"Trouble" on Rocky Top

[GoshenGipper]

Two Tennessee football players were cited on Friday night for simple possession of marijuana as they hosted a recruit on an official visit.

Gerald Jones was driver of a car which was stopped for a burnt out light. According to the report, officers smelled marijuana as the approached the Dodge Magnum

Officers received consent to search the car and found marijuana cigars inside the car including one which was partially smoked.

The passengers in the car were redshirt freshman receiver Ahmad Paige, redshirt offensive lineman William Brimfield and Muskogee, Oklahoma wide receiver Jameel Owens. Owens was in town for his official visit.

Jones and Paige were both cited for simple possession (a misdemeanor) and Jones was cited for not wearing a seat belt as well as the burnt out light.

Tennessee head coach Phillip Fulmer is going to issue a statement later today.

Is offering a recruit a marijuana cigar a recruiting violation??? LOL

 

[GoshenGipper]

I don't know, you would think so but then again I think two Rivals 100 Freshman driving around a Dodge Magnum is a little fishy too, but hey, what do I know?

Not if he doesn't inhale.

If he was sitting in the no smoking section of the Magnum, I'm sure he'd be fine.

Those things are big- getting him ready for a stretch hummer when they go pro. Can't start too early with these things.

I wonder if Jameel Owens will end up at UT? Fulmer has to be proud after this one.

 

[IrishinTN]

The magnum is just as troubling as the dope. And I meant the pot, not the driver. And ol Phil's response is just as harsh as ever..."This is an example of kids making poor choices..." blah, blah, blah. Wow, that'll show'em. way to show a stiff resolve, Phil!

Speaking of marijuana...

"The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office is investigating a Pennsylvania State University student on reports that he was helping to finance his college education by selling large amounts of marijuana and making $30,000 to $45,000 per deal.

The office obtained a search warrant in early December ordering the student, whose name The Daily Collegian is withholding pending charges, to turn over bank records and other financial statements in his PNC Bank account. Police said they think the student was buying up to 70 pounds of marijuana at a time for resale in the region.

The attorney general’s office does not comment on ongoing investigations.

The investigation was initiated when law enforcement in Centre County became aware of a “large-scale” marijuana distribution organization operating in the State College area. A confidential informant identified the student, a supply-chain management major, as a distributor."
