I made a thread on this early this morning but I don't know if Turbine deleted or what because I cannot find it. If the thread was deleted, that's a bull____ move.

Well DLB got hurt in warm ups for the first bowl game and gillis played 2 more years. It was Richard not Cook, but those 3 survived after Richard admitted they were his. Can't recall why Cook left/kicked off.

Cook had off field issues but Im almost positive Cook was diagnosed with illness while here and forced to quit.

I always thought he coulda been a pass rush freak if he coulda stayed. Played with a ton of emotion.

So Nixon has 2 successful drives, 1 of then that was garbage time and he is the savior but haack has a bad game and he isn't ready, got it.

---Nixon played throughout the game even on the first drive when he made an excellent run for a first down!! The more rules you make the more that can be broken-------Yes I know that his punishment must run its course but damn we could use him!!! Lou Holtz's suspensions of many players when he was at Arkansas did work out well----A truly great coach!!

I don't think this is the thread for that discussion, but I'll say that a) Nixon and Haack have shown about equal amounts of good stuff with Nixon not having a terrible South Al performance, and b) that being said, Haack is the guy that's kept his nose clean and is able to compete so I have zero problem with him as our backup AND as the projected starter next year. Nixon messed up, if he wants that job he's going to have to serve his entire punishment then beat Haack and whatever other new guys we have competing. Nothing will or should be given to him.

On the topic of Hill, I'm all for due process, so have him suspended until all of this is cleared up. However, they've got whatever happened on video and were compelled to arrest him based on that. I'll just say it doesn't look good, and if he is indeed guilty then playing football for us will both be out of the question and the least of his concerns.

Just FYI, from the info I've been able to attain which is off the record, the video was not available at the time of arrest and that it may exonerate the young man. There is also a child involved, so lets hold off judgment until all the facts have been released. While it looks bad on its face, this is much more than just a claim of domestic violence at this time.

Hopefully he Domestically Abused and Battered the NCAA Clearinghouse representative who held his case up. I wonder if he had been allowed to play if this would have happened.

i doubt this had anything to do with playing time...so im guessing you are joking

I don't know what happened and will reserve judgement until everything comes out.
