Character of any organization extends from the top down... just one of the reasons, as a brief aside, why I despise the local rag.
In this case, the band of thugs Chip Kelly puts together and coddles is a case in point.
A while back, one of his thugs decked a Boise State player, after the game, something that would have seen you or me in prison. He's now in the NFL when, instead, he should be in prison.
A star QB engages in the Ducks time-honored tradition of burglary and trafficking in stolen goods.
Now? 118 MPH and pot.... for the second time... IN TWO MONTHS.
And let's see... driving while suspended, no reckless driving, the smell of pot, and no search of the car.... and no arrest.
Nahhhhh.... no special treatment THERE, right?
Some programs are just stuck on stupid. ANd so are some state patrolmen.
Trooper to 118 mph Cliff Harris: 'Who’s got the marijuana?'
Players with cars. Players with money. Players recruited illegally. Players committing felony assault. Players suspended for about 10 minutes.
NEAR ALBANY, Ore. – Unedited dashboard camera footage from an Oregon State Police patrol car acquired by KATU News shows a trooper scolding Oregon Ducks stars Cliff Harris and Darron Thomas after pulling them over at 4:30 a.m. on a Sunday morning in June.
The following incident unfolded over an hour and two minutes.
Harris was ticketed for going 118mph in a 2011 Nissan Altima and driving while suspended. His family paid the fine, which was over $1,600. The car had been rented by a University of Oregon employee.
Telemetry recorded on the video footage shows the OSP trooper, David Stallsworth, pushing his patrol car to 141 miles per hour to catch the speeding Altima near Albany. Once his blue and red lights are activated, the Altima quickly pulls over.

Stallsworth then approaches the car with a flashlight, tells the men in the car they are being recorded and asks to see the hands of all those inside.
Harris and the other guys will likely have to run 5 extra laps. They should be expelled.
The Oregon Ducks. You've got to love these guys.
If you need a prison team.
