Don't be bitter. KU players get tested too, they just have enough self-control to stay off it for a little bit before the test, just like at every other school. CK is just a ****ing dumbass.

I have first hand knowledge to refute your bullshit statement. Not about CK being a dumbass, obviously.

Of course he got high on a weekly basis. He wasn't tested, nor were many before him.

Your post infers that KU warns the players ahead of time when the tests are scheduled so they can stay clean "for a little bit". Apparently Aquib Talib never got the memos while in Lawrence.

So KU players do get tested for drugs? Saul said they didn't. Maybe he just meant basketball players.

IMO, there's no way they stay off it at any time. But there are many ways to get around a drug test.

The easiest way is to simply not test.

First thing I've seen about the Kelly situation that wasn't just a rumor..

Cats' Kelly under scrutiny again

K-State investigating potential violation by senior forward
THE CAPITAL-JOURNAL

Forward Curtis Kelly remains a member of Kansas State's basketball program while the school investigates a potential violation of department policy.

School officials could not confirm the potential violation, citing student privacy issues.

“Curtis is still a member of our basketball program,” associate athletic director Casey Scott said Tuesday.

Kelly's status for the rest of his senior season remains uncertain, however. The Topeka Capital-Journal has learned the potential violation could result in Kelly's permanent suspension from the team and loss of financial aid, though Kelly has filed an appeal to retain his playing status.

The situation is not believed to involve NCAA rules violations, and no definitive time frame exists for the appeals process. Kelly's availability during the appeal will be determined internally.

K-State's student-athlete handbook provides an outline of the appeals process. According to the handbook's protocol, athletic director John Currie would provide an initial ruling, which then could be appealed to K-State's General Scholarship and Financial Aid Committee.

Attempts to reach Currie and K-State coach Frank Martin were unsuccessful.

Kelly was a preseason All-Big 12 pick, but his senior season has been marked by off-court drama. The 6-foot-8 forward began the season on the bench, missing K-State's first three games for transgressions that were never fully explained.

“I'm just not in the mood to play him the way he's practicing,” Martin said after K-State's season opener.

Kelly then served a six-game suspension for his role in accepting between $300 and $500 in clothing discounts from a Manhattan department store, an incident that also resulted in a three-game suspension for fellow senior Jacob Pullen.

Kelly hasn't been the only source of drama for the Wildcats, who sit at 16-8 and 4-5 in the Big 12 after being picked to win the league in the preseason.

Post players Freddy Asprilla and Wally Judge left the team during a recent two-week stretch, meaning any time without Kelly would leave K-State perilously thin in the post. Center Jordan Henriquez-Roberts and forward Jamar Samuels are the only other big men on scholarship.

Kelly is averaging 9.9 points and 4.9 rebounds in 15 games for the Wildcats this season.

Got my telefund call tonight. Said I'd donate if they could get me the scoop on what Currie will do. Anxiously awaiting their call back.
