Just a nice group of student athletes...

five other ND football players — senior safety Max Redfield, sophomore linebacker Te’von Coney, sophomore running back Dexter Williams, redshirt freshman cornerback Ashton White and freshman receiver Kevin Stepherson — were arrested just after 10 p.m. Friday night following a traffic stop.

All five players involved were charged with possession of marijuana while Redfield, Stepherson and Williams face an additional charge of possession of a handgun without a license.

During a subsequent search of the car, officers allegedly found marijuana and a loaded handgun.

Looks like they're getting close to contending for a NC.

Glass houses, casting stones.

Better extend them the same courtesy we extended ourselves.

Nebraska has to worry about Nebraska. Others are not our concern.

Read that early this morning and first thought was they will be little to no punishment. If the two Alabama players got off these players will too. Internal punishment. Oh well.

Great Post. Now is not the time to be questioning other teams ethics and criminal arrests.

Wasn't questioning anything. It's just been my experience that the teams who most often contend for national championships have the highest number of bad actors on the roster.

So do they just transfer them to a different Catholic school and pretend nothing happened?

Is the Vatican in charge of meting out these punishments?

That was epic secular comedy right there. Outstanding.

Honestly, the pot is what it is. Give them whatever the team punishment is and move on. The battery of police could be any number of things, but perhaps ends up as a drunk disorderly.

This is the 2nd time in about a month, though that we've heard of college athletes carrying loaded, unlicensed weapons in the car. I'm not judging these particular guys, but as a parent whose kids will be going to college in a few years, we don't need that on campus. Any campus. IMO, it's up to law enforcement to send that message more so than the university.

OK, so I guess I had that one wrong.
