According to every writer on Twitter, it was a violation of team rules. I would imagine he won't be back next year.

Wow, in his home state. I bet his family was there. He must have really pissed folks off.
Would they send anyone home for missing curfew?

Ryan Anderson and Dillon Lee were sent home when we were in Miami for the title game in 2012.

Maybe, but who takes Harrison's spot over the top?

6 DBs will be Humphrey, Fitzpatrick, Jackson, Smith, Jones, and Harrison. I guess if a 7th was needed it would be mo Smith

Man, it's so frustrating when a a guy with talent like Tony Brown just won't/can't get his shite together.

If we win tomorrow, it will be interesting to see if he makes the trip for the next game.

He seemed to improve after getting yelled at by Saban during a practice. Maybe this kind do tough love is what TB needs. Worked for Anderson and Lee.

What spot?

On defense he only ever fills in for Minkah anyway. I'd guess on special teams either Averett or Washington but I'm not sure off the top of my head who's on each unit. Which could actually be an issue as he's actually been one of our stand outs on ST when he's not blocking the opposition in the back.

sylve is still in the mix too. Not a huge deal unless somebody gets hurt.

Sylve plays outside corner. He doesn't play any other position. Jones and Humphrey play corner. Their direct back up is Fitzpatrick who starts at star.

This isn't an issue in terms of on-field impact. Minkah is healthy now. Brown is well down the DB depth chart. Could be a factor if a couple guys get banged up and we advance to play OU Or Clemson.

All we know is a violation of team rules not university rules. If the kid is dismissed from the football team my money is the track will be in the AD's office getting Brown that full ride in track.
