Why do think it is a player? Sounds to me like it is one of the recently departed coaches who called Barry Jackson up.

If you are an ex-Miami coach who is looking for gig, wouldn't you like a news article you can point to say it wasn't your coaching, but the doped up players that resulted in the losses while you were coaching at Miami.

It's a technique prosecuters use all the time to get a judge's approval; leak something to the media to get a story written and then use the story as a probable cause basis for the judge to allow a search, issue a records subpeona, etc.

If you had Cheech Williams as your QB, you'd be limited in what you'd call as well.

Cheech would have been left on the bus - and the Offense should have gone to Manny and said to leave the OC at home - he's too damned dumb to be on the sidelines.

that easy to get? The medical staff could verify dental surgery. I know the team used to have one or several team dentists. Don't know about now. Not that easy to get doctors to write opioid prescriptions these days. Docs are scared. DEA and state databases. Guys who write freely can get caught and prosecuted. Maybe South Florida is different. Florida has often had "pill mills."

People who smoke weed disgust me. Any player caught smoking weed should be reported to the police and expelled from school - zero exceptions.

you'd probably have 20 or so on scholarship....if that. Weed seems to be ubiquitous. My days are long past....try 1970. I have no desire to use illegal drugs....but today's kids.

LOL at authorities. Medical is legal in 33 states and fully legal in 11 more. Even the ones that don't mostly have decriminalized and even if they haven't, would laugh and hang up on you. Are you 80 years old? WTF

I have a bad back, common for us older folks, and I go to a pain specialist for injections. He does prescribe opioids for those patients with severe, unrelenting pain, not treatable through any other approach. He requires an opioid contract. Many doctors do. He also now prescribes medical marijuana. I've never asked for either.

I'm fine with occasional spinal injections and physical therapy.

There must be a legitimate role for medical marijuana if my very conservative and prudent pain specialist prescribes it. He would not do so if there was not good support for its safety and efficacy.
