Saban said it was an NCAA violation, s probably PEDs. 1 year suspension if that is the case.
Someone on BOL posted that he would be required to sit out the first 4 games of 2019.
People are just assuming right now so the PED thing is rumor to me until shown otherwise.If it is just the first 4 games then it was almost certainly NOT performance enhancers that they found in his urinalysis. I imagine Saban will not comment until the NCAA gives their final ruling. I assume an appeal process is happening right now.
Everybody is guessing, not assuming. But I agree that it could be almost anything. Sneeze in the wrong direction and you violate an NCAA rule.People are just assuming right now so the PED thing is rumor to me until shown otherwise.
It would also be great news for him and Alabama. He is enormously talented.If missing four games is true, that sounds like illegal benefits.
or a failed drug test of the non-performance enhancing type. It's a rumor, but from a solid source who is usually right.If missing four games is true, that sounds like illegal benefits.
Yeah not all drug tests are failed because of PEDs...or a failed drug test of the non-performance enhancing type. It's a rumor, but from a solid source who is usually right.
If it's a failed street-drug test, the penalty is suspension for 50% of the season in all sports in which the student-athlete participates - so that makes sense since they missed the last two games.or a failed drug test of the non-performance enhancing type. It's a rumor, but from a solid source who is usually right.
That’s usually what comes out of that area....... pure fantasyThere's an ugly rumor on that subject here in Barnland, but I think it's a fantasy.
That's what I was thinking. Would be a 6-game suspension total (including last two games of 2018 season). Didn't Tony Brown get a 6-game suspension for this?or a failed drug test of the non-performance enhancing type. It's a rumor, but from a solid source who is usually right.
Not sure a guy that has started 4 or 5 games in his college career would be declaring for the draft no matter the circumstance.PED would be the most significant penalty because he'd be out for the entire 2019 season. If it were PEDs, we'd be hearing his unexpected declaration for the 2019 NFL Draft soon.
