SEC Extra Points: Should There Be a Uniform Substance Abuse Policy?

The SEC will hold its annual spring meetings from May 31-June 3 in Destin, Florida, and while satellite camps will likely dominate headlines (after all, what offseason would be complete without them?), other legislative items like long-term player health, transfer restrictions and avenues of legal compensation will certainly be on the docket.

What about a conference-wide substance abuse policy? I've been asked about it on virtually every radio appearance this week, and the recent marijuana-related arrests at Alabama, Auburn, Georgia and other schools seem to have piqued the interest of the general public.

Don't count on it being a factor in Destin, though.
