Bad week for butt chuggin' Danny O'Brien

One of our big OT's went down with a hammy early in the second quarter.

A lot of workplaces require drug testing after an injury. Your injury could be related to drug use. Football teams might do the same thing. It makes sense to me.

The game was played in College Station too, so it could've just been some curious MDs who are also aTm alums

It's like getting fired on your day off

Or fired from a volunteer gig. Just seems to be more to the story.

There are also some rumors that butch knowingly played Hurd against UGA when he had a concussion. wIth the recent head injury talk that wouldn't be good if true.

They went into that during the A&M game and reviewed several plays during the UGA game that may have caused Hurd's concussion and even a week later, the evidence appeared inconclusive. I believe the consensus was that they were unclear when it happened and he didn't show any symptoms until much later in the game. I think I remember Danielson said something about UT needing to be a little more diligent with assessing the players when they come off the field after a big hit.

This is around the time the NCAA random drug test results, done yearly for football, come back....e.g. Grier.

Maybe he tried to pull a Peyton on the trainer?

If this was the case, does booting the kid from the team spare him the one year ban by the NCAA?

Trouble is Bart, when a Vol gets a severe blow to the head, it improves his brain function.

Looks like it was confirmed as a failed drug test. His 3rd one...
