08:21 AM ET 10.29 | Coming off Idaho's bye week, Jason Gesser probably would have appreciated a little less drama in his first week as interim football coach. Quarterback Dominique Blackman has been kicked off the team following a failed drug test and tight end Taylor Elmo was suspended -- possibly for the rest of the year -- for posting an inflammatory message on Twitter in the wake of Robb Akey's firing, sources told The Spokesman-Review. Idaho athletic director Rob Spear confirmed Saturday night that Elmo was suspended, but Spear said the redshirt junior could return to the team this year. "It depends on how Taylor responds," Spear said. Elmo's tweet, which has since been deleted, criticized Spear for cutting ties with Akey last Sunday.

Now this is definitely in the "Who care" category.

But at least it ain't a hoops thread.

How about Boyzee Light?

Or will that offend Oklahoma State fans (assuming there are any educated enought to turn on a computer, log on to the inter-webz, and read a blog statement)?

My inner-sooner roots are showing, dad will be proud.......

I guess I say 'Wow' that if you express your own thoughts on your own media devices and accounts, you will be sanctioned (ie suspended) if your AD or coach does not like the comments. Talk about restraining freedom of speach, or having sensitive skin.

Hope JRM doesn't see this post. He is rather fond of showing us the OkieLite fans.
