Hmmmm. We're not so naïve as to suggest that the NCAA is drug-free? How about some of the foreign athletes who have matriculated (are matriculating) and their track "records" without even starting on our citizen participants? Otherwise, what is the purpose for NCAA drug testing. Hopefully to try and deter the athlete, alas, we also know how difficult it is to "catch the culprits"!
It's a filter down system. May I be so bold as to suggest the high schools are even caught up in this whole chase your tail game. We're in a pill-popping, needle-sticking culture and time.
