Dundrecous "CousCous" Nelson Arrested

by The Ghost of Jay Cutler on Jan 5, 2012 9:01 AM EST

Insult our injuries OPD has, as Rebel guard Dundrecous Nelson was arrested early yesterday morning on drug paraphernalia charges per the zenith of local Mississippian journalism, OxfordCrimeReport.com. According to Ben Garrett of OMSpirit.com, CousCous was arrested in his apartment after the police smelled traces of marijuana smoke and found whatever it was that led to the paraphernalia charge.

Before the arrival of the Oxford police, Nelson attempted to dispose of the aforementioned paraphernalia by throwing it out his window. He was 30-ish feet away, though, and after a knee-jerk of a heave, the offending materials landed a few feet shy of the windowsill.*

Coach Kennedy is aware of Nelson's arrest, and is doing his "due diligence" regarding the situation. Kennedy and staff reportedly have a "zero tolerance" policy with drug use on the team, and aren't sure how they will proceed with Nelson post-arrest.

*Yes, I know this joke is terrible, but it had to be made.

This is scary.

Reminds of one of my college roomates. He seriously would make that same face and was a red head.

I call Bullshit

Why were the police there in the first place? Were they called? Were they snooping? How often do cops use the excuse “I think I smell pot” to illegally enter someones home or vehicle?

They never even found drugs, so they obviously did not smell pot. Pipes smell but not from outside. Cops create reasons to arrest people, and that is what happened to Cous.

From my experience

They can search if there is probable cause. Smelling it in public is probable cause. I am no lawyer mind you just a fan of Cops(the show) #stillthinkitisbullshit

don't know why my other reply got deleted, but

this happens far to often across our football and basketball teams, i hope the new athletic director can do something about it, because the coaches obviously can’t do a thing about it.

Agreed.

I don’t think this is in any way conspicuous. I bet you there are more players than just those two regularly smoking that pipe. Have you seen the lethargy among most of our basketball players…especially when they walk across campus? The only person I might feel comfortable putting some money on is Murphy Holloway because he doesn’t walk around like a wannabe, mopping, hipsterish thug. He actually smiles, talks to people and doesn’t sound like a moron doing it.

AHHHHHH!!

To be fair, I don't think this kind of thing has been too much of an issue during AFK's tenure.

He’s kept a pretty tight ship. There’s only so much control you can have over you’re players anyway, he can’t follow Cous home and sit in his apartment with him. If anything I credit Kennedy with having the balls to kick off a key player (I use that term loosely) for breaking a team rule.

The football team's lack of discipline is an entirely different issue, however. Those clowns are out of fuckin control.

^^^^This

If you want to hear an accurate and fantastic rant on the disciplinary issues of our football team, listen to the Rebel Sports Radio show “The Flagship” from today. Steven Godfrey nails the issue on the fucking head. (For the record, I was also highly entertained by the Red Cup Radio from the other day. Good stuff, as always.)

I always say 'beer me.' It gets a laugh, like, a quarter of the time.

This is true

Other than Terrance Watson, I can’t think f another legal issue that AK’s players have had.

I listen for the voice inside my head... nothin... I'll do this one myself

Hate to break it to you guys but......

a lot of players smoke pot. I have smoked said substance with players and realized if you suspect that they partake then they most likely do. It is college and people try stuff , but it sounded like these guys were preparing for a smoke off with Snoop Dizzle and Willie Nelson.

You're not breaking anything to us.

Most of us at the Cup don’t care that CousCous smokes weed. What I do care about is his flagrant violation of AK’s rules.

^--What Ghost said.

I know I was ranting yesterday, but this is a clear rule AK has. And even though discipline hasn’t really been a problem with AK, I just wanted an excuse to call for his head. I could have just looked at the last three games, I guess.
