Florida starting QB Will Grier suspended for at least 2015 due to PEDs, per reports

Sorry forgot to cite :hyper:

Well, their run was fun while it lasted. I don't think the second string guy is at the stage Grier had gotten to. LSU's job just got A LOT easier.

I believe dual threat Treon Harris is QB2 for UF. Though didn't he start the season as QB1?

If you want humor go follow the fake Jim McElwain account on twitter

I found it some time ago and he is occasionally funny but for the past hour it has been gold

Yeah, I take back what I wrote in another thread about that game this weekend.

Ditto. I said LSU would win in a squeaker but I think it won't be close anymore ..

Grier's suspension expected to last 1 year from today, but lawyers are involved in appeals process. Could be rest of season, longer. #Gators

Incredible string of luck.

This leaves the UF start to their back-up, Harris. Last week LSU faced the Gamecocks playing their third string quarterback. In their second SEC game they were facing Jeremy Johnson. There's another story with one of the teams they faced and them having a QB issue ...

And to think that they began the season with a quarterback issue of their own...

Grier admits he took over-the-counter substance with "something in it", will appeal suspension.

His press conference was really sad, tough to watch.

 

[planomateo]

Kudo's to CJM for handling this head on.

LSU is still gonna have their hands full.

And he will lose. This battle has been fought in court before involving other sports. And here is the breakdown in layman's terms. Even if you don't know a certain substance is in a product that you have used, you still gain the "competitive advantage" of that product. I hate it for the kid, and for Fla, COach Mac and the everyone involved. I really hate the NCAA period. But,all they have to do is pull the previous court rulings.

I really don't get the whole "competitive advantage" aspect. The whole game is about competitive advantage...better recruits, better coaches, better locker room, better fitness, better technologies, etc, etc, etc.

 

[alabama mike]

Ouch! That is a huge blow to the Gators.

Let me re-word, " Impermissible competitive advantage. " And I don't 100% agree with it either. But again, it is what it is...

Why's that? I missed it, grr
