    It is unclear if he will play Saturday.

    Possesion of a controlled substance?? And cops don't just think, "hmm that driver looks like his license is suspended, I'll pull him over..." Thay have to have a reason. I'd say this is more than is being reported.

    Sounds like a sweep up job to me...

      1 pill of Xanax? Why? I agree there's a big broom at work here.

      Here's what I found on Xanax.

      Xanax is the brand name for the tranquilizer Alprazolam, an antianxiety (anxiolytic) and antipanic drug. Xanax is a benzodiazepine (a class of drugs that slow down the central nervous system.)

      Xanax is used primarily as short-term treatment of mild to moderate anxiety, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), and nervous tension.

      Xanax may also be used to treat:

      panic disorders / panic attacks
      activity depression
      irritable bowel syndrome
      anxiety due to a neurosis
      symptoms of PMS (if extreme)
      some cancer pains (given with various narcotics)
      agoraphobia
      essential tremor
      ringing ears

      Xanax should not be used to treat everyday stress or tension.

        Slater is the only senior on the team that plays any meaningful role, and as I noted in the other thread on this upcoming game, he did start Tuesday, but was completely ineffective and not a factor. I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't pegged to start Saturday, but now the coach is faced with the decision of what to do.
        Rightfully, the kid should be suspended as he clearly is in violation of the law, and as we all know from the Richard McBride chronicals, he needs to be disciplined.
        Or is the Mississippi State coach Rick Stansbury going to take the Bruce Pearl route of discipline and value only the kid's potential talent and not do a thing until the kid gets into more trouble, goes to jail, or until the press demands it?

          I worked at an Inpatient Psych Unit and Xanax is a drug that let's you 'chill out' it is commonly sold on the 'black market' and we had to watch for patients hiding the medicine in their cheeks to sell after they got out.

            In case you guys don't notice, many message boards (ours included) are inundated with people who sign up for the sole purpose of posting ads and links to web site that sell stuff, similar to the unsolicited e mails you all get.
            Many of those "spam posters" as we call them are trying to peddle Xanax (along with investment tips, gambling links, and porn) as a recreational drug, just like they used Valium 15 years ago.
            We delete those guys as fast as they sign up but the fact that so mant peddle Xanax, shows there must be a market for it.

            The kid needs to be soundly and decisively disciplined as an example to the others on the team....so let's see if the coach does it.
            I'd say 50-50, as most coaches value the wins and their job more than the actual right thing to do.

                        I see a lot of parallels between our team and MS, per MStateDawg's description. In fact, as I read, I was like "6-in-taller Ruff, ZA, Will-n-JC, Will-n-JC, hm-maybe-ADub, JJ, DA-last-night, Matt..." etc.

                        Looks like their bench is a little deeper than ours. I hope everyone's healthy Saturday. JC looked like he was favoring his knee towards the end of the night after hitting the floor a time or two... but as there was no press release today proclaiming him sadly broken again, I have faith he was just being careful.

                            Just so long as he places his gum in the proper receptacle ... or whatever Jimmy was grumpy about last night.

                            Perhaps he was just trying to teach ZA an important lesson: DON'T LITTER!
