Sumlin said today both he and Campbell will play this weekend. He also had a talk to him about tweeting during the game.

Have no idea what he originally did

Yeah, heard C-Mike had an argument with the RB coach and then skipped the following practice because of it.

Not good leadership from the senior. Come on, C-Mike!

I like that he has something to prove, and playing with a chip on his shoulder, he wants to win, just hoping KS can get him focused on putting that energy into trucking a LB rather than fighting the system.

Watching Houston play the last few years (My Bro was a Student and Living with me so we went to a lot of games) The RB's in this system have the potential to be explosive if they buy into it. Look up Bryce Beall and Charles Simms.

I just wish we would run a little with the o-line in a three point stance with a snap count. It is hard to drive good d-linemen out of a two point stance

He was on the bench down below us. Taped and ready to go. Great attitude, walking up and down the sidelines, congratulating offense when they came off. Finally made it into the game in the 3rd.

He must have seriously pissed Sumlin off. That guys is in the dog house for some reason. This is beyond a team rule thing.

Okay, that would do it. Guess Sumlin took that personally.

CMike is really hurting his pro aspirations. Yes, the system isn't as complimentary as Sherman's pro style, BUT...

The first lesson he needs is how to handle adversity not related to injury. Things will be rocky in the NFL and you need to be professional. Just because you don't like something you can't opt out of practice. It doesn't work in basketball and it sure as hell won't work in a 16 game NFL season.

C'mon, CMike, I'm rooting for you but you gotta get your head right.

I really thought KK was going to mix in some under center looks and run the ball with C-Mike.

He wasn't good about it, but I definitely understand his frustration. Guys like Lamothe who have worked so hard for this program are not being used. I really thought KK would throw Hicks in the slot as well, but all we have seen is him lining up in the shotgun with our backs for pass block.

Hopefully C-Mike is done with the issues. Hopefully he comes back this week, and runs like a raped ape over the Pigs, and then the rest of the SEC!

Pistol formation could solve a lot of our woes with under utilizing C-Mike (and our RBs) and our TEs imo. Just go back and watch what UNLV did a few years ago with their offense. Not saying we should completely change offensive schemes, just incorporate another look to give our weapons the ability to be utilized.

Of course, I'm sitting at a computer typing out my thoughts and I ain't getting paid to do it, so maybe the people who are getting paid know more about it than I.
