    Any flames to go along with smoke about Big Softie sitting out??

    Is there any validity to the rumor floating that Big Softie will be sitting via NCAA investigation? I may have to adjust my winS prediction for them down to 5.

    I'm hearing he won't play but it will be due to soreness is his injured leg...gotta protect that draft stock and not embarrass the kid if you're ole miss. Surely they have the kids' best interest at heart, but they have a lot invested to not pay off.

    Yes. I believe C34 has been alluding to this from his sources for months now. Similar to the way I've been hearing from My source on the Paidwell camp that he may take a similar "play not to get hurt and drop draft stock" Approach this teR.

    I still think the NCAA is keeping a close eye on that program.

    I wonder if this is "injury" related, or "investigation" related.

    Unless they're out for Bama, it's a non-issue. Who cares if they're out vs UT Martin?

    If he's out, it's probably going to be until there is a ruling made by the NCAA. So, if this drags on they are not going to risk playing him against Bama if it goes on that long.

    Yeah, if that's the case, this could have some legs. We are talking about "big Softie" here, so he could have an in-grown toe nail that's keeping him out***

    Why not play him. They will lose without him. Forfeit a possible win or lose straight up. Same result.

    Because at some point the NCAA will do something- contrary to many of our fans popular beliefs. Better to lose one guy than have the while house come down.

    They have 7 1st round draft picks and are loaded- so losing him wouldnt hurt
