Title: 3 Kentucky players charged
Post by: bama57 on September 18, 2012, 05:23:20 PM
Campus police have charged three University of Kentucky football players with possession of marijuana.

Running back Raymond Sanders, cornerback Marcus Caffey and wide receiver Bookie Cobbins were all cited Thursday night, according to a uniform citation filed by UK Police. They are due in Fayette District Court Oct. 9.

The citation states that while on patrol near the 700 block of Woodland Avenue around 9:55 p.m. on Thursday, an officer noticed a "strong scent of marijuana was coming from the basement area" of a building at Cooperstown Apartments.

Each player admitted to the officer that he had smoked marijuana, and the drug was found inside the address listed on the citations.

Sanders and Cobbins were suspended for Saturday night's loss to Western Kentucky. Caffey is sitting out this season after failing to qualify academically.

At his weekly Monday news conference, Coach Joker Phillips said that Sanders and Cobbins will be eligible to play at Florida on Saturday.

"Kids don't always do all the things right," Phillips said. "We hold our kids accountable. We disciplined right away. We don't wait. We try to get as many of the facts as we possibly can. We got them on Friday and we disciplined right away."

Sanders is third on the UK depth chart at running back behind Jonathan George and CoShik Williams. George likely will be the starter in Gainesville.

If I played football for UK, I would do what I needed to do to forget as well.

Ditto.

Saw this article this morning, but decided to allow the guilty accused to maintain their paranoia privacy.  :lol2:
