Rumor has it one of the linebackers has left the program and others are on NCAA suspension or school suspension due to steriod use. Any info?

Lets not get into rumors again, please. If there are names and some kind of proof, lets talk, until then, random speculation is never a good thing.

Jenkins Reece for one

See these are rumors we don't need floating around.

NCAA random drug tests were failed; add this to player arrests & academic problems.......something is up.

Rumor mongering is worse than post padding...

Ok, where is JR? Check the participation for the last 2 games. He's not the only one.

I looked into this and was just laughed at by a source who is as inside as they get. If there were any truth to this rumor at all, this person likely would have known about it by now. I will be very surprised if we hear anything else about this.

Where are you getting this information?

JR is, without a doubt, gone. Check with your inside source. He is not the only one.

Again, while I'm not saying you're 100% wrong, I would like to know where you are getting your information.

People who make crap like this their first post are almost always trolls. Please, ignore the troll. Nothing to see here.

I have my doubts as well but should have a final answer tomorrow. The only thing that has me wondering is Reese has not shown on game participation for the last 4 games.

As far as others go, if LB's are the only ones in question, Schaefer played some cleanup time in two games, Sprenkel in one, Cutler only played against SEMO and NIU, and Burkart played in every game except OK, NIU, and EMU. I don't have 100% accurate information on CMU, also, this is from the same source (bgsu.edu) that said Jimmy Carson played against EMU.

Everyone else has played in pretty much every game except three freshman that are likely redshirted.

I don't think the validity of the information is the central issue here. Academic problems and drug test results are decidely personal issues. They are not appropriate subjects for a public discussion. It's an invasion of another person's privacy and, in my opinion, beneath the standards of this forum.

This guy is an idiot. Reese was injured in the Temple game I believe. I think he suffered a lacerated kidney/spleen or something like that. Anyone remember that?

the player who got hurt in the Temple game was Melvin Cole a DB
