A reserve Texas Tech defensive back was arrested by federal agents early Thursday and charged with dealing cocaine.

Junior De'Shon Sanders, arrested in downtown Lubbock at 1:30 a.m. Thursday by agents of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, has been charged with felony possession with intent to distribute in excess of 50 grams of cocaine, DEA public affairs spokesman David Ausiello said Thursday.

Sanders is being held in Lubbock County jail, according to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Texas Tech associate athletic director Chris Cook confirmed that Sanders is a housemate of All-American receiver Michael Crabtree and junior defensive end Brandon Sesay. Neither Crabtree nor Sesay has been implicated in the investigation of Sanders, a law enforcement official with knowledge of the case said.

However, the official said, both players were in the apartment when DEA agents searched Sanders' room in the middle of the night, following his arrest.

The 22-year-old Sanders, of Hobbs, N.M., is a transfer from City College of San Francisco. He has appeared in all 12 games for the Red Raiders and made four tackles.

[cool cat]

tsk tsk

[BUMP]

LOL it was well known that his roommate was the biggest drug dealer here in the city. Crabtree is clean though

[tonylongoriafan]

CRABTREE's on drugs...every dealer i've ever known also uses...and so did all of their friends, especially the ones they lived with...just sayin'

[Blake]

if you read up on Crabtree, where he's come from and how he takes care of himself, you'd probably know that it's verrry unlikely that he did any coke.

Now I can't speak for his roommate Sesay, nor can I say that there's no way that Crab didn't know about his roommate dealing drugs, but I highly doubt that Crab was getting coked up.

[dickface]

HAHA Crabtree's a cokehead!

knowing what I do about Crab, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt about not doing coke. Hell, the dude made his way out of Dallas Carter and keeps his body in peak physical condition.

and I think if he were going to be in trouble for not turning in his roommate, he'd be sitting in a jail cell right about now.

right and Roy Tarpley played for the Dallas Mavericks and virtually half of all current and former Dallas Cowboys have done drugs, so yeah, I guess you have a great point.

[cash459]

Just goes to show you that Tech is following the steps that are required of big name programs.....they already had an academic scandal a while back, now drug charges...id say theyre right on track :lol

So now there's no denying Tech is moving up :lol

Well if Crabtree would stop snorting so much cocaine nobody would make the comparisons.

Oh my God, 50 grams of coke!!! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No.

Now, if he had been busted with weed or been out drinking at 4a.... :lol

50 grams of coke isn't shit. That's like maybe $2,000 in street value. I'm sure the Detroit Lions are already sliding Crabtree much more than that under the table before they draft him next April for this to even be news.

But it's still pretty funny that this supposed big time coke dealer that everyone knew was dealing had less than two ounces. Less than two zones in a fucking college town? If he was trying to keep it low profile by having less coke on hand then that makes this bust that much more hilarious. Tech can't even sell drugs right.

b/c thats something to be proud of :rolleyes

no kidding.

I can think of several longhorns that can do drugs the right way.

Ricky and Cedric come to mind.......

what Tech athletes do know how to do is study. They lead the Big XII in graduation rate.......but I'm sure a longhorn blowhard like JT knew that already.

You don't snitch, that's common knowledge. Even if it's your biggest enemy, you don't snitch.

You're really going to fault the guy for trying to earn extra bread in this shitty economy? Shit I'd probably be selling coke too if it wouldn't cost about $800 to get a set up.

[Blake]

yes


Shit I'd probably be selling coke too if it wouldn't cost about $800 to get a set up.

why am I not surprised

[J.T.]

Oh, please. Like you've never committed a felony or two in your life.

Well, Sanders is an idiot first of all. but for Crabtree to not try to distance himself from that, is ridiculous too. Crabtree has millions waiting for him in the NFL...but now people are going to be grilling him about this for a long time & could affect his stock.

[samikeyp]

You don't snitch, that's common knowledge. Even if it's your biggest enemy, you don't snitch.

If it could possibly affect your future in the NFL, the hell you don't.

That being said, I seriously doubt this will stop anyone from drafting him. If there were some concrete evidence that Crabtree were involved then maybe but otherwise he shouldn't be affected.

[Blake]

yeah, you pretty much have to shoot yourself in the leg for a team to not want you.

Yeah, like that would ever happen.
