A second-degree felony could be punishable by two to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.Formal charges had not yet been filed. Taylor remained in custody in the Bell County Jail.Deputies said they also found a live round of ammunition in the vehicle.According to the arrest report, deputies responded to a report of a large fight involving as many as 100 people at a pecan farm in Little River, a community about 40 miles north of Austin. Deputies also said they received a call from someone who had been at the fight and complained that a window on his vehicle had been broken. That caller turned out to be Taylor.While interviewing Taylor at a convenience store, deputies were told by other officers at the fight scene that Taylor had been involved and had threatened to return with a gun. Taylor was placed in handcuffs.Taylor told deputies he didn't have a gun and gave them permission to search his vehicle. Deputies reported finding the bullet and the backpack with the marijuana.One of Texas' most versatile players, Taylor scored 15 touchdowns last season, including a 30-yard scoring run in the Rose Bowl, which Texas won 41-38. The win gave Texas its first outright national championship since 1969.</div> It's Ricky all over again. But how dumb must you be to call the cops with that much Weed in your car. Not to mention allowing him to search the car.
You have to be f***ing retarded. Nice job Taylor, you could have made millions of dollars in about a year but instead you gotta be an idiot.

Some people don't know how much hash that is. That is a TON of weed. A TON!!!!!! You'd be high for WEEKS.
I'm wondering how he got so much weed in the first place. Who would entrust a good $50,000+ worth of weed to a college player?
lol. What a guy, 5 pounds could last me for a shit long time. I doubt this guy had a career in the NFL anyways.
what a clown, trying to make a few thousand in college dealing dope when he should have been preparing to make millions in the NFL

If he resold it at say $10-20 a gram (too expensive?), he'd make at least $25,000 estimated.That's damn good for a college student. lmao
Got this post from UEF, makes sense...<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (UEF)</div><div class='quotemain'>Just to keep you guys informed... That article just scratches the surface of what is going on...This is what happened...Taylor was hanging out at a party while outside his vehicle was vandalized... When he came out, he saw his car and then the fight started... Once things cooled down, Taylor called the police to inform them of the vandalization of his vehicle... The drugs were in a backpack in the back of his hatchback.. The problem is, the drugs were basically just lying out of the backpack... First thought, as if anybody would keep it just laying around like that... Also, Taylor didn't give them permission to search his vehicle, the officers saw the backpack and took it as probable cause and then searched the vehicle on that right alone... They found the backpack full of weed and the gun... Both of which Taylor claims were not his... Now... Taylor doesn't know who vandalized the vehicle, but it's beyond obvious they left the weed behind as well... Believe this, Taylor does not have the cash to purchase 5LB's of Marijuana...And yes, this is someones story who plays for UT and was at the party... (Not me)</div>Not sure if its true but hell its makes alot more sense than what the media is makin it seem like.
Yeah that does make a lot more sense than the news article, it's obvious someone set him up by stashing his car...
Yeah but they also said he threatened someone inside by saying he was going to go get a gun and if he had one in his car, it goes together.
