But I am also for equality...it isn't the pot/f#&%ing/drinking/partying that made one team bad and one good...it was the players. So if this cat that just got busted is a stud...I say...GO BIG RED!

Last time I checked weed isn’t allowed in the NCAA or NFL. You can debate all you want, but his “possession” means he’s likely violating NCAA rules. Me before team for both him and Washington. I’d sit em both the first 4 games. Cant wait for the eyerolls He didn’t fail an NCAA drug test, so he’s not in violation of an NCAA rule as far as I’m aware. Speaking of which, the NCAA reduced the penalty for a positive marijuana test recently and they will likely reduce it again in the future. So, since he didn’t violate an NCAA rule and has never been in trouble before, the legal issue is going to come up followed by any team issue there might be. It’s really unlikely there will be a game suspension. 2 Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I think Mo Barry will address this with most of the team shortly. He wants a championship. Captain, Unity Council, whatever. Mo will get his point across. He might already be addressing this. Can't imagine he and others will put up with any off season BS that is going to lessen the chances of winning. 2 Quote Link to comment

It's a performance enhancing drug, as it decreases pain levels. Yeah, but the players are allowed to take prescription pain medications? Quote Link to comment

Yes, the combination of politics and medicine/pharma push for meds make most natural treaments less accessible while drugs/treatments with bad side effects are given. MJ is supposedly good for lowering pain and decreasing healing time. But anyways these kids have to get better at smoking incognito. If they're going to do it they need to be more discreet.

Yes, he’s probably doing something which is against the NCAA rules, but again it’s not a violation of the rules until he tests positive, so the NCAA won’t issue any punishment until that happens. Now, whether Wandale or Mo has committed a violation of team rules is a different story. But, again their behavior wasn’t an issue until they were caught. Quote Link to comment

I’m not saying what Wandale did wasn’t against the laws in Nebraska (no matter how silly I think those laws are) and he doesn’t deserve any punishment. However, you keep referencing the NCAA when they don’t have any jurisdiction in the matter until Wandale or Mo fails an NCAA drug test. Quote Link to comment
