Not guilty pleas have been entered for two?Notre Dame?football players and a third kicked off the team following their arrests?on misdemeanor charges of marijuana possession.Linebacker Tevon Coney, wide receiver Kevin Stepherson and safety Max Redfield, who was dismissed from the team, appeared in court Tuesday where a judge entered the pleas for them.Attorneys for running back Dexter Williams and cornerback Ashton White filed motions to waive initial hearings. A not guilty plea also was entered on Redfields behalf on a misdemeanor charge of carrying a handgun without a license.The five were arrested Aug. 19 after their car was stopped for speeding and an improper taillight. Police say they found two bags of marijuana.Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said Redfield, who was sent home early from the Fiesta Bowl last season for violating team rules, was kicked off the team because of the gun charge.Thats what caused the dismissal. And as an upperclassman, not really living up to the standards that I set, Kelly said.Kelly also said Tuesday that?Coney, Stepherson, Williams and White are practicing and will be ready to play in Sundays opener at Texas, but it remains unclear if the university will allow them to participate for the No. 10 Fighting Irish.We kind of work as if theyre going to play, Kelly said, and if something changes, the university will let us know.Coney, Stepherson and Williams were all listed as second-teamers on the Irishs depth chart, which was released Tuesday.Kelly said athletic department policy states that the first marijuana offense is an educational process and he has never suspended a player for a first offense. He said the school could still discipline the players, but there is no deadline for such a move.If something changes, the university will let us know, said Kelly, who noted that the players will be in a program that will include random drug tests. We think thats appropriate. We think thats an important part of the education process as well.ESPN Staff Writer Matt Fortuna and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

SEATTLE -- Chris Sale will make his first start in six days when the Chicago White Sox face the Seattle Mariners on Monday. This time, Sale will not be representing the White Sox, not the American League.The All-Star Game starter will be back on the mound to open the Seattle series, and the White Sox are going to need his A game if their offense continues to struggle like it did during the weekend sweep in Anaheim. Chicago (45-46) scored just one run in the series.Were not finding ways to manufacture runs or put the ball in play. Thats the frustrating part, White Sox third baseman Todd Frazier told the Chicago Tribune.The White Sox might find company in Seattles misery this week. The Mariners (46-46) scored just two runs over the final two games of the Houston series, and they have pretty much played their way out of contention in the American League West after a promising first two months of the season.Five runs in three games, thats not going to get it done, Mariners manager Scott Servais said after Sundays 8-1 loss to Houston. Weve got to do better than that.Seattles offense is only part of the problem as the Mariners pitching rotation continues to battle injuries. Scheduled Monday starter Wade LeBlanc (1-0, 3.52 ERRA) has done his part to fill in, but he is coming off a rough outing his last time out.dddddddddddd A converted reliever who pitched in Japan last year and was with Torontos Triple-A affiliate before the desperate Mariners acquired him in June, LeBlanc will be making his fourth start with Seattle.The Mariners could help him by playing better defense than they did on Sunday, when Seattle committed a season-high four errors in what Servais called the worst game we played all year.Third baseman Kyle Seager, who had two errors and now has nine since June 2, added, It definitely wasnt a good day.If the Mariners are going to reverse their fortunes and get back into the wild-card race, theyll have to start by scoring some runs on one of the games best pitchers. Sale is having a typical season, but he is coming off his worst start of the season. The Atlanta Braves hit three home runs off Sale in a July 8 win over the White Sox, during which he allowed eight runs off 10 hits.Pretty embarrassing, Sale said after that performance, according to MLB.com. Its about as bad as I possibly think in a while. ' ' '
