not football, but remember Ole Miss' Marshall Henderson, the BBall player who agitated, well, everyone. He had been suspended, and I guess we found out what he did. Failed a drug test (or 3). The Drug found?

Ketamine.

That's Horse Tranquilizer.

Not really. It's a sedative that can be used on humans. Can also be used to treat depression and bipolar disorder

special k is a relatively harmless drug iirc.

Same family as PCP apparently? Doesn't sound too harmless.

Ketamine is a drug used in human and veterinary medicine, primarily for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia, usually in combination with a sedative. Other uses include sedation in intensive care, analgesia (particularly in emergency medicine), and treatment of bronchospasm. Ketamine has a wide range of effects in humans, including analgesia, anesthesia, hallucinations, elevated blood pressure, and bronchodilation.[2] Like other drugs of its class, such as tiletamine and phencyclidine (PCP), ketamine induces a state referred to as "dissociative anesthesia"[3] and is used as a recreational drug.

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

My buddy was roommates with Carlos when he was a freshman. Guys was a giant douchebag and him and Verlon Reed (WR, not sure if he is on the team anymore) used to just smoke pot 24/7.

Hmm, an Ohio State RB in trouble with the law? I feel like I've seen this before.

And its coming down now that Carlos has been suspended indefinitely.

Way to go Carlos. Good thing we have a decent lineup of RB, but Carlos was still very good.

edit: Apparently he punch a police officers daughter in the face.

Could you possibly be referring to Ohio State running back Maurice Clarrett who wore the #13 for the Ohio State Buckeyes?

I seem to remember a player who fits exactly that description: a running back for the Ohio State University Buckeyes who wore #13 and the name "Clarett" on the back of his jersey, which indicated that the player in that uniform was a man named Maurice Clarett.

And that, kids, is why you don't go punching women. You never know if her daddy is a police officer.

That and you just shouldn't punch women.

New Big 12 logo:


Could have been better, could have been worse. Considering this conference's recent history, surprised it isn't worse.

I hope that the branding directions require the logo to always be presented at an angle.

I'm not sure if the curves are necessary, but it's not an overly cheesy or displeasing design element.

And it would work without a gradient, even though they included one in this rendering.

Gundy says Chelf and Walsh will be getting equal reps at QB in practice.

The Walsh dream stays alive! He's far more dynamic IMO (although I actually think both will be getting lots of reps this season).

I hated it at first but it's a lot better than the Big 10 logo or the AAC or whatever it is.

Honestly, the B1G logo is surprisingly great.

It got a pretty lukewarm reception (probably because they paired it with this monstrosity which they thankfully abandoned), but I really think it has proved its worth over the past couple of years.

The fact that many of us now use "B1G" is actually a good sign of how effective it has been.

The AAC logo is just a complete fucking travesty in every conceivable way. I refuse to believe that an actual professional design firm created that turd.

Whelp,

Carlos Hyde kicked off the team. Although he did the same with Storm Klein last year and let him back on.

And our starting Corner Bradley roby was arrested in Indiana this weekend for refusing to leave a bar.

Oh, there's now an Aaron Murray Rule. Change of Possession results in the QB being marked "Defenseless"

@CecilHurt:There is now an Aaron Murray Rule: QB is by definition a "defenseless" player if play involves change of possession."

Defenseless" means you can't target them, but blocking is still legal (with written permission.)

Yes, the QB can still make the tackle. Can be blocked. Same interpretation as leaping WR, who can still make catch & be tackled.

So, what I'm getting from this is that Dial's hit on Murray was legal, hence the rule change now.

Great! So now all the UGA fans on tigerdroppings can let it go, right?

Edit: Nope, I was wrong.
