AGGIE RECEIVER ARRESTED FOR MARIJUANA POSSESSION

  

Texas A&M athletics officials say receiver Speedy Noil has been suspended from the football team after he was charged with drug possession.

Noil, a junior from New Orleans, turned himself in to College Station police, posted a $2,000 bond Tuesday and was released. He's charged with possession of less than two ounces of marijuana, a misdemeanor.

Noil's arrest stemmed from a complaint Friday about loud noise from his apartment. Officers said they smelled marijuana and when he refused to allow them inside, they obtained a warrant and found the drugs.

Noil was suspended before the Aggies’ bowl game last year and missed the Aggies' 2016 season opener. He had 21 catches for 325 yards and two touchdowns this year.
