Virginia Tech athletic director Jim Weaver said Monday that reserve forward Jarell Eddie, who was charged with marijuana possession last week, is cleared to play tonight at Wake Forest.
Eddie did not play in Saturday's loss at Virginia. Coach Seth Greenberg said both Saturday and Sunday that it was a "coach's decision," and did not use the word "suspension."
But Weaver said Greenberg told him Monday that Greenberg did indeed give Eddie a one-game suspension for the UVa game.
"Until this thing plays out, nothing else will be done," Weaver said. "I would assume that he would play [tonight]; that's Seth's decision. ... We suspended him already for a game.
"We have taken appropriate action to this point in time."
Virginia Tech basketball player Jarell Eddie has been charged with possession of marijuana, according to court records. The freshman reserve forward is due to appear in Montgomery County General District Court in Blacksburg on April 21.
Blacksburg police confirmed the charge but did not provide further details Sunday. The offense date was Tuesday, and Eddie was charged Wednesday. Eddie did play in Tech's win over Maryland on Tuesday night.

It's not even the start of spring practice but I'm already chomping at the bit for start of football season which is exactly 200 days away. VT has just gotten two big V-day gifts in Shane Beamer coming back home as well as the schedule coming out. I personally love the schedule and it's relieving to not have an early tough out of conference game this year for this young Tyrod-less squad.

Inspired by Joe's post about Logan Thomas, I expounded on his first-year QB stats. However, I did mine a little differently and went with each QB's first year as the primary starter. The arbitrary number I set for this was starting 75 percent of the Hokies' games. Then, I grabbed the stats for every first-year starter under Frank Beamer.
This doesn't include Beamer's first starting quarterback in 1987, Erik Chapman, who started the previous season.
