Nevertheless, hope he gets his head screwed on straight. He really needs to, or else he'll be forfeiting large amounts of $$$ come draft day 2009.

Quote: Brian Kelly on Terrill Byrd

Brian Kelly said today the athletic department is in the process of investigating the incident that resulted in All-American defensive tackle Terrill Byrd being cited for marijuana use.

“He was never arrested,” Kelly said. “He was issued a ticket. It was a matter where there was marijuana smoke, there was the presence of the smell of marijuana coming from his room. You’re going to be ticketed for that whether you’re responsible for that or not.

“From our standpoint we’re going to investigate that matter a little more closely. We have a lot of tools at our disposal and we’re going to use them all. All I’m saying is that we’ve got some work to do to try to put everything together.”

According to court documents, Byrd, a junior from Colerain High School, was caught smoking marijuana at his residence in the 2800 block of Bearcat Way at 11 p.m. on March 5.

On Saturday, March 15, he paid a $65 dollar fine and $90 in costs.

Kelly said no disciplinary action has been taken with regard to Byrd pending the outcome of the school’s investigation.

“We’ve got to handle some things internally,” he said. “If there’s further action to take we will make it known because of his profile.”
