I believe the first was marijuana.  He was with Dabbs of Greeneville when it happened, I do know that.

Dabbs was suspended till after the first of the new year for his role.  Gillespie only sat out three games. 

Dabbs also continued to play football.  No punishment there.  So he would have been late to basketball anyway, right?

 

Did Gillespie face any punishment with football it was D-B out?

If it was his first time I don’t care to play him but after this you can’t play him. I don’t see how he can be changed with DUI. I guess the only way is that push button ignition.

Tennessee is one of many states that can charge you with a DUI if you have physical control of a motor vehicle. (Factors that play in to physical control include: where the driver is in relation to the vehicle; the location of the vehicle’s key; whether the engine is running or not; the driver’s ability to move or operate the vehicle (if the driver was not intoxicated); and the extent to which the vehicle was capable of being operated.) The state has to prove that the person had the potential to drive the car when they are caught.  (Keys in pocket and with one push of a button to start the car is the problem.  If he didn't have keys on him or was asleep in the back when they got there then it would be hard to press charges).

No, they were already out in football when this occurred I believe.

Found his mon on Facebook.  She posted that indeed he was not allowed to travel with the team and an appeal had been made to the principal, AD and school board.  They are driving down tomorrow.  Guess there's a possibility that if they win an appeal and they win tomorrow, maybe he could play the semifinal?  Not sure how an appeal like that could even work out.

I’ll be surprised if the school board and administration agree to let him play. He’s already been given a second chance. I don’t see them giving him another. It’s unfortunate. Biggest game of the season 4 days away and he makes a bad decision that may cost his team another championship. Gotta be smarter than that.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
