Freeze is in a tough spot.
If you sit him, the commentators spend the whole game taking about RN being out and why he's out. It will be beat in to the ground and do absolutely no good for Nkemdiche. Freeze gets a thumbs-up for doing the right thing, but in the end it makes absolutely no difference to anyone.
If you let him play, you aren't teaching him a lesson. Guess what - the kid is going to the NFL after this and isn't going to learn anyway. The time frame to mold and develop the kid is over. Freeze will be criticized for letting him play . Everyone will forget about it in a week (except the OSU fans when he absolutely destroys their O Line).
In the end, the kid smoked some pot and made a mistake. Hundreds and hundreds of other NCAA athletes do this and simply don't get caught. I'm not defending him - I think he's a moron.
I don't envy Freeze having to make this decision.
I hope he suits up and I hope he plays like a beast.
Then I hope he goes to the NFL and Freeze can finally stop dealing with the headache that he and his brother have become.
