Nothing like a heaping tablespoon of radical clarity. Given the kid’s multiple stops in his dogged pursuit of a high school education, quitting may be his signature move.

A very knowledgeable, well loved coach once said it gets easier every time you quit.......quitting may be his signature move.
The missing class part is something some of us tried to allude to last week. I was told last week it had been three weeks, which mean he can’t pass any of the classes he’s taking this semester. Thus, he’d be academically ineligible.One thing is certain - if he has not been going to class and has not been keeping up his grades, he is not playing for anyone this year. I hope that he get things figured out so he can find his way onto the field for someone next year, whether it be Alabama or someone else. He has a ton of talent, and it would be a shame to see it wasted.
Possibly... if the family reason is the sole reason.He could probably get some kind of academic hardship concessions from the school due to the family and otherwise emotional problems but I don't know if that means much with the NCAA.
Yes. The problems started before his grandmother's. Class and practice attendance is unfortunately mandatory...Possibly... if the family reason is the sole reason.
I’m not sure Saban would make such a brash statement if this was only because of the way Alfano was handling the passing of his grandmother.

Where is Jonathan Allen when you need him. Point being that when the NFL plucks away your senior leaders, you lose the role models these freshmen need.One thing is certain - if he has not been going to class and has not been keeping up his grades, he is not playing for anyone this year.

I think Moses was gonna be that guy this year. Losing him was catastrophic.Where is Jonathan Allen when you need him. Point being that when the NFL plucks away your senior leaders, you lose the role models these freshmen need.
Davis just doesn’t seem to possess that quality. Not seeing it in Jennings and Lewis either. They are veterans. But don’t seem to have the ability to lead.
IIRC, unless things have changed since I was in school (probably has), it takes more than one Quarter/Semester to get Academically Ineligible (not talking about playing time). That rule was in place (at that time) to allow for Freshmen to adjust to campus life.The missing class part is something some of us tried to allude to last week. I was told last week it had been three weeks, which mean he can’t pass any of the classes he’s taking this semester. Thus, he’d be academically ineligible.

This is indeed the biggest issue for that D. Who are the leaders? McKinney? The O is solid, leadership is set...the OL will improve, especially when Brown gets back. But that D, where is the leadership?Where is Jonathan Allen when you need him. Point being that when the NFL plucks away your senior leaders, you lose the role models these freshmen need.

So i get crushed the other day about being harsh when I said he should go because of the mistakes he has made and made them worse. It appears from earlier posters that it is more than grandmothers illness. Hopefully he figures it out. From listening to Coach Saban, I think the ship has sailed. rtr
