OT: OSU DL arrested for rioting, drugs

Urban Meyer dismissed Tracy Sprinkle from the Ohio State football team on Monday after the defensive lineman was arrested over the weekend and charged with cocaine possession after a bar brawl in Lorain.

Sprinkle, 19, entered not guilty pleas to charges of rioting, failure to disperse, possession of cocaine and drug paraphernalia in a Monday morning arraignment in a Lorain courtroom.

Meyer has previously suspended Sprinkle from football activities indefinitely pending the outcome of his case. Now he is completely off the team, though a team spokesman said that Sprinkle's status could be looked at again depending on the outcome of his legal issues.

Meyer followed a similar path in 2012 with linebacker Storm Klein. He was dismissed from the team that summer after facing a charge of domestic violence and assault. Klein later pleaded to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct and rejoined the team and did play that season.

Make the headline by tossing him off the team, let it die down for 5-6 months, kid gets a OSU booster /attorney, pleads it down, quietly bring him back. No worse for wear. Kid probably loses the season at worst but he will be back . You know that kid will play again at OSU.
 
Marrone would have pulled in the team and give mandatory drug tests for all.

Meyer would scream "run for the hills" boys
