed outside a dormitory Monday night. Elmarko Jackson, 21, from Sharon, Pa., was stabbed at about 6 p.m. on the North Philadelphia campus.

The senior had been seen arguing with another man. "Police are questioning a possible suspect who was seen with him outside the residence hall this afternoon," university spokesman George Ingram said. Jackson, who has played on the football team for three years, was declared academically ineligible to play in the season finale against Miami.
