OSU's DL Tracy Sprinkle Charged with Cocaine Possession

Submitted by alum96 on

Not to make light of this but if the NCAA caught him I assume a 1 year suspension? Urbz he misses 2 games? 

No seriously - hard to see him stay on the team after this sort of charge.  He is currently suspended indefinitely.

According to the report obtained by cleveland.com on Sunday, an officer responded to a "large fight in progress" at the lounge. The officer described about 50 people outside the lounge upon arrival, with several groups of them fighting.

Sprinkle was allegedly one of those involved and was arrested at the scene and placed in the back of a police car.

According to the report of a second officer, who placed Sprinkle under arrest, two small bags of cocaine were found stuffed under the back seat after Sprinkle was removed from that vehicle and placed in another car. According to the report, they weighed 0.2 grams each and both tested positive on the scene as cocaine.

Dude, you totally buried the lead here.  The incident went down at the GROWN AND SEXY Lounge.  That's right...Tracy Sprinkle at the Grown and Sexy Lounge.

Urban could suspend him the entire year and it wouldn't matter. He was not going to play anyway. 3rd string guy.

As of now, he's off the team, pending trial outcomes. It's hard to say posit the whole "circle of trust" meme when you're talking about young, promising players that haven't had the chance to contribute yet. If you start forcing off all your true freshman and sophomores to make room, you don't have any depth.

Drugs inc said heroin is more popular. I hope he gets his life straightened out, and does zero drugs.

Prison? For a long period of time? For possessing a tiny amount of coke? I don't see what that accomplishes. He already got his coke seized and had to spend a night in jail, plus he'll undoubtedly be suspended from football for a long time and possibly be dismissed from the team altogether. Incarceration would seem to just be a cruel excess.
