The biggest fake narrative on this story is the "student provided to player" version the Administration (Deep State) is putting out. Also, have to follow the $$ on good ole Benny Boy, let's just see how he was paid. 4 Quote

Yet you’re the one saying calling for sanctions is laughable even though the player has said this illegal PED was used “throughout the locker room. So, the fact you would characterize this situation as something to laugh off, is actually the “quite telling” opinion. I never said it was in the basement of the Fargodome; i’m assuming it would be much easier for them to store these large quantities of drugs in the hopper bins over by the livestock barns. Quote
Popular Post Siouxperfan7 Posted February 1, 2019 Popular Post Posted February 1, 2019 For all Bison fans out there who are saying that we are blowing this out or proportion....congrats. You have [played right into our game. Most fans will defend their team and program when it is being attacked. But given the success of the NDSU football program recently, Bison fans will defend their program to the death if there is even a miniscule chance the legacy will be at any way tarnished. My advise to Bison fans, relax. Your program is getting some flack from likely an isolated incident. Try not to take it so personally. We are just a rival school giving you some crap about an issue. 7 Quote

Sure is isolated to this program. Not many other programs in the country have coaches distributing PEDs to players. Quote

If you don't know the answers to the following questions, you have no basis for any conclusion: What was the supplement? Exactly who was "distributing" it to players? Which players actually took this supplement, whatever it was? How often did the players use this substance? What performance benefits might a player actually be expected to receive from this substance (why is it banned)? I may have missed it, but don't see the answer to any of these questions anywhere in this thread. Quote

I may have missed it, but don't see the answer to any of these questions anywhere in this thread. I tried to answer the last one. It’s fact that certain players or positions, Kramer has work out twice daily in off season. I would imagine a pre workout would be very beneficial in that situation. NDSU May have some explaining to do as their distribution story seems to not align with the player. If it was in fact anything but a student athlete, your AD just lied to everyone which will make all of this much worse. What else is he trying to cover up?? One player used it once and got caught. Media and staff didn’t report on it at the time either so no one really knows the answers to the other questions. Quote

You’re trying to split hairs in an attempt to hopefully make it sound less serious, but to the NCAA and it’s rules, it doesn’t matter. Did you read Kolpack’s article? We know a member of the staff was distributing it to the players, as Lori told us. We don’t know which players, however we know she said it was used throughout the locker room. Hopefully this clears up your confusion. 1 Quote

Obviously, if NDSU staff did give the player the supplement, or if more players are involved, that's a problem. But we don't know that that's what happened, and until you do you're just engaging in wishful thinking about a rival. You want this to be true. But the evidence just isn't there. Quote

I fail to see their incentive to lie and make up a story about a staff member, and also make up a story about prevalent use throughout the locker room. Quote

SlowHand Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 4 hours ago, Mama Sue said: I think we are all waiting for NDJuice U AD and admin staff to own up to this and handle it....the continued denial and silence puts even more tarnish on those trophies... in nursing this is how an error is handled: nurse, who has completed a competency (so she has knowledge, important fact here too) makes a very serious error (death or disability). She is licensed in her state... hospital determines course (moved out of specialty area, mandatory class about medication administration, and 3 day suspension). This is then reported to the state board of nursing since it would be teviewed by them anyway. MESSAGE: We admit our employee made an error and we will manage AND monitor his/her future actions. I don’t see anything like that here.... my grandson says to his sister: Man up, Laura. Man up, NDJuice U!!! If you are a nurse you should know better than what you posted. Hospital administration will never admit a employee made a "error" causing death. It opens them up to liability. If you are a nurse, you are certainly not one involved in legal or administrative policies. Quote

Robbins has more to lose and gain. His mother mentioned he wanted to get to the NFL. As year suspension as a senior all but eliminates his chances of that happening. He is personally responsible for what he ingests. I doubt someone mixed a caffeine supplement and forced it down his throat. Granted, someone at NDSU more than likely told him it was ok to take "Clean Victory" as a pre-workout supplement. It is ok to use if mixed appropriately. Doubling up on it was probably not discussed. When all else fails, read the directions. I dont blame UND fans for jumping on this and having some fun. If the shoe was on the other foot I am sure the roles would be reversed. Bad deal for Robbins, but personal responsibility is important here. Quote

By the logic I’m seeing on this board by some, that should have been enough of a smoking gun to investigate the entire University and athletic department for lack of institutional control. Quote
