6 on 6 crime

Supposedly, there was a dust up between Garrett Shrader and Willie Gay in practice. There are rumors ranging from it being nothing to WG6 swelling GS's eye shut. Either way, I'm fine with it. It's football and these things happen. Maybe it'll instill some toughness.

GS must not be that bright though. Willie Gay is probably the last person on that team I'd try to take on.

Thank goodness.

We need more of this. Builds continuity, respect, and a savage mentality.

Most all good teams have fights. It’s a sign that the players passionately care

You are basing the "supposedly" on the thread at SPS?

[msstate7]

Rumor on sps says shrader was suspended for ark game bc of fighting.

That and Steve Robertson on 247.

Cool. What did Steve have to say about it?

Said it happened after practice and that the rumors going around are exaggerated.

[bulldawg28]

Fights happen all the time in football. Maybe if it had happened in August the team would have been a more physical team.

[confucius say]

I think the key here is whether it happened during practice, immediately after while still on the field, or well after practice has ended. If it is the latter, cannot really say it was just a heat of the moment practice dust up.

[TNDawg35]

I heard Willie slapped him so hard that GS beard now looks like Randy Wastons hair with Soul Glow in it...

[KOdawg1]

Stolen from another board but..

"Willie said "Yall's offense got no chemistry!"
GS said "At least we do our own chemistry."

In that case:

Shrader - 1

Willie - 0

I tend to agree, except I feel like those sort of fights are during practice and born out of competitiveness. By all accounts this was immediately after practice concluded, still on the field but with helmets off. Not exactly a time when you expect fisticuffs to break out involving your starting QB and maybe your best player on defense. I'm not saying it's detrimental or anything, but I also don't think it's a good thing in this context. Seems like one or both of them had to have been acting like an idiot for this to have happened.

Agree. But it'll still end up being a positive in some way

True, there financially seems to be a pecking order established on the team.

What?? This was over a chemistry test?***

[MaroonFlounder]

If what I'm hearing is correct, Willie did something in practice that Garrett told him would draw a flag during a game.

Willie didn't like that and gave him a black eye.

Given Willie's history in games, Garrett was probably right.

[Uncle Ruckus]

Steve is now saying that Garret will be assessed in Nashville. It’s not just a dustup. Garret got 17ed up and it’s more serious than he reported.

If this is true, either Willie has a Mike Tyson right hook OR Joe and his staff have zero control. Fights are going to happen that's part of it but when your starting QB is going to have to be "assessed" prior to the bowl game that tells me this is way beyond competitive tension between two teammates.

Just another black eye for SloMo.

[Cowbell]

We have a clown running this team. It's more apparent every day that it ain't gettin no better.
