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,

"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."

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."

He's sort of been my idol. 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."
