I just saw where this suspension is most likely the result of a violation of the substance abuse policy. If this is true and if this suspension holds for at least the first game...a very important game against Cal...then my personnal opinion is that this could be egg in the face of Urban Meyer...as we all know full well how he handled a similar situation with Marcus Thomas last year. You can rip Fulmer for being lax with players in the past..but at least when he lays the law down its truly a punishment and not just for appearances. If he followed the Urban meyer approach for suspending players over substance abuse then Coker would sit out Arkansas St. UL-Lafayette this year

It was a result of substance abuse policy, for sure. Marijuana, to be exact. If this had happened 2 months ago, he'd be off the team.

The athletic department changed the substance abuse policy to the current, more leniant policy. In the old policy, a player was dismissed on a 3rd positive test.

I'd rather someone other then Berry. He's too valuable at CB and might get injured. KR's take some big hits, especially now that they are kicking off from the 30.

Do we know the extent of the suspension as of yet...Will it only be 1 game???

Also, one other point...a lot of the people (not necessarily on VN) that are saying this is stupid and that maybe Coker shouldn't be suspended indefinitely are the SAME ones that were screaming about "discipline problems...it's all Fulmers fault" not very long ago...just an observation, but what do I know...I live in Indiana

It's hard to get hurt when they guys can't touch you!

seriously somebody find his email address and send him the article about james working at tgi fridays. he also might want to consider the nfl's new player conduct policy. even if he gets back to playing football he has cost himself draft position and serious money.

What a MORON!!!! He has the whole world in front of him and can't stop from smoking weed.

Personally...I just don't get it when I see athletes throw their career away over weed. Believe me...I am no stranger to mary jane...I knew her pretty well while I was in college. But how could these guys throw away the chance at millions..or, in the case of Ricky Wiliiams, actually having millions...to smoke weed.

1. It's not that addictive

AND

2. It's not that great of an experience
