quote:

a resident assistant called officers after smelling marijuana coming from a room in Vandiver Hall early Monday morning.

The responding officer said that he "could immediately smell the odor of burning marijuana" coming from the room.

After knocking on the door several times, the officer said that Holyfield opened the door.

"I observed his eyes to be bloodshot and when the door opened the smell of marijuana became even stronger," the officer wrote.

Holyfield allegedly told the officer that he hadn't been smoking marijuana and "didn't know what I was talking about," according to the incident report.

The officer asked if he could enter the room to check for contraband, but Holyfield said he didn't want him to enter. The officer asked Holyfield and two roommates to step out of the room while he obtained a search warrant.

After the officer obtained a search warrant, he said he found a glass pipe inside of an iPhone box in Holyfield's room that contained suspected marijuana residue. The officer said he also found a "small loose burned bud of suspected marijuana" on a desktop.

Another officer checked outside below an open window and said he found seven buds of suspected unburned marijuana on the ground.

Holyfield told the officer that he had no idea how the marijuana got in his room, and that he knew nothing about the marijuana found outside his window.

It looks like Louisiana just had 12 players arrest for robbery for a grand total of 52 points. It's gonna be tough to catch up to that. Especially with our nickle and dime arrests.

Mark Richt has lost control of Kirby?

In all seriousness, another day, another non-criminal in America arrested for weed. He's just fortunate he's got a famous and wealthy father, a team and fanbase that will support him and zero chance of this hurting him the way it would if he were some random poor person with no connections, fame, or money. Our police and our judicial system are far too punitive when it comes to drug and alcohol arrests (I'm not talking about when someone is shite faced and driving 90 miles per hour down the wrong way - that's a whole other crime when you endanger others).

When the costs are added up, even the people who get probation have been put through the ringer financially and emotionally, have a permanent mark that hurts their employment, the embarrassment/humiliation of being arrested and spending the night and jail and have generally paid a ridiculous cost for an offense that no one should be paying for 'crime' most of us know is a damn joke.

ETA: Misdemanor possession of less than 1 oz of weed




basically less than a six pack of beer.

Meanwhile kids are smoking K2/synthetics to pass tests and they are so crazed they want to chew someones face off or jump out of the 4th story of a hotel room.

I'll set the O/U on D1 football players who smoke daily @ 50% and give me the over for 5 dimes Alex.

How many UGA players have been arrested this off-season?

asking for a friend.


I'm guessing your friend's name is Gus and you're trying to help him recruit players who are potentially getting kicked out of other schools?

Nope. Georgia's football arrests since 2014 is greater than than Auburn's whole athletic department since 2013.
Edit- More Georgia football players have been arrested under Kirby than Auburn football players under Gus as well. That's quite revealing as Kirby hasn't even been at his program half as long as Gus.




I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suppose that, if Auburn softball players are smoking weed, you can bet that their dealers are football players. But at Auburn, football players aren't arrested for weed. Gus is alerted and takes care of the matter quietly.

All of the football arrests except for one are solely possession of weed.

And UGA's?

Everyone knows Athens cops are stricter than any other schools. Also, you've never heard of a UGA player being arrested for armed robbery. Auburn?

If the RA was smart he would have knocked on the door and told them that they had 10 minutes to clean the room up and then he was calling the cops.
Would have made a friend for life.

It's ridiculous that you can't resist when your future depends on it. I know people smoke but when your scholarship or later in life employer says you can't, then don't. People throw away everything because they're dumb and then blame the law. Even if the law is dumb, you knew what it was and that it could get you screwed.
