everyone in the media as well as the lawyer today who has working knowledge of how the NCAA works said that TAMU could not risk vacating games by playing JFF and then he be found ineligible..You keep throwing the OSU player back up at me does not detract from the number of folks who were on sports talk shows giving their expert opinion. and I am not referring to the personalities giving their opinions I am talking about their guests. Either way unless you are a TAMU insider you have an opinion and that is all that it is. ONe opinion. I chose to listen to those that don't have a dog in the fight when they voice their opinion.

You're not the ambassador of Aggie athletics. You have no idea how Sumlin rolls.

Really? Not because you know how important he is to the outcome of aTm's games this year?

So what really gets you going is seeing the NCAA prove things before suspending players?

This. His lawyer, A&M's lawyer and the majority of sportswriters in this state don't think he misses a single game.

Meanwhile, Joe Schad and the guy sued for libel two years ago keep insisting he will be suspended.

great come back..i just mentioned that I prefer to listen to the opinions of those who don't have a dawg in the fight then a few TAMU guys who claim to hCW knowledge of inside information on how Sumlin Rolls. IF you are an insider then shame on your for being on this site.

national media writers and the such. same exact people that he was going off about manziel not playing. look, if he plays, we think nothing will happen to him. if he doesnt, then we think he will get shite done to him. i dont understand whats so hard to understand from that

Well, Sumlin is not dumb. He will wait until the last minute to directly address this (suspend, play, not play, comment, etc).

You don't sit your talented centerpiece player (and Heisman Trophy winner) without gathering as much information, positive or negative, as possible.

Hence, he will wait on info that may or may not come. That is the most logical course of action for him and protects his program from several different angles.

What REALLY gets me going is seeing people like you lose sleep over people like me, but yes, I'd like to see the NCAA produce one written testimony or one tangible piece of physical evidence before we talk suspension.

the irony is that you said previously that you think he took money.
