    Exactly. In Texas, the speed limit is 75. Not in Louisiana. I can’t drive over the speed limit and get pulled over and tell the officer, “but it’s legal in Texas.”

    In the words of Jim Carey, “STOP BREAKING THR LAW ASS HOLE!”

    If folks are paying you (scholarship, salary, whatever), you play by their rules. If you can't, quit. Do something else.

    You are right, it is against the law and against the rules. J'mar is an adult, an adult in his twenties, he knows better and should have been aware of the responsibility he had. This is NOT on HCSH, he cannot babysit them all and I really do not think it was wise to release the news any earlier than he did just because a few people thought they should know. I an not sure I would have announced it until we were boarding the plane, we do not get to know everything just so we can have some gossip material and that is what several are mad about. HCSH made a strategic news release on the whole situation and and the people that NEEDED to know already knew and John Q Public, which many of us are, got the news last, or at least when everyone else did.

    Gateway drug? I once believed that too and was adamantly against any form of legalization, the gateway theory has mostly been debunked for the major majority of users and I do not have near the problem with it I once had. That is a discussion for another thread on another part of the forum on another day though.

    This is our chance to show rock-stars and prima-donnas just how replaceable they are.

    Should it be or is it legal is beside the point, we all have different opinions

    Yeah Im aware it is still illegal. And that is on Smith and Hardy, and possibly whoever else was involved that didn’t get caught.

    This. Yall know I've often advocated for legalization. But for the time being -- them's the rules.

    A football season is only 3-4 months per year wherein you have to stay clean. All you have to do is NOT toke until after your bowl game. Then go burn a 10 foot blunt for all I care.

    JMar has the rest of his life to blaze away -- couldnt you have held off for a just few more weeks?

    Yeah, I don't get it. It's not habit forming like a gateway drug.

    This is not Holtz' fault.

    Apparently our 5th year guy needed some baby sitting.

    Y'all remember how Bicknell had no curfew on road trips? Remember how that worked at at USC and at Boise before the bowl game?

    Gotta baby sit some of the prima donnas.

    man - you guys are crazy to not hold the head coach or the AD accountable for this incident.
    the school paid those guys (HC and AD) a lot of money to run their program and invested a lot of money into the program ( facilities, player's scholarships, room and board, etc.). When the employee/players whom the HC/AD hired/recruited messed up the school investment you are telling me that is not part of the HC/AD's fault.

    You were clear and I was agreeing with you. I didn't make that clear. Some folks expect too much of our HC and look for any reason to "impeach" him. We've had enough of that from a few fronts. It is not helpful.

    They can’t control every aspect of these guys’ life.
