If this were a big time media town, YSU would be getting roasted for this kind of behavior, they can't bury this one.

I don't see anyone covering anything up. I'm sure they are waiting for the NCAA to give them their final ruling on it. This isn't cut and dry. We don't know if it's any of the kids first offense. If it's weed for all the players. Heck one could be adderral, then you have to file papers from a doctor saying he is aloud to take it.
Bo will have his weekly press conference at 11:30 and we should all find out more than. I still don't think he will name names. I don't blame him if he doesn't say who the players are.You don't want Eastern Washington to know.
As for the players they who they are and what it may have cost this team and how they let their teammates down.
I still think with the players that will be suspended YSU has a good chance of winning.

Trust me, Bo did not want this coming out, and would have never publicly said anything if it wasn't for the newspaper.  Randy Gregory failed 7 tests at Nebraska and Bo never said a word.  Same goes for Alexander.

Alexander was suspended, hence why he transferred to YSU ?

Still just an opinion and as valid as yours. If not more given what just happened. The rule is simple, I am simply amazed that this happened ...if indeed it did.

How are you amazed?  You think this doesn't happen all the time?  Players smoke weed all over the country.  Hell a few years back half the military was smoking spice.  But it's no big deal if they go out and get drunk.

Not true at all.  For several reasons other than what I know....  #1 being that Bo isn't the one who administers the drug tests, and #2 Bo wasn't the one at NU in charge of suspensions or disciplining players who tested positive.  To my knowledge, Gregory didn't test positive at all as his issues were with substances that weren't tested for at the collegiate level.

As if that one has not been heard since the 70's.  Should we bring back all those that went to Canada to avoid weed prosecution  ::)  They violated the law and let the team down ...is there anymore to say that is not some attempt to politicize this topic? Furthermore they should be lucky that it happened in a random school-program test, or it would be a legal matter staying with them the rest of their lives.

I am amazed that they would let so many people down and they knew there was mandated testing and STILL did it. It is simply a question of character and brains. Has almost nothing to do with pot.

peteonastick:
Agree. They need to get out in front of this and put it behind them!!  The team needs to move on as does Bo. The Athletic Department can't let this fester. The longer it does the more speculation. The more speculation the less trust in the system by the fans and media.

Go Guins!
