O'Brien dismissed from UT football team

 

[Neyland Law Vol]

Must have been drugs found in his system at the hospital.

As if the season couldn't get any better...

 

[willinhf]

Maybe, but I'm pretty sure that info remains confidential

As well it should. As well it should.

Next man up. I hope DOB gets drafted this year. He will always be a #VFL in my book for sure. Dude has been here through some insanely rough times.

Mods get busy

He goes out on Saturday on a stretcher and then gets booted from the team? Brutal...

It's called adding insult to injury

O'Brien dismissed from UT football team

 

[dduncan4163]

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) - Defensive lineman Danny O'Brien was dismissed from the Tennessee football team for violation of team rules, according to a UT spokesperson.
In a news release, officials said the dismissal was not related to the injury he suffered against Texas A&M.
If O'Brien needs additional medical care, a spokesperson said it would be provided by the University of Tennessee.

In college football 99.9% of "violation of team rule" infractions are for weed.

If that's the case -IF- Just shocking to make it this far in his career to have a weed problem

 

[Neyland Law Vol]

As well it should. As well it should.

Players may sign waiver that allows UT access to all blood results from care provided at UT's expense.

Is a grown man (me) crying an appropriate reaction to this news?

 

[GetEmVols]

Wonder if they found drugs(PEDs perhaps) in his system during his medical examinations.

No reason to think this at all, but something doesn't add up obviously.

 

[McDad]

He was just holding it for his friend, Brandon Chicken.

legalize it

Exactly, it's already proven less dangerous than alcohol.

 

[dduncan4163]

Drug test while at hospital? No info, just guessing.

This would be my guess too

That couldn't be released. HIppa violation.

legalize it

Should be a Felony even if it's less than an ounce.

Players may sign waiver that allows UT access to all blood results from care provided at UT's expense.

Even without that type of waiver, I am fairly certain the hospital would have to (or be allowed to) release information to primary care physicians, such as the team doctor.

Drug test while at hospital? No info, just guessing.

That's somewhat standard now, so it is a real possibility.

 

[GetEmVols]

That couldn't be released. HIppa violation.

Is there any paperwork these students do to give UT access to this info? Just curious.

 

[montanatenn]

This guy has been my favorite all season. He will be missed greatly. Hate it.

What. Why
