Damnation - time to check the weather in hell.
For tomorrow, continued freezing conditions with the high reaching a relatively warm -100 degrees Fahrenheit.
Or so it would seem!

When I say "Fulmer drops the hammer," I say that tongue in cheek. Clearly, by reading both articles, Fulmer's new zero-tolerance policy only extends to redshirt underclassmen ... notice the projected senior starter got the indefinite suspension?Damnation - time to check the weather in hell.
Tennessee plays Cal in week 1. I promise you Mitchell will be back on the field in time for Marshawn Lynch and Justin Forsett. Fulmer's between a rock and a hard place. If he doesn't implement a zero-tolerance policy and clean up the off-field problems, they'll fire him. If he does implement a zero-tolerance policy and has to boot what talent he has, he'll go 5-7 and they'll fire him.

That's OK Dryden - the hell freezing over was also tongue in cheek. Heaven knows if Fulmer really held the line tight on discipline he would have had less than a 2/3rd of his starters last year.
Anyway here is another odd situation that has been making the news down here. An NKU athlete from the basketball team.

Texas RB Charged With Marijuana Possession
By JIM VERTUNO, AP Sports Writer
Sun May 14, 9:43 PM ET
Texas running back Ramonce Taylor, who scored a touchdown in the Longhorns' Rose Bowl win over Southern California, was arrested Sunday by sheriff's deputies who said they found about 5 pounds of marijuana in a backpack in his car.
Deputies also found a live 40-caliber round of ammunition in the console of the vehicle, Sheriff Dan Smith said.
Bell County prosecutors charged the 20-year-old Taylor with state jail felony drug possession of marijuana, pending lab results to determine the total weight of the drug, the sheriff's office said.
If it weighs more than five pounds, the charge will be upgraded to a second-degree felony punishable by two to 20 years in jail and $10,000 in fines. A state jail felony carries up to two years in jail and a $10,000 fine.
Taylor was in the Bell County Jail and will be arraigned Monday. It was not immediately clear if he had a lawyer.
Taylor had been excused from spring practice in March to focus on academics and had not participated in any team functions since, Longhorns coach Mack Brown said.
"We are aware of this recent situation and will follow it as the legal system runs its course. At this time, we will not consider reinstating him to the team," Brown said.
According to the arrest report, deputies responded to a report of a large fight involving as many as 100 people at a pecan farm in Little River, a community about 40 miles from Austin. Deputies also said they received a call from someone who had been at the fight and complained that a window on his vehicle had been broken. That caller turned out to be Taylor.
While interviewing Taylor at a convenience store, deputies were told by other officers at the fight scene that Taylor had been involved and had threatened to return with a gun. Taylor was placed in handcuffs.
Taylor told deputies he didn't have a gun and gave them permission to search his vehicle. Deputies reported finding the bullet and the backpack with the marijuana.
One of Texas' most versatile players, Taylor scored 15 touchdowns last season, including a 30-yard scoring run in the Rose Bowl, which Texas won 41-38. The win gave Texas its first outright national championship since 1969.

I hate seeing kids waste talent. Why do you need to distribute grass when you have a full ride at a major D-1 school. It also seems like half the kids that become good athletes come from horrible backrounds hence curtis martin, jerome bettis, warrick dunn, and just about every other running back in the nfl.

Wow! That really must be a surprise to Texas fans. Agreed. A sad thing, probably no chance he will be playing this year. I continue to be dumbfounded at the way people treat the advantage of playing football in a major program. I would have given just about anything to have had that chance and to see someone with such ability throw it away is always a shock.

5lbs! Ramonce wasn't screwing around
I wonder if he'll be available for our game in Sept.?
If I remember they were pretty well stocked at RB, had a true freshaman last year that was on the cusp of greatness

Charles is a good back tha can give us fits if we aren't ready. But losing Taylor hurts. If he isn't available, we aren't playing a healthy team. We'll be playing a team with a limp.
