Just Say No

I don't think I've ever brought up this issue. I'm not sure why, as I have a problem with it. Why on earth did NC State hire CJ Hunters as an assistant strength coach?

The guy was kicked off the US Olympic team just before the 2000 Olympics after failing four drug tests. Four! So, yeah, the guy is huge and was a world class shot putter, so I'm sure he knows how to get strong. Unfortunately, like many world-class shot putters, it seems that his routine involves syringes.

Is that who you want teaching your college athletes?

Hunter claims he's innocent, which is laughable, but does claim that he personally injected his then-wife, Marion Jones with steroids. OK, so he claims not to have used them himself, but he had no problem giving them to his wife. Why would anyone believe he would have a problem shooting up college football players?

NC State doesn't need CJ Hunter.
