Buzz's Players In Top Form for S16 game
« on: March 28, 2019, 03:26:10 PM »
Ty Outlaw will play for Virginia Tech after being charged with marijuana possession

https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-spt-virginia-tech-ty-outlaw-marijuana-20190328-story.html

Virginia Tech forward Ty Outlaw will play Friday night against Duke in the Sweet 16 after being cited for marijuana possession last week, the team announced Thursday.

Hokies coach Buzz Williams and Outlaw addressed the situation after the team practiced at the East regional site, Capital One Arena in Washington.

"Ty took a drug test by an outside agency yesterday before we left. And the test was negative," Williams said. "So maybe sometimes what scrolls across TV may not actually be the whole story or what is published on Twitter in an ironically efficient pace, may not be the whole story. So Ty's handled everything perfect. He's been transparent not only with me but with all the authorities involved. And I think it will play itself out."

I mentioned this elsewhere, but this is an eligibility issue.

You mean...the kid had a small amount of something I can walk down the street in Bellevue and purchase freely?

I don't buy weed but I have always found the laws against marijuana to be ridiculous.

You know that many of the Founding Fathers not only grew it but rather enjoyed an afternoon toke? Thomas Jefferson extolled the virtues of weed  in more than one correspondence.

Marijuana became verboten beginning in the '20's when it was viewed as the mind altering substance of choice of blacks and Hispanics. Much of the hysteria around weed was actually a proxy for anti-black and anti-Hispanic sentiment.

So Ty Outlaw got busted for weed? Who cares. It's now legal in 33 states.

And he would be declared ineligible had he been randomly drug tested by the NCAA.  That's why Buzz did the third party test - so questions of his eligibility were addressed immediately.

My understanding is that cops came to his apartment, smelled weed, and came back with a search warrant the next day. This all occurred while he was with the team in San Jose.

"TJ possessed it, so it shouldn't be illegal" usually isn't the best argument......

I give them a good shot to beat Duke.  Duke is mostly freshmen, they aren’t scared of Duke, have beaten them a bunch of times in the last few years, albeit at home.

Game in DC, should have plenty of Tech fans there and those that hate Duke will be cheering for Hokies.

Very good coach, very big a hole, revealing character, etc.  Would do well at schools where BBall is secondary and he can maneuver.

Maybe, but it isn’t in many places. We don’t get to pick and choose which laws, unless you have a friend in Crook County that can get you off.
