Per Hubbs, Janzen Dismissed From Team

We returned 2 good players on defense. We just lost one of them. I'd say it is pretty big.

 

From a talent standpoint, it's big.

 

Devastate.

Did we ever hear/learn why he missed time in the Spring other than "personal" issues?

 

One day, there was a post that popped up on TOOS for about 3 minutes. It was quickly deleted. It said that Janzen had been in a treatment facility in west knoxville all spring, except for his meetings with coaches. Anyone know if there is any truth to that?

 

That's what I would hope. Waggner started the mock game tonight at safety. Teague and Coleman at corner...man I hope someone else steps up back there.

 

You don’t generally hear of people going into treatment for Pot but I was talking to someone yesterday who said it happens. Some people get addicted and require treatment. Apparently he is one of them.

 

I know it really happens, but I can't help but think of that scene from Half Baked

 

A day later, this still sucks.

Hard to feel sorry for Jackson though considering how many chances he apparently had... but man. Bummer.

 

I seem to remember treatment being part of UT athletics substance abuse plan.

 

VolInAz is pretty adamant that this wasn't pot.

 

I'll never understand the power of addiction, I guess.

 

Could you ask him what his blog is? I forgot, and I'd like to get in touch with him.
