What do \ Former USC running back George Rogers, the National Football League's leading rusher and 1981 Rookie of the Year, allegedly told federal investigators he bought $10,000 worth of cocaine during his rookie season with the New Orleans Saints, ' K&S& i sS i? "I was surprised. I was sort of disappointed. I didn't think he was that type of person-the type of person who would do that-because of the type image he portrayed while he was here. It seems like they (the press) have centered on this one thing and it seems like there is more going on than that." Sandy Harden early childhood education senior "No, I'm not disappointed. I just think he's stupid for getting caught and writing checks. He's got all that money. I'd like to ask him why he used, checks. The only place it's going to hurt him is here because of how high Carolina had placed him, but I guess it's going to blow over soon."

But it's a lot of money to have at one time and you have to spend it on something. I hate that they (the press) are picking him out singularly. They (the press) have really picked on him instead of (Dave) Wilson. (Rogers' teammate, also involved in the controversy). You expect an athlete to be in shape and not doing drugs." David Hodges marketing and management senior "I'm not surprised. I have always hppn siisrtppf ahnnt what Prp^irlpnt Holderman says and when he said George was one of the finest young men to have ever walk through this campus I suspected he was just chewing his words and spitting them out. Why should George be any different than anybody else? In college, he got as much praise as the pros but not the amount of money."
