Well it's a good thing the NBA doesn't give two rats asses about marijuana use and its players. I wonder if the NCAA will see an early exodus to the NBA based on these known variables
The NCAA is reducing the threshold for a positive result for marijuana, meaning that student athletes who smoke pot are more likely to be caught. At the same time, however, it is recommending reducing the penalty for those testing positive for marijuana.
The testing threshold will drop from 15 nanograms per milliliter of blood to five nanograms (the same standard that is considered per se evidence of impairment under Washington state’s new marijuana DUID law) in order to “more accurately identify pot smoking among student athletes,” the group’s Committee on Competitive Safeguards and Medical Aspects of Sport announced Friday.
