Athletes Continuing Drug Use

Eric Crawford of the Louisville's Courier-Journal had some interesting thoughts on drug use by college athletes. College coaches have varying views on discipline for drug offenses. One of Crawford's suggestions is to make universal legislation across Division I sports for drug offenders.

With coaches feeling the pressure to win, some are very lenient, not wanting to upset hungry fan bases. By taking the discipline out of the coaches hands, at least all teams will be on a level playing field.

Just a thought. Change needs to come soon in some fashion.
