According to authorities, officers stopped a vehicle they say was traveling more than 110 miles per hour and did not have a visible license plate. During the stop, officers reported smelling marijuana, which led to a search of the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Police say that search uncovered marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Core was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.<\/p>\n

Core bonded out later that same day after posting a $1,000 bond.<\/p>\n

Ole Miss is scheduled to face Georgia in the Sugar Bowl on New Year\u2019s Day in New Orleans.<\/p>\n
