Title: How many suspensions and dismissals for the year 2013?
Post by: Townhallsavoy on December 20, 2013, 08:34:17 AM
Man...just an abysmal year for Nick Saban.  Dude should be run out of town....

Quote
Alabama linebacker Xzavier Dickson and running back Alvin Kamara are suspended for the Sugar Bowl.

In a brief statement, Alabama coach Nick Saban announced the suspensions after Thursday's practice. Saban, who will next speak with reporters Sunday, did not specify whether the players would practice over the next weeks.

Since August, Saban has suspended eight players for various transgressions. Defensive end LaMichael Fanning is the only player who has yet to return from his punishment.

Other than Ricky Parks I can't recall another player for Auburn under Gus to step out of line.

Does Erique Florence count?

I'd expect there to be more suspensions and dismissals for Gus as it's his first year, and he needed to get rid of Chizik's trash.  These are all Saban's recruits that have been in his program.  Looks like quite a few of them are starting to not care, and most of them are guys that filling the depth chart.

Pettway doesn't count though, because he came back to collect his money...

I doubt it's as much an indication that he's "losing control" of his players, discipline-wise, as it is he's "losing control" of dominance.

Gotta cut the dead weight.

I thought Florence was put out before we had pickup service but yeah we can count him.

Dead weight= Roster cuts and grey shirts.
Annual evaluation is just part of the process.

Imagine Gus had suspended 8 players in less than 3 months.

Suppose he had re-signed the one guilty of the most egregious, heinous, act of the bunch on JUCO signing day.

How many AL.com articles would we be seeing about a program in disarray? What would Pete Thamel have to say about it? How often would the phrase "dark cloud" be used?

More like "the culture of corruption started under Pat Dye continues"...

Prime example is last week when Lord Saybinz agreed to an extension. It dominated the news and on al. I am a gay twerker that has no balls!!!!  I also have no idea how to use the quote function to post stories, so I annoy the piss out of others.  I like male genatalia in and around my mouth., the front page was LORD SAYBINZ REMAINS THE EXALTED RULER ON HIGH, while the team playing in the national championship had one piece about a player who got booted before the season, agreed to pre-trial diversion on a possession charge.  In other words, pay your fines and attend rehab classes and we'll wipe the charge from your record.  "AUBURN PLAYER ENTERS REHAB...."  Film at 11:00

You guys are nuts, everyone can clearly see our program is in shambles, and the NCAA is looming.
