Hawks just assume all drugs are ok.

I went to school with him and he is does a lot for Oskaloosa. Sounds like he made a dumb mistake. Say what you will he is a good representative to Iowa. Posted on his facebook he would be working out at the community stadium anyone in 9th grade and up is welcome to come play football.

A quick story, I ran into him a couple months ago in Oskaloosa and caught up a little bit. I asked him about the benefit for a local child with cancer and his involvement. He informed me that one of his sponsors, someone that handles his signatures said he could not sign anything for the charity event. He said that if they were going to ban him from helping out kids with cancer that he didn't want anything to do with them, and that was the end of it. Cut it either way, he is a die hard hawk, but is also a wonderful ambassador to the state.

/my 2 cents.

Chalk this up to a dumb mistake. Really dumb.

Judging by talking to people who know him fairly well, he seems like a good guy. Except for the whole hok thing.

If you're an NFL player you check the banned substance list before you put anything in your body...plain and simple

My thoughts exactly. Why is everyone so quick to buy his story? This is the new way to combat failed drug tests. Make an immediate statement that it was adderall. Not sure I am buying it.

If on purpose, then it is not a mistake. Players are told over and over to get EVERYTHING cleared through the team doc. Even "nice" guys dope.

Fixed it for you.

Are bath salts on the list? I'm sure he was lined up for a number of speaking engagements during that time. :)

Yep. I am from Osky originally, very close connections to his family and friends and this is not too surprising. I don't buy the anxiety thing at all. You get drafted to the #1 media market in the US if not the world, deal with super bowl media days, play in front of millions of people in the super bowl, do media after the super bowl, and a month after all this you then develop anxiety for public speaking?

3 years at Iowa this never came up? A full NFL season and this never comes up to address with the team dr? A month after the super bowl and suddenly he has anxiety issues, and he never bothered to clear it with his team dr's, plus loses his appeal with the NFL on it?

Either he wasn't taking what he claims he was taking (and honestly, we only have his statement to work from, the NFL doesn't talk, and when was the last time a juicer told the truth) or he just is an idiot that didn't clear something important with the team dr. Take your pick. Just because you do a lot for others doesn't mean you aren't a juicer, it just means others are more likely to enable you.

At IA-ISU game I sat next to the parents of one of his high school teammates when Sash was a freshman. The guy said "It will be a miracle if Tyler makes it through 4 years at Iowa without a suspension."

I guess he was close, but still wrong.

Robert Gallery was a big "Adderall" user, too.

I don't have a link currently but it's all over twitter.
