KCJJ Radio (1630 AM) is reporting that Iowa QB Arvell Nelson and Iowa WR James Cleveland were arrested for yesterday for drug possession. The Iowa program is a joke -- and instead of cleaning house they recently extended it for another year!

Wow, what are these guys thinking?? Sounds like it's marijuana for one and pills for the other. The pills would be a felony.

Do they have anyone there that can play that doesn't have some kind of record besides the vinyl kind one can scratch on a turntable??

Luckily Ferentz just got that one year extension. He is truly the right man for Iowa and the guy that can keep on leading this team. Their address, is that the low rent housing?

I'm sure people will jump on this thread pointing out the "glass house" theory, but with the way Iowa is heading, it won't even come close anymore.

I once had a hawk fan tell me Arvell Nelson will start ahead of Jake Christensen. He said he was better than Seneca! Yeah right, and now, it doesn't even look like he will be playing football.

Anyone think it's a coincidence that they run the "jailbreak screen" all the time?

The judge should take that into consideration when setting bail.

Anyone know what that brings the total to?

That is really a shame. Hopefully national media doesn't get a hold of this. Could be bad for the whole state.

Iowa hasn't had a QB better than Seneca in their history.

I think that marijuana and pills, if they are illegal would warrant dismissal from the team.

I would hope Chizik would do the same if it was one of our guys.

The pills are illegal since they resulted in one felony and two serious misdemeanor charges. But Anthony Bowman has been welcomed back with open arms, so who knows. Ferentz has completely lost control of the program anyway, so what difference does it make?

I hate EIU as much as anyone, but this is really sad.

It is obvious that these young kids have no leadership, goals, or direction.

Like it or not, it's becoming a blemish on the whole state...

None of our guys are getting in trouble. How could it be seen as a blemish on the whole state?

UNI took some questionable players with some troubled histories, but there's no way this reflects on us.

If anything, it helps us with in-state kids and who their parents want to send them to play for. It would be a pretty easy decision for me if I was a parent. I'd send him to the school where he was least likely to be arrested.
