concrete punishments for multiple failed drug tests



A first offense of the marijuana policy means a one-game suspension for football players, and a second violation means a four-game suspension.

failed 17 drug tests at LSU and never missed a game? Shite doesn't happen like that in Athens.



Yeah, LSU, OM, and a few others have no penalty whatsoever for 3 failed tests. Each case is handled accordingly. Which just means they don't care. The SEC should really set a standard for that.

And I misspoke in my last comment I think. It's the first offense that only like 2 of us have concrete punishment for. But there are a handful of schools that don't even have them for the third, which is just absurd.

It's us. I think we suspend for a game after the first and it escalates from there. I'm not sure about other schools, nor do I care.

To me I could care less who lets anybody on a team. What matters is how it is handled when/if a problem pops up. I can think of a lot of other programs I would point fingers at before pointing them at State. (I try not to point fingers at anybody else, though, because when you do point fingers something always bad happens to your own team. ) I hate the taste of crow!

Maybe we need to find two felons, get more on Georgia's level.




Where did you get that they are felons? I'm confused. they haven't been convicted yet.

And if your felons you find are felons for shooting BB Guns at solo cups, then you should be ok.

Yep- have to admit I'm a bit surprised by this. My take was MSU represented the sane side of tRant. The video speaks for itself. BB guns and solo cups just don't tweak my moral outrage like a 5* DE beating a middle aged woman.

Actually, that just isn't a felony offense. Even before looking at the full video and considering the situation.

this is correct. There are far too many people that don't understand what aggravated assault is. He did not use a deadly weapon nor did he cause serious bodily injury. It being a woman does not escalate a charge to being a felony. Hitting someone on the ground does not make it a felony. If he had broken bones or caused a debilitating injury, it would have. None of that happened

Giving someone shite about their program and then your school doing some really shady shite is hypocritical.


Then there isn't a damn single one of us on here who isn't a hypocrite. All of our schools have done some "shady shite" and all of them have had some questionable players on the team.

They are the worst fanbase in college football...no one generally cares though, because they are terrible
at least they have won 10 regular season games at some point in the history of the program. In fact they did it in 2014

In Scientology, beating a woman is a rite of passage.

While this is true- from a societal perspective big difference jumping in because you "have your boyz back" vs. beating a woman. The video is amazing on so many levels. 20 people standing around and not one tries to break it up. The lower classes in the US really are fricked up. That has nothing to do with Simmons, just an observation.

yep, I said the same when the video first came out that the most astounding thing is the 30 people watching a man beat the crap out of a woman on the ground and no one even thinks about intervening
