Aeris Sitting First Half

[Really Clark?]

Moorehead stayed it was an accountability issue and he understood

[dawgday166]

Accountability from Aeris. That's somewhat hard to believe.

Twice this year. He's lost his starting job, and that's a tough pill to swallow

What happened then ... Do you know?

[msstate7]

What happened then ... Do you know?

Nah, no idea

[sandwolf]

Didn't he sit a game earlier in the year because of this?

[I_Spy]

I love all our running backs Kylin, aeris, nick, d lee

Will we have a 1000 yard rushing running back this year? Because we should out of this group, one would think. I can’t figure it out. But it’s all pissing me off when I think about our losses.

I?m already on record as saying I completely disagree with how Jo handles the practice crap and player rotations of the skill guys. Aries has never been a problem. Jo not letting him touch the damn field most of the season is bullshit. Losing your starting job is one thing. Not touching the field is stupid. Of course, the RBs don?t get carries anyway, so it?s a moot point I guess. Not rotating players is going to be tough in the SEC. Just too damn physical.

How do you know Aeris was never a problem? How do you know Mullen didn't play favorites and let him get away with stuff?

With your insinuation, I suppose you have proof he did

Because I know. And that’s as good an answer as your question asked.

Inquiring minds, let us in on what you KNOW.

No, I have no idea. I only asked a question and made no insinuations or statements of fact. I'm just wondering because of the thread on Six Pack that talked about Mullen playing favorites and letting certain players slide. It's weird in any event. He's had two issues that caused him to be benched. The other option is that Moorhead doesn't like him and is doing it out of spite. That seems less likely.

[Dawg2003]

That makes me wonder if he's acted out in some way because he lost his starting job. That seems the most plausible of any explanation.

Because the folks that know aeris know that your scenario is extraordinarily unlikely to the point that it's absurd.

[Bully13]

I thought the first time it was due to practice hustle. Same stuff maybe?

[MaroonFlounder]

It's hard to make sense of the reduced carries for a Senior RB that is coming off a 1,000 yard rushing season last year.

But I think the minimal wear and tear on his body means he will do very well at the combine in the spring and have a chance to be on a NFL roster.

[West Tn Dawg]

I have no idea what the issue is, but I would have to believe there is something going on. No way a coach would come out publicly and lie about something like this. Williams and anybody else would call him out in a second!

[sandwolf]

I'm sure he's a good guy, but whether it is on the field or off, he's clearly not getting his shit handled. Because this is the second time that Moorhead has suspended him, and he's not doing it for no reason.

How is it hard to make sense when he has a superior RB ahead of him?
