I didn't know he was in the doghouse. I though his suspension was an ncaa thing. At least that what CNS said.
CNS referenced it as an "amateurism" issue with the NCAA. Didn't say much more except that they'd comply.

Getting Bo mid season would be a real boost to the offense IMO. Would keep some legs fresh moving forward.

I think the WRs, in particular Foster/Stewart/Black, are going to make the QB look good. Whomever that ends up being.

Derrick Henry told reporters in the morning media session his weight is up to 244.
Find that a little odd but he is a very big dude. Hope we keep him going north and south, seems like it would be hard for him to have effective lateral quickness at that weight..

So Bo's suspension coincides with his injury recovery timeline? If I was CNS I wouldn't have framed it like he said it, "Bo is still recovering from his injury and probably won't be healthy for the first four games. He's also suspended for the first four games."
If it's an NCAA issue, it is irrelevant really. They demand certain things for certain violations, and it doesn't really matter whether or not he's healthy. As it is, it seems like it would smooth his transition back a bit, as he can't be rushed out too early either way.

I agree. i don't think it really faze him, because either way he wasn't going to come back until 4th or fifth game...

Lateral movement hasn't been his M.O. anyway. He's not another "Nudi" but hopefully with the extra muscle weight he can be quicker to the hole and use that size to power through the second level to open it up. Will the extra weight slow his open field speed? YTBD but prolly not.

Alabama is 'hungry' for more in 2015-16 season

“The hungriest,” senior center Ryan Kelly said. “There’s enough guys here that haven’t even won a bowl game, you know, if you look at that, not even in the national championship scheme but just the way we go all season long, dominate and get to the last game. And it’s kind of like everybody’s kind of fallen apart. That’s one of the biggest things we’ve gotten back to. I can see the change in the coaching staff and in the players, too, the attitudes we bring every day.”

Some reaction on Twitter to the Cam Robinson injury sounds like it's a serious injury. No official confirmation on anything yet. If anyone knows anything for sure please post..
