Well, we have two conflicting source reports. One side says "No big deal, no one we'll really miss too much" and the other says "It's going to suck and ruin our season."
I guess the only thing left to do is wait and see. I'm not going to get worked up about rumor and speculation.
Whop was also gone and not coming back, so people with their sources have been pretty lame lately
It's not going ruin our season. It's going to sting in a couple of spots. And obviously, we will be short on bodies which hurts ST and depth.
You were most vocal in your implication that KT would not be available for at least the first game. Not trying to play "gotcha", but curious as to whether you are sticking by that at this point. When we're up by 30+ in the 4th quarter, is KT coming in for TS or will it be one of the freshmen?
And by 'sting' I think it means we'll give up yardage on the ground we didnt expect to in non conference games and the UK and UT games could be closer than we want due to us having a weaker run defense. Overall though, we will be far from "ruined".
Which, not to worry. That comment will be long intentionally forgotten when it fails to come to fruition.
Regardless, we have a game in a couple weeks. Whoever we run out there I'll praise when they do well and dog cuss when they screw up. Then at the end of the game we'll see how the dust settles.
I hope what I just heard about the length of the suspensions for 2 VERY KEY Defensive players is not correct. If true, WOW, just WOW.
Not Good.
Here is a rumor: The people who actually KNOW what is going on aren't positing about it on the internet.
Yea been a tough week for sources
We lost 3 DT's from last season. One was a 1st round pick and the other two are highly likely to make a roster in the NFL. That hurts and everybody knows it.
Now, lets remove our best returning DT and 2 others in the rotation for 8 of our 12 games. Our DT's will get single blocked alot this year and that is a killer because the LB's wont be free to run to the ball like last year because they will have OL guys in the face constantly.
Shoop is going to earn his money this year.
I have a source whose sorces told him all this suspension talk is just unsourced rumors leaked by Moorhead to uncover any sources who are spreading rumors and to uncover the source of any leaks. ... in fact the 8 game suspensions will be for.......
All y'all's sources. They will be put on an 8 game paid administration leave and will have all source credentials revoked
Bigger question is: do we get to choose the games?
Yes, an 8 game suspension is bad, but if the 4 games they are play are against LSU, Auburn, A&M, & LSU, then I think we can survive
The best you can hope for if it all boils down to 8 players for that many games is that your depth is built and your few starters are rested for down the stretch. The NCAA still has Love to rule on. He's been practicing and going through it like everybody else, but I have not heard much about vs the young guys there. Lovett is actually getting more praise than Love...
In the end, it forces guy to step up.. ON BOTH sides of the ball. We may have to pull our defense through some games. It sucks for Moorhead though.
8 players for 8 games including 2 DT and a starting LB could reduce our wins to a bottom tier bowl and mass hysteria within the fanbase during the off season. Sure as hell hope it ain't that.
The tutor was kicked out of school but what I want to know is how did this get so far that it affected multiple sports and a number of athletes. How did it go so far that we found out about this too late that we had to turn it over to Bracky. There should have been procedures followed where we have a middle man to prevent this from even happening to where it doesn?t get to our compliance arm. Who vetted this tutor and had oversight on them? They kind of fell asleep at the wheel there. That?s what I want to know.
Next man up! Way too much negative about the season, time will tell and why worry and get your panties in a wad?
Offense from looking on the outside and on paper looks the best it's been in a while.
I've seen and heard worse, Msu will survive so take a deep breathe and stop with all the "it's soooo bad", again next man up!
Oh I ain't pumping sunshine nor I'm I ready to jump off DWS, enjoy and be happy. I have come to realize rumors destroy fans. I read where some on here blame Joe for ticket sales this year, if that is true then message boards play a big part, but so does ticket prices and tv game. It's hot as Haiti as well and that doesn't doesn't help.
