hjhawks Posted February 10, 2009 Report Posted February 10, 2009 I am sure the investigation will end in a timely manner.... say..... when the playoffs end???? I find it very hard to believe that this could be "unknown" for so long....
DP#1FAN Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 That is real bad being near a school. Look for this to be the max. they can give. Ozen stand up and do what is right!

NHS83LU87 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 That is real bad being near a school. Look for this to be the max. they can give. Ozen stand up and do what is right! It only matters if he was within 300 yards of the school I think I know what your saying but it matters that a talented young man has made what can be a life changing mistake. I hope he learns and moves in a positive direction. I am sure Baylor will not be pleased. Students talk. If an assistant principal and/or coach does not know of such an incident, it is only because they don't want to know! BISD needs to set an example! People will be watching to see what they stand for!!!!!
Lazeek Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Nothing will be done until after the season.......that is a guarantee.......Ozen can't win without him, so they will do nothing until Ozen is out of the playoffs.
Cool Hand Luke Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 AD may have a conflict of interest......you think Â
ozensfinest Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 dont you think the punishment he will be given by the state is enough do he has to be kicked off the team too.......you guys are pathetic when yall see an oppurtunity to bash a ozen player yall take advantage
Lazeek Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 He was arrested for possession of a controlled substance (drugs)!!!!! He should be kicked off the team, out of school and sent to jail. Time that someone teaches these young kids that this type of stuff will not be tolerated!!!!! I would bet anything that Ozen officials and coaching staff knew about this several games ago also!!!!!

Â to be honest, i don't really see anyone bashing a player on here, just the coach and administration. Â the biggest gain from high school sports is character, and if the Ozen coach and AD lets this go without punishment, he turns into just another athlete who realizes he can get away with whatever he wants, as long as he keeps scoring. Â when i was in high school a few years ago, we had kids suspended for MIPs for tobacco. Â what does this say if a kid gets caught with marijuana and faces no disciplinary action from his coach?

jmspears3 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Question...Can the UIL step into this mess, and forfeit their games?

Guest nostradamus Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 The article states that this type of crime warrants placement in the District AEP. To my knowledge, you cannot participate in UIL activities while placed in any alternative educational setting. If I am not mistaken, that is a UIL/TEA rule and not local policy.

Ouch. No wonder they were pretending they didn't know about it.
The Ingredient Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 BISD athletic director Rodney Saveat said he did not know what the policy is regarding a student-athlete who had been arrested for marijuana possession Surely he is being mis-quoted?????????????

Â what does this say if a kid gets caught with marijuana and faces no disciplinary action from his coach? but he'll be punished by the state so no need for double punishment It's not just about the player or one school, but what type of message the BISD Administration wants to send to the community and other players in the entire BISD athletic program. Â He is old enough to know right from wrong and made a poor choice. Â It's not the end of the world but there should be concequences for that choice. Â I do not agree that he should be thrown away for one mistake but there should be some penalty whether it is 1, 2, 3, etc. game suspension or complete removal from the program. Â I doubt Baylor will just look the other way. Â As for as double punishment, playing UIL sports is a privilege not a right and players should be held to a higher standard not a lower one. Â
Guest hoops12 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 Ozen should have to forfit the five games and the player be suspended. But let's all watch and see how BISD handles this matter.

BLUEDOVE3 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 BISD athletic director Rodney Saveat said he did not know what the policy is regarding a student-athlete who had been arrested for marijuana possession Surely he is being mis-quoted????????????? Surely the man was nervous and didn't have time to compose himself when the reporter came out and asked him the question. Probably threw him off guard. His mind was on something else. He was probably thinking, "now how in the hell did they find out?" He panicked!
ozens fastest@1906 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 These highschool players are just kids and dealing with kids you must understand that they aren't perfect and do make mistakes... How many of you adults have made are still make wrong mistakes in life and are jumping on kids like they come from story book lifestyles, I ask how many times have you guys have had a drink or two and got behind a wheel or better than that how many of you guys take a drink while behind the wheel and hope you dont get stopped by the cops. My point is give the kid a break. Was it his fault that he wasnt supended from the team or even a game no, has anybody ever thought that maybe the Coach really didnt know "NO".. I'm not defending anyone, but this incident didnt happen in Beaumont so who's to say his parents didnt bail him out on their own, disciplined their own child on their own, and b/c it was family business never told the Coach or BISD administrators... This is this kids future we're talking about, we've all made mistakes in like, he obviously knew that he was in the wrong and b/c his Coach either didnt know or chose not to punish him you cant blame the kid for playing... "What Would You Do, Suspend Yourself"
