Way to have class about an obviously troubled kid.

And for the record, I am not marketing myself as being somehow better than Coker. I will be honest (I hope this doesn’t get me banned) I have smoked weed. Big deal people, there are much more serious and harmful drugs to worry about.

Med. condition??

Obviously you have smoked weed - and one to many times.

Hes from california...anything mind altering is considered a condiment.

 

[tidwell]

And it has been confirmed that the suspension is due to a violation of the newly reinstated drug policy. Marijuana was the culprit.

Aiie.

Thought the whole "He's a good person and was very remorseful" sounded odd earlier. Makes sense now, though.

It's the weed again.

I just don't get it with these guys. All the hard work, all the hours, all the practice and all the personal sacrifice and to flush it down the toliet. :no: I just don't get!:dunno:

Obviously you have smoked way to much. Its harmful to your body. Your body is the temple of God. Its a very serious problem.

Just think, now Teddyhead can look forward to watching his players get a piggy back ride to the endzone from Hardesty again.

Its an addiction.

We see it happen to people way too often :no:

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

You are going to be gone long before that if you don't stop provoking and turning every thread into a discussion on Tedford.

:lol:

 

[utvolpj]

not to derail the thread but that's just not true.

 

[vol4eva]

I feel bad for Lamarcus. If he truly is trying to overcome this addiction I will support him. He will be in my prayers.

And hows that?

“LaMarcus has responded each time in a good way and I’m hopeful he will do that this time. He was very hurt today, very remorseful, very regretful, with a lot of tears. But now he has to take care of himself from a personal standpoint and every other way. This is not just football. It’s about life and being a person that is a productive father and citizen.”

Now thats a great attitude!!!:rock:

It may have been very minor and Fulmer wants to nip it in the bud.

Choice words!

 

[WA_Vol]

Coker only smokes it for medical reasons, why can't Fulmer understand that?

"Fulmer here's how you play it.......first you indefinitely suspend him from the team, and reinstate him before the Cal game. After the Cal game review the incident and give him a 1 game suspsension vs Southern Miss. Then reinstate him for Florida."---Urban Meyer

Did I miss something?

 

[hatvol96]

Did I miss something?

Yes, some heavy handed sarcasm.

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

And hows that?

Cannabis isn't physically addictive, that's how. One can easily stop with the the right course of action, will power, and-or support.

Can I have a link where it says he smokes for medical reasons?
