That's true, and if Metchie and Williams were kicked off the team after the SECCG, I'm sure Alabama fans would still have used the excuse that their loss was due to those two missing.
If they weren't on the team then they wouldn't be missing as only players on the team can be considered missing.

This is easily of your top 5 dumbest claims this off-season. Lots of contenders.

A player missing--for any reason--will typically be looked at as a reason for a loss if it is suspected that his involvement would likely have led to production for the team. If the star QB quits the team and their teammates feel let down that the quitter didn't stick around to help, then according to you, the quitter isn't really missed because only those who are on the team can be missed. Let's forget about the team harmony that is disrupted or the need for a backup to try to make up for that lack of production.
If Metchie and Williams were kicked off the team immediately following the SECCG, you don't think they would be considered "missed" by their team?
