AU_Tiger_88 417 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 For some of you who are wondering why if he is on campus and not participating in Spring ball. When your mind is not on practice but home events you are more susceptible to injury. You do the same thing in other jobs where you need your full concentration or you risk injury to yourself or others. If he is not in school and helping out at home then that is a different story. Either way it will come out and we will know more by fall. I think too many people are assuming the worst. Let's give the kid the benefit of believing that it is personal reasons and not assume the worst until it is known. That is what I plan on doing.

Well that would certainly be... noteworthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedaler 1,000 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 He will be back by summer if not sooner. Will not be in time for any Spring practices though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too, don't think he is away for Jovon/Duke reasons. Hope he's okay though. Away from Campus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thread is surprisingly clean. 4 hours ago, Mikey said: 3)The NCAA's academic progress requirements can effect eligibility to play. That will depend on how far ahead or behind his academic schedule he was when he dropped out. The public isn't likely to learn that detail. This only comes into play if he did not properly withdraw from classes before leaving for the semester. Regardless of the sitch he has 5 years to play 4 seasons provided he is passing classes.

abw0004 10,104 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I remember when he was a recruit that he had really good grades and was a fine young man outside of school so I would be very surprised if it was that. I do not think it is the right place to speculate or start rumors about his family's health issues, out of respect for him and his family. I know most of us would be upset if we heard other people talking about our family member's health status, especially if untrue. In time, we will know if he comes back to the team or not, and it might just be best to leave it at that, instead of gossiping about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there hasn't been one ounce of negativity or people throwing crap against the wall relative to the kids circumstances. Folks are mainly giving support, offering prayers to he and his family and hoping he gets things cleared up and back on campus to complete his education and possibly get back on the field.

He's still got summer session to catch up on his course load and get back on track academically, and if things smooth out in his personal life he may be able to carve out time for football.

AuburnNTexas 7,127 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I always give the player the benefit of the doubt. I am assuming it is exactly what they are saying person problems. I am praying for him and his family whatever the problem is and hoping it all works out and we see him in the fall. Lets quit making guesses on what the reason is and drop this thread until we have some real information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exams are right around the corner as well. Absent for practices but present for classes. There's always the weekend to handle what needs to be done.

Right, and I'm not trying to raise questions about being present for class and not for practices, I'm just assuming that he is still in class.

If trying to say that my gut feeling tells me that he hasn't done anything that "people have alluded to" isn't trying to support a kid then idk what is.
