This isn’t the first time Jones has been in the box. He was arrested in October for driving with a suspended sentence, and even missed a game as a result. Oregon tends to be a bit harsher with its in-school discipline than other colleges, so look out for real measures to be taken. For our part, I think we can all agree that it is simply not right to give a guy a hard time for having weed on his property. One point for Jones — they did throw a contempt-of-court charge on top of the drug thing, apparently a failure-to-appear ticket.
When he’s not googling “Tigers in stripes” and “near-blind Cougars,” Matt Taibbi writes for Rolling Stone. He can be reached at
