    Do we assume all the Bears are now on Big Softie watch?

    He's now sat out 4 games which was the latest time frame from their talking points. First he'd never miss a play. Then it was two games. After that came and went it was four games. So by Wednesday will the latest talking point be at 6 games?

    I don't think we see Softie in an OM uniform again.

    I agree with those saying he's done. Which is what this board has been saying all along. Even before the stepdad incident, I saw no evidence that he wanted to return to OM and play again, he has never cared about OM. It's just a "farm team" that he's passing through on his way to the bigs...

    It's definitely getting interesting. I was in the 4 games camp but you would think there would've been some official announcement before the 4th game. Do we think that he may have been cleared and he's just choosing not to play? And nothing has come out about it because it would reflect poorly on both OM and Tunsil?

    Wasn't there a thread on here when the "fight" went down that suggested it was all possibly blown out of proportion intentionally from the Tunsil camp as a sort of way to keep him from playing and getting injured this year? Not a terrible idea if true.

    Put me in the camp that thinks he returns for a late season run down the

    stretch. Remember who we're dealing with folks. These slippery SOB'S will find a way to get off with minimal damage. That I'm convinced of.

    At his draft position, nothing but a downside by playing.

    Really same thing for Nakamichi and Treadwell once he proves he is healed and speed is back.

    If that was true, why not play him to start with? Who are they trying to appease and why?

    He is just holding out for a raise. The step dad will get an extra bump after dropping charges and shutting up. Now they will have to give extra for insurance from injury.

    I think you're right, which I'm very surprised at, honestly. Not saying they will, but their offense has been just fine without him.

    The big bear I know says, he is done. Big bear won't engage in conversation about the investigation in general.

    They got problems in addition to big softie.

    If Tunsil get less than 8 games they've done a great job.

    Tunsil's situation now has nothing to do with stepdad. That's a dead issue. The issue now is with a loaner car and a disgruntled employee. He's done for the year. On to NFL for him.

    Bracky would have already offered 8-10 games

    As discussed ad nauseum if they were to play him during an investigation as to

    his amateur status and spit in the face of the NCAA they could get absolutely hammered. Just think USC and OSU but worse.

    The stepdad is the one who turned them onto the loaner car and other things they are still investigating. That's why the NCAA has yet to make a ruling on him as of today
