Pig Howard dismissed from team...

[TGVol]

Not many Dooley players left.

As far as offense goes that's unfortunate. I'm sure Butch knows that better than anyone given the spanking he got by that offense few years ago.

 

[crusse10]

I would like to see LSU thoroughly drug-test Fournette before the season progresses much further.

I'd prefer they wait until he's played a full SEC schedule this season

 

[northknoxvol]

Yet another lug nut has fell to the side of the road.........how many more are holding the wheels onto the Butch Jones era?

 

[Roustabout]

No, it was a head injury. He was dismissed for a head injury.

I apologize if it's already been brought up, but what's the deal with Von Pearson being "released" from the team.

 

[crusse10]

LSU tells players when the drug test are so they don't fail them. So if someone does fail one they earned that suspension.

pretty sure everyone does that

 

[sjt18]

It's also the law right now.

Even if it weren't, the rule would not be stupid. When you receive a PRIVILEGE like a scholarship or a job, it is perfectly legitimate for a higher standard to be enforced. Don't want to comply... don't agree to the arrangement.

It is a value choice. If this is really the reason then apparently he valued pot more than football.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

This. It's been reported the past couple weeks that pig and butch had some heated moments together. This is not all ab pig failing dt. Legit smokescreen going on here.

Please dont go there with the speculation!

it was a mistype

Most major athletic programs (hell, even mtsu warns their players of upcoming screens) does this and if we don't warn our players, then that's stupid on our part.

It's also the law right now.

understood if thats the argument, but we can play coy all we want, it has been reported that in the NFL pot use for pain is up around possibly 70 percent or even as high as 90% ^^^^^

Well maybe the unhappiness over how he treats his players is true to some extent

This sucks for Pig, but Gawwwd, you're SUCH a drag, man!

True to your handle, you sucked the life out of this thread.

Can I send you a candy gram, brother?

Cocktail?

Slurpee?

Life Savers?

Some water maybe?


They only pay 12-13 of these a year, how about trying to enjoy a little?

 

[patrick]

JAllen knows more than you.

He doesnt apparently know the published drug testing policies and penalties at Tennessee. Student Athletes dont get 5 strikes at Tennessee.

 

[JettVol]

I was gonna be a great receiver for UT......but I got high....
I was gonna score a bunch of Touchdowns......but I got high....

Now I'm just a student.....and I know why........
CAUSE I GOT HIGH, BECAUSE I GOT HIGH, BECAUSE I GOT HIGH!!!!


(allegedly, I have no inside info just making light of a ****ty situation)

I hope everything works out for Pig howard in the future.

 

[hog88]

pretty sure everyone does that

I think you're right until you fail your first one, then they're random I believe.

solid

 

[kcvols1]

Multiple failed drug tests. No excuses to be made for the guy. Good luck in life.

In 10 years, he'll wish he'd have waited for the legislation to catch up.

Damn shame.

 

[paradox89]

Bright future ahead of him

Tasteless and ignorant for a player that legit gave his all for Tennessee.

 

[wesleydmartin]

Not saying its right or wrong, but the rules are in place, he rolled the dice and lost.

of course, agree 100%

doesnt mean weed tests arent a joke and unnecessary.....i posted previously about the numbers in the NFL, aint like they just pick up the habit after graduating or getting drafted

 

[vtvol98]

It's not like he was going to be catching any passes anyway.

 

[crusse10]

I think you're right until you fail your first one, then they're random I believe.

Wasn't Da'Rick told before the final one he failed? I thought that was basically all but announced by Dooley

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

Well maybe the unhappiness over how he treats his players is true to some extent

Yea cause I'm sure that's what caused him to fail so many drug tests........SMDH, go somewhere else n ***** n moan about our coach cause quite frankly it's gettin very damn old around here!!

Maybe all y'all that want a new coach can go start your own forum n have a miserable life together!!! If ya don't have nything nice to say just don't say nything at all geeez guys come on n give it a freakin break!!!!

 

[feathersax]

Damn shame.

Pothead logic. :crazy:

 

[crusse10]

Tasteless and ignorant for a player that legit gave his all for Tennessee.

if he was kicked out for multiple failed drug tests, he legit did not give his "all"

 

[volsof09]

Really hate it for Pig, I will never forget his face walking off the field after the Georgia game in 2013.
