Rutgers’ drug policy good ‘four’ what?
HOW many times can a Rutgers student be caught cheating on a test before he or she’s thrown out? Once? Maybe twice? But certainly not four.
With RU’s football program accused of a pile of violations, including the subjugation of failed drug tests, the Asbury Park Press on Friday reported AD Pat Hobbs’s drug policy would not result in a player’s dismissal until he or she failed a fourth test for “hard” drugs and/or illegal PEDs. Four.
Shucks, a 75 percent tolerance policy! And not until after their fourth chance can a student-athlete get what schools, coaches and media call, “a second chance.”
