      <title>Poor Joe Hamilton: Former Georgia Tech QB in trouble</title>
      <description>After being arrested for a DUI on Monday, former Georgia Tech QB Joe Hamilton has resigned from his post as the assistant director of player personnel. The QB led the Yellow Jackets back in 1998 until Hamilton graduated and tried his hand at the NFL, which obviously didn't work out very well. Check out this highlight film of him back in the day though, man's got moves.</description>

      <title>Ex-Georgia Tech QB resigns as AD after getting into trouble</title>
      <description>Former Georgia Tech star QB Joe Hamilton resigned on Wednesday as Georgia Tech's assistant athletic director of player personnel a day after he was charge with marijuana possession, driving while intoxicated, and hit-and-run. Hamilton had just been hired last week as the AD. Way to screw it up Joe. You could have been athletic director- now all you will be remembered for is being a star college QB who everyone admires...what a waste.</description>

      <title>Former Georgia Tech QB faces drug, alcohol, hit-and-run charges</title>
      <description>Less than a week after being named Georgia Tech's assistant director of player personnel, former QB Joe Hamilton decided to hit-and-run while intoxicated and possess marijuana for police to find. Hamilton, who finished second in Heisman Trophy balloting in 1999, was pulled over by police when his car matched the description and license plate number of a hit-and-run incident near the school. His blood-alcohol content level was 0.199 and police found marijuana and an open beer bottle in his car. His black car also had white paint on its front bumper, the same color as the victim's car.</description>

      <title>Weed @ the combine</title>
      <description>well these guys admitted it at least before it got leaked to the press &amp; BTW why do they make a big deal out of this....YET when a player scores low on the wonderlic test or he doesn't do so well @ the combine.....it's not so much a big deal?

Pro Football Weekly report that three top prospects -- Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson, Clemson DE Gaines Adams and Louisville DT Amobi Okoye -- have admitted using marijuana strikes me as the kind of thing that has the potential to be overblown. I'm guessing the main difference between the players who tell their prospective employers they have smoked pot and the players who tell their prospective employers they haven't smoked pot is honesty. 
Of course, the NFL tests for marijuana, and players who test positive multiple times can be suspended or even banned (just ask Ricky Williams). So NFL teams have every reason to be cautious about players who admit using drugs. They just shouldn't allow that caution to let them pass up on a potentially great player.
The Pro Football Weekly report says, "Such admissions are viewed indifferently by many teams' decision-makers who do not consider marijuana experimentation to be abnormal." That sounds like the right approach to me.</description>

      <title>NFL Draft Analysis: The RBs</title>
      <description>Last year's crop of running backs contained only two truly elite prospects, Adrian 'Rookie of the Year' Peterson and Marshawn 'It don't get no better than solid' Lynch.  This year's class is much, much deeper, with most of the top prospects juniors.  

So, start day-dreaming about a few of these top-notch tailbacks dropping below the first couple of rounds, because it's going to happen.</description>
