I actually like pull for a team that puts honesty and integrity first


So do I and I'm proud of my college for doing so BUT most on this thread that are advocating pushinment and harsh penelties are the EXACT same folks that are calling for CMR'r or Bobo's head on a platter after every loss.I really don't know if you're one those to be honest with you.

Schools would get around those policies and cheat


It wouldn't be left up to the schools.Easy solution,the drug testing policy would be adminstered by the conference...it very easy to test for recreational drugs....PED testing is a whole different animal.

A scholarship, even a full ride is not the equivalent for paying a student. When you play football at a big time program, then you are the only department making a profit for the university(most cases), in the sum of millions of dollars. The coach makes millions of dollars a year, the assistant coaches makes hundreds of thousands a year, but the actually person playing the game and bringing in the revenue, the football player, they get dont get paid! Yet they get to attend this university for free and get a "full ride" (whatever that means), however many other students can get this same opportunity through academic scholarships, yet they do not bring in millions of dollars. How is this fair to the student who is bringing is most of the revenue to the university? These football players have even less free time than other students b/c of their dedication to the football program. Look at A Murray, that DGD lived in teh film room. How can a student take full classes and then allocate the correct amount of study time for them, then throw in football practice, then the extra time to put in to it to make the team better, and your self. How can this person have a real paying job outside of this to have extra cash? They can't! But the guy who is on an academic scholarship is not putting in this many hours, so they are able to work and getting paid. Then you throw in our rules are way stricter than any other school in the SEC, so not only are you working harder than almost all the studnents, you can't even relieve some stress by partying (drinking and smoking, and girls) without possibly fricking up your future.

We hold these players to way way higher standards than we would do ourselves. For all we know JHC coulda only smoked pot 2 times and most of yall are calling for him to get kicked off. Any other SEC this would not be a problem. If we kick him off, it will end up like Mett or Marshall, everyone will be thinking what if.

Also, yeah I understand this is our drug policy, but damn does that mean we shouldnt question it, especially when the other teams winning national championships dont give a frick? God damn!

**edit: Also retail price of going to UGA can be expensive, but do you think all the football players would be paying full price if they got admitted to uga and werent playing football? No, they would be getting some type of assistance or financial aid, so their cost of attendance would be significantly lower than the retail uga sticker tag, so considering that, their "full ride" isn't as expensive or extravagant as some of you assclowns make it sound.

There is ALWAYS a way to get around a rule or a test.
