Theres's a difference between missing a large aggregate amount of time (3 weeks) vs. one week. HTH.


You said...

quote:

Another site has reported that Jenkins -- who's a starter -- has had very little reps with the 1s the last 2 weeks


So he's already missed two weeks either way.

quote:

Enforcing the suspension against Florida would result in Jenkins being held from the 1s in practice for another 10 days.


So he would miss a week + 3 days.

If he's held out for the week (7 days) before the LaTech game we're talking 3 additional practices missed if he's held out for Florida.

Unless I'm missing something somewhere?

The total time would be ostensibly the same.

The difference is, if you hold him out for Florida, you hold him out for an aggregate period that's longer than what was originally planned. This way, he's held out for the same aggregate time as he would have been had the game not been canceled.

Stacking multiple weeks of limited reps by virtue of the cancellation does the player an unjustified disservice.

aggregate periods

Take a step back, read what you just wrote, and tell me it doesn't sound like spin.

You left off the rest of the motto. In full form it's: "Aggies don't lie, cheat, or steal; we elaborate, collaborate, and borrow."

But he's missing roughly the same amount of reps either way.

You tried to make it sound like he's missing significantly more reps by the suspension being now instead of later. He still has practice with position coaches, team meetings, and etc so he's not missing practice all together.

There really is no justification for it no matter how hard you try.

It is a new system, and A&M started preparing for Florida yesterday since the LA directional school cannot play in the rain. Jenkins needs the practice reps, because he hasn't practiced in over a week and a half now. If he wasn't playing for FL, that would be THREE weeks of missed practice lost for a minor team rule violation.

If Sumlin really wanted to just "win", the players would be suspended for South Carolina State... they will not play against LA directional, as was decided by the coaching staff over a week ago.

Blame LA Directional if you don't like it, Gators! I give kudo's to Sumlin for the decision.
