I saw that today as well and was confused. He signed with us out of high school in the '11 class so I assumed that he had a scholarship.

We were his only D1 offer though so it could be possible that he is a preferred walk on I guess.

He is a fan favorite over on Hogville and many think he is going to be the best WR to ever play at Arkansas. They also keep deleting the threads that people start about his arrest.

Coach Bobby Petrino says through a spokesman that he is aware of the situation and that it will be handled appropriately.

Didn't know they were clocking people in there.....should probably not drive up there as much. Something about how spacious they made that place seem makes me want to see how fast I can get my car up to by the top floor.

67% of Fayetteville voters support making marijuana offenses the lowest law enforcement priority.

Yeah, Eureka passed it and their police actually follow it.

Fayetteville passed it in 2008 and our cops continue to be dicks.

People smoke walking down the street in Eureka Springs. Weed is legal there, for all practical purposes. I was over there the other night at a little pub and the windows were open, and there was a dude passing out fattys on the porch, everybody just puffing away. :csb:

Testing for anything other than PED's by the NCAA is fricking stupid IMO...

Seems to me that any street drugs players are using are gonna impede their performance, not enhance it...

If a school wants to let their players slide on weed, scrip's etc... it's ok by me. It'll just bite the team & HC in the arse in the long run with lax discipline & reduced performance...

Well Fayetteville is by far the most liberal city in Arkansas (other than Eureka Springs), and that is a statewide issue.

Is it going to be on the ballot? I see people with petitions on Dickson all the time lately.

As long as we have counties that can't sell beer I think it is safe to say that we are not going to legalize weed.

Fayetteville is weird. It has a large progressive population, but the Washington Co. Prosecutor's office is probably the most aggressive in the state. They go for lots of max sentences, make real tough pleas. I think if there were a more concerted effort by marijuana advocates to get a different prosecutor in office, it would go much further than any petition ever would. But that's the thing, most prosecutors run on a platform of being 'tough on crime,' and many people agree with that on many offenses, they probably don't realize that successful convictions on any possible offense will set the tone for what type of arrests are made a street level. Just my opinion, anyway.

Oh, and Numberwang, STAY INDOORS.
