I'll bet nothing comes from it. I could see Tatum being kicked off because he's had issues in the past.

Apparently the car didn't belong to any of the 4 players. Sounds like the same could be said about the drugs and the gun. Who knows what will happen to them, but I have to believe Bruce Pearl will suspend them, or the university will suspend them until the facts come out.
UT has very tough games against Charlotte and Kansas this week. Both could be losses without those players, and KU probably will be with them.

I see a suspension for most of the guys. None of the charges are felonies, so it's really not too serious. Very stupid, but not too serious according to the law.

The concealed weapon charge, especially if the serial number is altered would be a felony. However, I believe they would have to prove the gun belonged to one of the players, or they knowingly possessed it. The rental car thing might bail them out here. For the current time though, it looks like they will be suspended for at least the next game, which is a possible loss anyway.
