Possible Player Suspensions

[ysupenguins14]

I am lost as to why Ruiz was the only disciplined this past Saturday.  Did he do something else to receive that?

The penalties use to be more severe up to a half season of eligibility on the 1st offense for cannabis ( If indeed that what it is )..Things have drastically changed since then and the penalties are much lighter ( Just unfortunate it's in a national semifinal game ) The NCAA spends over 6 million a year to educate student athletes on this very topic..I can't imagine Bo will be a happy camper tonight at O'Charley's

Is it legal to do weed if you play in Colorado?  The world may never know because Colorado will never play for anything meaningful (at least for the foreseeable future)

We aren't playing in Colorado, but we are playing in Washington and grass is legal there!  This should be voided.

Probably not PEDs, probably Ganja.  Thats what kids this age do.  It is all speculation.

Bingo - no speculation..nailed it.

I'm class of '73, WTF is Ganja?

You have me by almost 10, It was just before my time, but the word became famous from Cheech & Chong. They were meeting up with some Jamaican dealer. It was slang for weed.

I wish we were talking about the game instead of this

Can anyone confirm that Ruiz missed game Saturday counts his 1-game suspension? Or is it deeper than that?

Knowing how petty the NCAA is, they wouldn't even count the first half that Ruiz sat out. He did take the field in the 2nd half, so best case scenario is maybe he has to sit out a half. I am, of course, purely speculating.

WKBN at 5 is stating they "will not release names". Also saying YSU will not comment. I think it's safe to say it's Ruiz. But, who else?

Read my previous post.  Only 13 players were required at random in Jacksonville.  Once a person pops on the test a larger sample size is then gathered.  It probably took time to get initial results back, then plan the screening and execute it then wait for the results.  That was my point about critical thinking.  The other players were likely not tested at Jax State.  They were probably tested at YSU  late in the week once they got the results back on the first guy.

After every playoff game. The winning team. 12 random players.

Sorry meant 12

Charles Grove reporting 1 impact player on offense, 2 impact players on defense and a 4th that plays a significant role he didn't say if that player was offense or defense. There will be a story in tonight's Vindicator and those players will not be making the trip. I think this is a high number to test positive out of the 12 that were tested..Very concerning
