Maybe I am wrong but once you are charged with a felony in Florida, you lose your scholarship. One does not need to wait until convicted. As much as we all want to defend him, he is done at USF. Time to move on.

Colorado and Washington State both legalize cannabis and they advance to the super bowl, Coincidence? I Think Pot.

How hard is it to follow the law while getting a free education and an opportunity to make millions in the NFL?  Drink alcohol and don't drive if you can't have fun without the aid of some substance.

He is on football schollie.  He commits a felony, he loses the scholly.  He knows this, thus there are no excuses. I don't think anyone has said he is a horrible kid, useless to society.  Just sayin

Either way, it's clearly not his first smoke, which tells me it was only a matter of time. It's a felony, he is gone, off the team. Better to know today now and use his schools for a new recruit.

 

He is only charged with a felony (yes, that means you can't participate in team activities till the case and/or penalty are resolved). However, if he has a previous clean record, if this is his first offense, any good lawyer will get this charged dropped to a misdemeanor, which would make him eligible to participate in program activities/workouts/practices/games.

 

Now Tag might have his own penalties to add...but odds are, if chargers are lowered or even dropped all together, he will not be kicked out of the program for good.

oh my GOD

 

Dear Potential Students of USF (and any college)

 

The police have UNDERCOVER officers on campus, not every police officer on campus sits in a squad car. The patrol the campus, they patrol the dorm halls, they patrol all areas of the campus.

 

They are plain clothed, they're job is to find things like this, and report them.... so the REAL police officers can show up and make the arrests. The easiest way to get arrested, is to smoke something that you can easily smell from a block away. Especially in an area that is 100% searchable at ANY time without a warrant (student housing)

 

When you sign papers to move into on-campus housing, you give the school and any authorized person, access to search your dorm room at ANY time, for ANY reason. 

 

If you want to smoke pot, do it off campus!!!!

 

Just looking out

I'd prefer a program that gives players that screw up a chance, depending on the seriousness of the offense, rather than kicking them to the curb.

Not sure how this could possibly be right ...

If the NCAA can suspend an athlete's Constitutional rights it might be... :eyeroll:

Never seen or heard about undercover cops before... And I have quite a few RA friends and several friends with UP run ins.. Don't think their are actual undercover officers on campus, just RAs

I believe ghost is right. That is why it was so big that Winston was never charged.

FSU's policy is to suspend a player charged with a felony, and there is room to make an exception in special circumstances.  Not even FSU will revoke a player scholly based on a felony charge.  So this cannot be a state of Florida rule.
