Marcus Thomas, we need you man..You're a beast
Defensive tackle Marcus Thomas spent today in meetings with school officials to appeal a five-game suspension he received earlier this week for marijuana use.
I hope what his Mother said is true...
“Basically, we think he’s being hit with double-jeopardy,” she said. “He’s being hit twice with the same mistake. I’m behind him 100 percent.”
The reasoning given by Thomas and his Mother is that the first positive test and the second positive test were from the same single instance. Supposedly, there was not enough time in between tests to have the THC clear the system.
If not...do the crime, do the time.
I'm sure Marcus Thomas is the only athlete in the NCAA that has ever done this drug, so I guess they will make an example out of him. But we need him back, he gets double teamed and makes it easier for the rest of the team. He is a cornerstone of UF's rock solid defense.

Many active drugs enter the body's fat cells. What is different (but not unique) about THC is that it exits fat cells slowly. As a result, traces of marijuana can be found in the body for days or weeks following ingestion. However, within a few hours of smoking marijuana, the amount of THC in the brain falls below the concentration required for detectable psychoactivity. The fat cells in which THC lingers are not harmed by the drug's presence, nor is the brain or other organs. The most important consequence of marijuana's slow excretion is that it can be detected in blood, urine, and tissue long after it is used, and long after its psychoactivity has ended (www.drugpolicy.com). And to my knowledge, the last known weight of Thomas was 296 pounds!!
Your statement: "I'm sure Marcus Thomas is the only athlete in the NCAA that has ever done this drug, " should be reworded. Marcus Thomas is the only athlete to be caught using this drug and I’m sure he is not the only person in the NCAA who has used the drug. According to the 2004 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), approximately 96.8 million Americans ages 12 and older reported trying marijuana at least once during their lifetimes, representing 40.2% of the population ages 12 and older. You have to take into account this is a survey, and considering the topic at hand, more people would have been inclined to lie to look better in the spotlight by stating they never used or haven’t used the drug currently.
That's me using sarcasm bud. Sorry it doesnt show online
