Oregon Ducks Cliff Harris and Darron Thomas Caught Going 118 MPH and Smoking Weed

Oregon Ducks quarterback Darron Thomas should probably think long and hard the next he gets into a car with a teammate behind the wheel.
Thanks to some sleuthing by Portland’s KATU news team, it was revealed yesterday that Thomas was sitting in the passenger seat next to Oregon’s star cornerback, Cliff Harris, when he was pulled over for speeding back in June. This marks the third time since 2008 that the Ducks’ captain has been a passenger in the car of a teammate when it was pulled over by the authorities.
Harris was eventually charged with speeding in excess of 100 MPH (note in the video that the cop has to go 141 MPH just to catch up with them).
However, according to this news report, the real scandal in all this is the fact that the cops smelled marijuana in the car, and Cliff Harris confesses that they “just smoked it all.”
I don’t know about you, but I am shocked and appalled to learn that college kids are smoking pot. Shocked and appalled.

  • Thomas was caught with Masoli last year with weed as well. Chip Kelly will feign ignorance, of course.

    • @dcmfox Yes, they are. Pac 12 guy so I've lived their horrifying offenses shredding everyone in sight. How about Miami going down to the NCAA? Yikes.

  • How nice of the cops to let them get away with wreckless driving while not carrying a license. These must be some of those racist cops we keep hearing the liberals whining about.

  • It started when it was pitch black then all the sudden the sun is up? Did the cop give him some time to sober up before he did the field sobriety tests?

  • Oregon cops are pretty cool. Out here they'd take the car and make everybody walk home.

  • So, how old is he, is he a young-adult?
    I hope we are all glad that these two responsible young-adults did not consume any alcohol.

    Any links for internet live streams of them playing?

    How is this guy in game? Performance etc?

    Thinking about the multiple gold medal winner swimmer, he smokes weed and out performes all the competition, was it not some cereal producer (Kellhogs?) that got in trouble "slandering his name"?

    Any way, ! am glad no one got hurt, one sees so much bad shit o More..

    • @Blomsterkungen
      The Ducks played for the national championship last year against Auburn, which they lost on on a last second field goal.

      Darren Thomas was one of the best quarterbacks in the country, and Cliff Harris is projected to be a first round draft pick after this next season.

      So....they are two of the best football players in the country.

  • Cops are very lenient when it comes to marijuana in Oregon compared to other states I've lived in. I'm moving back in December! About time...

  • If it is one thing we produce here in Oregon, it is weed smoking athletes always in trouble with the law
