PigskinPat 2,539 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Rivals and 247 are saying that the intent was to redshirt Asa, but someone on staff screwed that up. Is anyone else hearing this? BM showed Asa’s stats, that he played a total of 14 snaps over 5 games, in the Arkansas game he only played 1 snap. The plan was to redshirt him, but the staff didn’t realize he had already played too much until it was too late. Is anyone else hearing this??!!

SKIPPER_01 99 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Can this be considered breach of contract? I know, I'm grasping at straws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samau 110 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Pretty sure it’s true and three of the 5 games he played in were two or less plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKIPPER_01 99 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Regardless if screwup, I think Asa should be playing since boobie is hurt. Gus's comment yesterday that he would be playing special teams is stupid. Develop your young players you idiot!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr82b4au 5,568 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 How is it possible for the player and the coaches to not know this? I agree that he should be playing anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerOne 1,113 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Auburn is like the family that in 2018 still has a dialup modem for internet service and a Nokia flip phone. meanwhile uat across the street has a high speed supercomputer, a dedicated sattellite and 100 experts on call 24/7.

It's not like the fumble he had earlier is a big deal at this point. JS is good for at least 1 fumble a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that he should be playing anyway. This is Gus and the way he treats his RBs. He would rather play a RB that is hurt then give another RB any reps. I think Gus was trying to RS Asa, but we’re going down the tubes. Time for all hands on deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boddagetta09 28 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 This is 100% fact. Asa was under the impression that he would be a redshirt this year, and the coaches failed him. He did not play against Tennessee for this very reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about any other staff I would say it was crazy to even suggest this. With this staff, it just seems like par for the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
