Between Parkland and Trier this week, every national administrative organization that starts with N and ends in A is dead to me.

The NCAA is becoming as corrupt as Trump, and I don't give a damn if Machina or whoever else reports the "politics" in this post. Timing dude.

By the NCAA's ass backwards rules, they'll find a way to sit him the rest of the season.

Everyone knows PED's don't directly enhance performance for months, and he had to sit that long last year. We shoud go UNC and say a class on taking PED's are offered as core curriculum at Arizona to all students. It's just an institutional decision.

Just watched Outside the Lines on ESPN and for their "Villain of the Week" segment Adnan Virk went with Trier.

Joked about how somebody manages to fail two drug tests in two years and the rest of the crew piled on.

It has to be very easy to tell from the test results this is residual from the 2016 ingestion or a second one. I really doubt Arizona would appeal a second ingestion. That leaves the residual, which isn't Trier's fault.

Sad to see uneducated people get after him.

Yeah, seems very unlikely that it would be a new ingestion if the amount reported is true considering how long it takes to get out of your body.

And considering that they also have several clean tests in between. Wouldn't they have a test at some point that would show a higher amount indicative of recent usage?
To go from zero to 6 grains of salt in 10 Olympic sized swimming pools should prove that this is a remnant from 2016 and not new ingestion.

This. Allonzo was cleared, as agreed, when his numbers reached below a specified level. This test completely renegs. It isn't a matter of "rules are rules." It's pure ill-will, and an aggressive bending of facts to disqualify a player.

That's pathetic but sadly inline with what the NCAA does. They don't actually care about the student athletes at all and it shows repeatedly.

I'm not a lawyer, but at somepoint (i.e. today) I think you would sue to get an emergency injunction on this if the NCAA does not make a decision by 5:00pm EST.

If it's true they cleared him with a trace amount, then suspended him for a trace amount that was left over from the first run, I'd think that is a legit strategy.

It's capricious and makes the student-athlete and object of slander and jeopardizes his future. This is some pretty aggressive shit.

If the amount in the test was less than the threshold given to clear him last year, fuck that shit. Heeke, Arizona and Trier's team should sue the living fucking shit out of the NCAA

The biggest hook is the extent to which the NCAA is internally inconsistent with their decisionmaking. Selective enforcement to target and individual is always a concern.

If he actually had a lower level than the one at which he was previously cleared and it is just failure to eliminate it, the NCAA's process for him has been differently enforced.

If nothing else, Trier's lawyer likely wants to drive the narrative and place the NCAA in the limelight. I would be surprised if the NCAA wants to dig in on this particular issue.

The biggest danger is that no one cares. The NCAA is very PR sensitive, and if this gets lost, Trier's college career could die in silence.

So he was cleared last year by the NCAA when the amount in his system reached a certain level. And now he he was suspended for an amount less than that certain level he was cleared at? Am I understanding that correctly??

It was a Friday and it was leaked Friday night. Miller wasnt happy. If he is, it would have happened now since its 5pm est. If so, awesome but still mad. But its a lesson learned that if he is, it will be super secret to throw Oregon off.

The logic is that the January 2018 testing revealed a trace of the banned substance, so they're treating it as a new occurrence, since it was found in a test subsequent to his post-appeal clearance in January 2017. Instead of relying on medical science and human reasoning, they're going by the book, where the rules say this is a banned substance -- and look! -- here it is in the player's body. Therefore, this circumstance is new and doesn't pertain to last season's appeal. Because the NCAA officials are in charge and they can do whatever the fuck they want. There are reasons why people involved in college sports hate the NCAA.

Phoenix radio is even bashing the NCAA for this. People care - the NCAA is a fucking joke right now. I believe they are trying to pre-save face by going overboard on what little they have any attention to right now.

The logic is that the January 2018 testing revealed a trace of the banned substance, so they're treating it as a new occurrence, since it was found in a test subsequent to his post-appeal clearance in January 2017. Instead of relying on medical science and human reasoning, they're going by the book, where the rules say this is a banned substance -- and look! -- here it is in the player's body. Therefore, this circumstance is new and doesn't pertain to last season's appeal. Because the NCAA officials are in charge and they can do whatever the fuck they want. There are reasons why people involved in college sports hate the NCAA.

Hopefully the publicity only gets louder. That's the only thing the NCAA actually might really care about.

For the record, I'm explicitly stating fairness to the student-athlete is not part of the NCAA equation.
