Damn can somebody photoshop a Tennessee track suit on him!  why? heck, i'm not embarrassed at all by this unfortunate development. i'm even glad that he'll apparently finish his degree at a&t. i mean, its not like he got "busted" for using performance enhancing drugs or anything like that. i'm a "loyalist", so i still support the young man, his sister, and his dad too. the way i see it, "once an aggie, always an aggie"...

The cover-up is usually always worse than the crime.
From the article, it sounds like he got caught lying about something relatively small and things just snowballed from there.

I'm not one for excuses when you know the rules, so I'll just show my Aggie Pride by keeping my mouth shut.

The biggest one it seems was the Eugene, Oregon strike. He and Coach should've been on the ball getting those testers to their home.

Those tests are randomly given on a 24 hour notice if they can not contact you . Most of the time it's a knock on the door type thing at which only the testers know when they are going to show up .

Well ESPN didn't do us any favors! "The Athletics Integrity Unit announced Saturday it was provisionally suspending the North Carolina A&T sprinter for tampering with the antidoping process after an unsuccessful testing attempt on June 18" REST OF STORY

The rules are the rules. No one was picking on Ross. He was the only sprinter in America that got a surprise test? NOPE. His dad ain’t crazy either. He doesn’t know what his son was into? He’s been around the track game for decades. I’m happy he’s going to graduate...but I’m not giving the son (or his dad) a pass on this one.
