Where is the team discipline?
So, found this video on Facebook appears to have been posted by Maurice Smitherman it shows the team in the locker room celebrating the Egg Bowl win. He is smoking what appears to be a flattened cigarillo and passing it to others who are smoking it as well.
Well as I type this I see that the video has been taken down, but I have photos. Ok, for the record I have smoked weed in the past and I will smoke it in the future too. I am NOT opposed to the legalization of weed, I think it is less harmful than alcohol.
However, there are instances where I am opposed to lighting up and smoking weed and in a one of them is in a football locker room among teammates immediately after a game. Hell, in the video you could hear Coach Moorehead talking to the team in the background and at one point Smitherman stops smoking and bows his head for what I assume was a team prayer. Then lights up a second flattened cigarillo as players in the background sing Hail Dear Old State.
Again, not trying to be a prude - players can leave the campus and celebrate and smoke and drink and party after a win and I have no problem with it. But the audacity to light up and smoke openly in the locker room in full view of teammates and coaches is wrong. And when you add this to the "Tutor-gate" situation we had this year it has to make you question the leadership and discipline of our team.
Feel free to flame away.
