i thought drug policy enforcement was strictly up to the school
Nope. Having one is up to the school, but once they put one in they have to enforce it or it is a violation.

ETA: That is why multiple schools dont have one. Oregon didnt have one until 2012. They only put one in place because they were taking so much heat for not doing it

i could be wrong but im under the impression that this is still some weird grey area. as this espn article says...

Alabama allows the athletic director, head coach and its Sports Medicine Committee to determine what, if any, penalty is warranted after a first positive test. The second means the athlete will be sidelined for 15 percent of the season and/or a suspension of up to 30 days, and the third a one-year ban from games.

and they only test when the ncaa forces them to, and only for the drugs required, nothing more. we actually have the policy but we test for essentially everything (and i really wish we'd stop).
