The Tennessee Volunteers football program is getting back on track in a big way. In the span of four weeks, No fewer than five Vols have racked up some sort of legal trouble.

Freshman receivers Gerald Jones and Ahmad Paige were cited for possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor…A week later, freshman running back Daryl Vereen was arrested and charged with public intoxication. Last weekend, junior offensive lineman Anthony Parker was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct.

The funny thing about it all (funny weird, not funny ha-ha) is that walk-on defensive back Vince Faison is the first to get suspended. Faison got himself a DUI this past weekend. The 26-year-old had spent the last eight years playing minor league baseball, most recently at Double-A Midland. Faison will be forced to sit the first two games as a punishment, which is only fair. If you can't learn how to drive drunk after eight years of pro ball, you don't deserve the privilege as an amateur. I'm pretty sure that's in the Bible somewhere.
