UCF players being suspended 6 games for marijuana is reefer madness!

Two UCF football players get suspended for not one, not two, not three, but SIX games next year because they tested positive for marijuana.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is criminal — much more criminal than the decriminalized act of college students smoking a little weed.

Insanely, two promising young UCF football players — sophomore receiver Tristan Payton ande redshirt freshman cornerback Nevelle Clark — have been suspended for half of next season because they tested positive for pot during NCAA-mandated drug tests taken in conjunction with the Knights' Cure Bowl appearance.
