Does legal weed help Colorado's football program?

Not that they can openly tout that to recruits but it kinda goes without saying you can walk down any block in Boulder and buy some weed.

Still against NCAA rules to use, regardless of state laws.

They drug test at a team and NCAA level

You could walk down any street in Boulder 40 years ago and buy weed too.

Not true. I had to ride my bike almost 2 full miles to get some yesterday
It has to help, but at the same time most elite college athletes are black. I find it hard to believe those same individuals want the 90-something percent white community and weather that comes along with living in Boulder

What about Cal and Stanford?
They have a lot of dispensaries in San Francisco and anybody can get a medicinal license, anyone.
Or Los Angeles?

I doubt that. We tested quarterly

I was in Boulder 3 weeks ago. A simple walk around campus (white chicks) could seal the deal for me.

Are there NCAA guidelines for testing for weed? Is it up to the school? The conference? Also as far as consequences....is that up to the school or is there NCAA oversight?

Most players really don't care to be honest.

The NCAA also test on its own, but it is extremely infrequent and usually at post season events.
If you fail a school test, you usually are forced into counseling for strike 1 with no missed time, miss a few games for strike 2, and are gone pecan for strike 3.(this is all dependent on your schools specific policy, but this is pretty much the standard)
If you fail an NCAA test, you are suspended for 365 days automatically

As if any football players at any university have trouble finding weed

We got tested quarterly and every post season by NCAA for street and anabolics.
As it was supposedly random it wasn't because same guys always were tested
The school administered tests were monthly based on quarterly or arrests

Wasn't SMU it was at SMS and the whole valley was tested that way, it wasn't their rule either. We had a reputation in baseball for juicing deservedly so though. I know Cepicky and Burkhardt juiced. The cleanest two guys Howard and Hart were always tested

I'm guessing the guys who would choose where they go to school and where they play football based on their ability to smoke weed don't have the best work ethic or brains
