🏈 Team Update 3 August, 2015.

[ttownlaw5]

Damien Harris was 3rd in line today with the RBs. All of the freshmen were there. There wasn't a separate practice for them. Not sure where your info is coming from.

Bo's suspension is an NCAA issue. May be reduced, but I wouldn't count on it.

 

[18Champs]

Let it be known BO Scar is not suspended what so ever. Rumor on BOL started it with 0 credibility. Drive on.

-- Saban said Scarbrough's suspension was NCAA-related but didn't want to get into the specifics.

According to the Suttles article, he was running 5th behind Henry, Drake, Bo, Clark, then Harris.

 

[Justneedme81]

Not worried about it. Bo needs to take his time with his injury anyway...

 

[Justneedme81]

Boz, its cool. WE still appreciate ya!

 

[Awbarns-fuct]

I'm.... gonna go to the....bathroom.

 

[ttownlaw5]

Harris was 3rd.

 

[Snout Spout]

Saban said Bo would be suspended the first 4 games even if he wasn't injured. Evidently, BOL had some cred.

How's he going to have a pitchcount against MTSU if he's suspended?

 

[Mr. Pink]

Harris was 3rd.

Aaron Suttles saw differently.

 

[Snout Spout]

Harris was 3rd.

Glad to see you finally made it over.

 

[Snout Spout]

3rd would make a lot more sense than to be behind a suspended/injured guy and a converted safety. If he was 5th, I'd like to see him move up fast.

 

[Elderfalsedemigod]

I hope Harris progresses well. Past experience with running backs under CNS says they ain't gonna play much until they can block well. We do get the occasional "jump ahead" but typically the frosh struggle in pass blocking.

 

[rueben]

Guess source got it wrong, nor the first or last time.

I think since it was an NCAA thing, it may not have been as wide spread, as it would have been if it were an internal issue. Also, the way Saban said they would have to honor the wishes of the NCAA it was not a thing that CNS agreed with. I've seen similar things happen in my place of employment.

It's the first practice. What kind of message do you send to Ronnie Clark when you put him ahead without him even earning it?

Well what message would you send by having a suspended guy in front of Harris?

Anyway this al.com practice report agreed with ttownlaw that Harris was 3rd. http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2015/08/watch_senior_qb_jake_coker_in.html

Maybe it was weed, then.

 

[Elderfalsedemigod]

I think NCAA "weed suspension" is more than 4 games. I am leaning toward some kind of impermissible benefits/nit picky bullshit.

Cream cheese on a bagel?

I think it used to be. I thought maybe they would have reduced it by now. How long is that Oregon guy's suspension?

The article I read said "half the season". Maybe it is weed and Bama got it shortened or something
