Report: Virginia Tech's Jarell Eddie Will Play Against Wake Forest

Well, there you go. The "it wasn't mine" defense works for Eddie and he'll reportedly play Tuesday night against the Deacs. If everything we've read so far -- Eddie was arrested Tuesday for possession of weed that wasn't his and has subsequently passed a drug test -- is true, then I'm OK with the decision to play the kid tomorrow.

He sat out one game already and I think a one-game suspension is fine for the only crime he's guilty of so far: Doing something really stupid and causing a distraction at a time when this team doesn't need distractions. If this thing turns out to be more nefarious, then deal with it then. For now, Eddie is innocent until proven guilty.
