I wonder if the carrier tampered with the samples. Seems very odd

Not just odd, but for a substance that isn't even beneficial to abuse. Either way the fact that the NCAA is coming down on 3 guys who bust their tails and don't try to manipulate the system, makes me angry. I can understand if it's THC or a steroid, but come on this is a joke. I would go as far as saying someone at the NCAA office has Clemson as a target. Wouldn't surprise me. I'm calling it a hat job. Clemson faithful need to back these boys.

I thought the same thing! Or someone needs a story because it’s been a quiet lead up to the games this year. Ratings hunting. Definitely feels like a hit job. If any Clemson alum or donor has any pull anywhere they need too use it here!!

Usually the samples have a seal over the lid with the person's initials and date. If the sample is opened, it wouldn't be tested or at least shouldn't. Let's hope the 2nd test is clean.

Keep this between us, but many years ago somebody in the Army involved with these kinds of tests told me, it was very easy to swap samples. The initials on the top of the sample were unreadable and paraffin wax was placed on it anyway. Fessing up for a friend.

So we had 3 to come up positive. Of all the college football players how many were there? Why are we the only ones publicized?

It was a trace amount....

Could be simple lab error
Could be that the instrument is not really great for measuring those low amounts.
Could be a number of issues. Happens all the time when evaluating lab data and not because of any kind of conspiracy.
Hoping sample B comes back clean which would not surprise me if the first sample only showed a trace amount.
I have seen a sample and it's associated duplicate sample be orders of magnitude different.
Curious if they will be using a different lab.

Instruments can give faulty readings...

Few weeks ago I was sent for a lung scan with chemicals to trace the blood flow. When they drew the blood and tested it, it showed I was on stage 4 kidney failure. Scared me to death. They did this 2 times and was sent immediately to ER. Was being prepped for surgery and the surgeon came in and said everything was fine and wanted to know why I was sent. Told him the story and he said it was probably a malfunction of the equipment. It was. The hospital then refunded all money back after their investigation showed it was their equipment that caused it. So equipment can screw things up

I’ve had a similar experience with a false lab result. Indicated I was in a serious situation when it turned out everything was absolutely fine on the retest. How that’s the case here.

The NCAA whose integrity is constantly questioned. Whatever happened to Texas A&M this year. Jimbo was caught breaking rules open and shut. What happened? Nothing, Texas A&M donors have too much money. The NCAA is in Indiana, Notre Dame is in Indiana. My guess is this was not done to target specific players but to tarnish the program. And yes there is no discernible reason that any player would use that substance in such small quantities where the only thing that could happen would be punishment. This is definitely fishy and an investigation should be done on the NCAA and their shady practices in several arenas.
