whole story is unusual for sure but the lack of info isn't that atypical from the way saban does things. runs a tight ship. like i said, I'm sure we'll get some kind of formal response to the story this week with a bit more info
No doubt. It's just odd that there hasn't even been rumors leaked. I'm guessing Saban feels there's a good chance it's a minimal suspension, in the end, since he's letting him practice.

Not if it is a failed drug test. The NCAA suggested language for release (page 12 in this document) is:
Like I said above, I'm assuming Saban and the AD think Brown's suspension will be minimal. Have there been rumors that Brown had issues with drugs/PEDs before?

I don't recall anything ever connected to him re; drugs. Guy was in Saban's doghouse most of last year though....he has been practicing mostly with the 1's all spring. Saban and the University are appealing so it doesn't seem too bad. Maybe an issue connected from the playoff incident when he got sent home from the MSU game.

No drug rumors, but the kid's shown himself to pretty much be an all-around dumbarse. He's seemingly been in some kind of trouble since the day he arrived.
If the problem's a failed NCAA drug test then there's no way the suspension will be minimal. The NCAA bylaws mandate 50% of the games for recreational and a calendar year for PEDs.
