Fair enough. I only seen him in 2 games last year. Wasn't a factor against Bama but in the other game I seen him in he was all over the field.

He's a great tackler and good against the run, but gets lost in coverage and cannot cover a back or good tight end one-on-one to save his life.

With our current roster management needs I doubt we are bringing in a transfer MLB. If it is true that we are no longer in it for Arik Gilbert, the only place I can see a transfer is for a 4th QB or maybe punter depending on the look of things. We are basically loaded everywhere else especially if Arnold commits. I can't see us pursuing any UT guys.

well guess he will need a couple years as an analyst before he can join the on-field rehab squad

Considering what those Bucs boys were doing around Birmingham and Hoover during 2 A Days, I'm not surprised old coach Asparagus was looking the other way.

I don't think I've ever seen a school explicitly confess to failure to monitor.

Yea, pretty sure even if it isn't as bad as accused he is out of the game for a couple of years as this works it's way through the NCAA pipeline.

I’m amazed they pulled this move for what it seems is to just get out of paying his buyout.

Maybe they knew the NCAA had the good on them, if not this is the dumbest move I think I’ve ever seen.

A few of them were just enjoying some underage ambrosia in a lot of 21 and up clubs, nothing that serious . I would just always laugh when I would see them out taking advantage of the trappings of Fame .

I think at this point it's become pretty obvious that they didn't. It may have started that way, but there is no way they willingly did this.

LOLOLOLOL now they're spending half the press conference praising Fulmer - who hired Pruitt and then gave him a raise.

I can understand the pressure to push the pile as far as you can in recruiting but you can't cross the line with today's recruiting pool. Once something goes wrong for them then they are going to comeback again and again for the cash.

The worse thing that should have happened to JP was he fail at winning at UT. Getting fired for allowing recruits to be paid on his watch is much much worse.
