Gus Bus sighting on Auburn's campus this morning.

It's been on fire. This is just another cup of gasoline thrown on it.

I hope. Hope he reversed this trend. I really do. But I need to see it.

[Godfather]

So Gus dismisses the kid, the kid says he isn't like Duke but then airs his dirty laundry in a story to the fucks at al.com.  Yeah see ya Jovon.


I guess we could have been like bama and just trashed his stuff.

Report: Alabama trashed Maurice Smith’s personal belongings after talking to Nick Saban about transfer.

It’s safe to assume that Maurice Smith did not envision his plans of transferring from the University of Alabama to go this poorly.

Smith, a senior defensive back that appeared in 22 games for the Crimson Tide over the last three seasons, told coach Nick Saban of his plans to leave the program in hopes of more playing time back in June before making it public. And if weren’t suiting up for college football’s Goliath, it probably would have been an easy process — much smoother than it’s gone to this point, at least.

Since his announcement, reports have indicated that Alabama has been uncooperative with Smith’s desires all the way through, even recently blocking his attempt to transfer to Georgia — where he would join former Tide defensive coordinator, Kirby Smart. But apparently that’s not even the worst of it.

According to a report from DawgNation.com, Smith was “ostracized” by his superiors and teammates after he informed the team of his decision to leave. Smith wrote to Alabama’s appeal committee on July 1, which was provided to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday by Smith’s mother, Samyra:

“On Friday, June 17, I arrived at the athletic facility locker room to find my locker cleaned out and all of my personal belongings in the trash (photo attached) underneath trash,” Smith wrote. “These personal items included my family photos, written goals, inspirational and sentimental items memorializing my deceased former friend, roommate and teammate, Altee Tenpenny, and items of personal value from my former teammates.”

The letter says that the madness began on June 13, when Smith initially requested a “permission to contact” from Alabama’s compliance department.

“I was immediately contacted by UA coaching assistants and advised I would no longer be able to “work-out” with the team.”

Four days later, Saban met with Smith and told him he didn’t need a “formal document” to speak with other schools. Smith insisted on one, according to the letter, and then Saban told him he would not release him to any SEC schools. Smith then received a “permission to contact” form.

Not long after, an unidentified Alabama staffer told Smith that he could no longer work out at the athletic facility. Another staff member later told him he was no longer allowed at the athletic facility “to workout, to eat, or anything.”

“Although I had done nothing wrong, I basically was ostracized from the team and felt I was being forced to make a decision to transfer.”

Smith is set to graduate from Alabama this Saturday. In his letter, he finished with one final message:

“Please do not punish my success and instead reward the efforts of discipline, and determination that UA requires in all of their student-athletes to succeed.”

It does not seem like this is a story that will be going away anytime soon.

Read an article that Jovon is basically blaming the coaches for stereotyping. Kind of sounding close to race baiting. He also said the other players don't like it either. Oc course, this is from al.cum.

I sent a strongly worded E-mail to the Athletic dept. and cc'd Gus letting them know my frustration and I have now put my trip on hold for now. I'm awaiting their response.

Noticed that he "messaged" al.com.  I wonder which one of the bama honkers started that conversation?

It could have been a group message followed by a bunch of hearts and hugs.

[WiregrassTiger]

You must have confused this with the al.com boards?  I agree with everything you said except the first line, I don't really see any one bitching or knee jerk reacting in this thread?!?

I'm not gonna pretend I'm not disappointed in the fact that we lost a guy whose potential from last year looked like he was going to make some waves in the SEC this year.  I'm not gonna pretend that his loss doesn't hurt us. 

However, I will remind everyone that this time last year Roc Thomas was the #1 back with Jovon as #2  and who was the man at RB last year? Only a guy named Peyton Barber.  So hopefully one of our other guys will step up and be that man.

I think the knee jerking is laying this blame on Gus already when running Jovon off may have been necessary. It puts us in a tight spot with depth but I think between Pettway, carry on and the white boy and others we will be ok.

We've already been hearing good things about Pettway,

[Snaggletiger]

Heard this morning on our local sports talk that he had twatted out two things.  First, something to the effect of "The man behind the mic making excuses."  Followed later by, "Outside influences are never a good thing."

Yes.  ^^that in the bold.  That is what I was saying.

This is two years in a row Gus has kicked off his best offensive player, and he doesn't have a QB that we have seen yet.  These reactions aren't knee-jerk.  It's just like that shot head Chizik is running the show.  We've all seen how this ends...

So....Gus is the Great and Powerful Oz?  Or does he mean Jay in his second tweet?
Or is he just a dumbass that can't stay out of trouble and then wants to race bait?

But Duke needed gone before he was kicked off.  It was apparent with the fall practice reports.  If Duke was our best offensive player then he damn sure didn't play like it.  If he was a cancer then he needed to be gone.  Sounds like, if you believe the rumor mill, that Javon was a cancer too.  Again, when you recruit JUCO, this is what happens.  You take chances on kids that may be a risk.  Sometimes they pan out, sometimes they don't. Go watch Last Chance U on Netfilx and look at what kind of kid you are dealing with 9/10 times in the JUCO ranks. 

I don't care if it's your best player or not.  If they are a cancer and causing distractions, then get rid of their ass.  I also point out again that this has been going on for a long time at AU, even during the Tot and Tubbs years.
