1. He's a little nicked up. Ankle, I think.

2. He's probably been a little distracted by NCAA interviews about Auburn.

3. He might be targeted for a code red, because of his controversial switch. Lots of butthurt as evidenced by Robin Fester's commitment speech.

4. Don't need him this week. Need him next week.

Thoughts?

Not according to Nick Saban on Wednesday. He said that everyone on the team, minus those with season-ending injuries, should be ready for this game.

Injury? Or is it one of those "you're ineligible, now you're reinstated" deals?

Interesting. An Aubie posted yesterday Yeldon and three others would sit due to some potential problems from the NCAA talks.

I questioned and doubted him saying no way Yeldon got hurt in walk throughs at practice this week, too coincidental.

But now. Hmmm.

He got hurt in the last game. Didn't practice at beginning of week. Don't know the last few days.

And don't believe an Aubie. They are all idiots.

Ruben Foster will probably have to sit his first few games at UGA next year due to NCAA snooping around Trooper's tactics.

all great points that I have not thought about at all, I think it makes perfect sense. I might would let him break one long one just to say frick you and then sit him.

If true, there is precedent that would indicate they'll be reinstated and not affect prior games. But even so, I'm concerned about him playing distracted and with a target on his back/knees.

Well, TBH, you can't trust Kingpin. He starts rumors like this to troll Aubies and his own fanbase. He has started some in the past that got traction. One was actually "reported" by a newspaper in alabama as an actual story back in 2009.

That sounds like a sensible approach.

Have you seen the way we tackle? We could not target a slow moving elephant. Much less a specific body part on a super elusive RB like Yeldon.
