That being said, when you're a suspension away from being kicked out of school or you're on probation, then you need to be smart enough to say no. He put pot above his career and school. That isn't very bright


Oh please, maybe he didn't take it seriously enough, but to say he put pot above his career is overly dramatic. Was he immature? Yes. maybe arrogant thinking he wouldn't get kicked out? Sure, of course being immature and arrogant is pretty common among 18-22 y/old men.
If anyone thought a few failed drug test would jeopardize his career, they are naive or don't follow the NFL very closely.

think most people look at Mathieu the way that people look at Dez Bryant. I'm sure that there are some OSU fans that worship Bryant but most of the world thinks he's a moron


Bryant was arrested on a least one charge of domestic violence. That's different that getting high with your friends. As for the world thinking he is a moron, people who cares.

Mathieu got arrested for it after being kicked off the team. So I would say that getting kicked off the team should have been the point he got serious.

It loses guys a lot of money.

I still don't think most teams want a guy that got booted from his team, was arrested again, and had to go to rehab. The quotes from teams are showing this. Someone will take a chance on him but teams won't be lining up.
