Rising junior P.J. Hairston, basketball player at UNC, got caught with weed on Wednesday night. During a traffic stop, Hairston was driving a vehicle that contained about a half-ounce of marijuana. But wait, there is more!
After searching the area around the traffic stop, officers found a gun outside the traffic stop area, suggesting that the gun was thrown out the window moments before the stop. The gun is currently being examined to see if it can be traced to the vehicle. Oh, by the way, Hairston did have a passenger in the car.
This brings me to the point of the stupidity that was displayed in this situation. If your Hairston, you have to be smarter. You are a college athlete who gets a free education at one of the best schools in the country. You get to play under the bright lights. You receive so many perks and benefits (including attention from the opposite sex). You have a chance to make the NBA and make millions of dollars playing a freakin sport. How can you let this happen? If its your gun and weed, then you have some serious problems (the gun concerns me the most). If it was your friend's, then you still are at fault .You have to be smarter about who you let around you. With this screw-up, Hairston can't just worry about his scholarship and NBA prospects, he has to worry about potential jail time. When will they learn?
