Title: LSU's Mathieu and Ware Suspended

The RUMOR is that they're suspended for failed drug tests.

"The suspensions could turn into multiple-game suspensions as well."

If true, WHOA.

Couldn't get your link to open.  This is NBC Sports.

Looks like a single-game suspension.  The Booger golden horseshoe is implanted and functional.

The rumor has been confirmed by ESPN, also.  http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7123703/lsu-suspends-tyrann-mathieu-therold-simon-spencer-ware

According to this site, http://www.mrsec.com/2010/12/sec-drug-policies-arent-created-equal/, LSU's policy is to not suspend players after the first failed drug test.  So, it would seem logical that this is the second failed drug test.  LSU's policy for a second failed drug test is a suspension of 15% of the season.  Taken conservatively at 12 games, 15% of 12 is 1.8.  Who thinks Les doesn't round down?   :D

Suspensions could turn into multiple games. I swear the boogers have a pact with God and the devil

This disappoints me.  I want them to play against us so there is no doubt when we beat them by 2 scores.

That's true, but it's likely we caught a break too.  These guys will be out for the remainder of the season if they cheated or lied about it.  There is more to this than a "random drug test".  You can bet that they were tested based on previous information or previous testing.

Ok, I'm wondering who doles out the punishment?  Les Miles or the NCAA itself?  I googled prior cases and there was a UNLV basektball player who was given 1 year suspension for marijuana direction from the NCAA..and he was 22 years old.  I don't know if it was multiple times or what.

And buh bye 2011 Honey Badger for Heisman campaign.

Between this and Jordan Jefferson, what it shows is a different kind of team chemistry than one finds at Bama.

Won't make a difference against *uburn - they will still beat the brakes off of them.

Les would not say what led to the suspensions, nor would he say how long they would last.

 :lol:  CC, this critter is also "way left of center" (sensu Les when asked if the suspensions were due to drug tests).

A former player told me it is extremely hard to fail a drug test because they are given a calendar of the dates the test are done.  I don't know if this is actually true.
