    But the 15% thingy??? 1.8 games and policy states to round up. Kinda backs you in a hole. Unless it says "up to 15%". In that case it doesn't have much teeth.

    I don't know why everyone is so hung up on this policy like it's set in stone. The 15% is for a 2nd failed test, and what are the odds of all 3 failing a first test without it leaking? And Les isn't bound by the "counseling" policy for a first offense is he felt a suspension was in order.

    I take it policy states "up to 2" games but can be held at one. Either way, fully expect Miles to play with this.

    I read that it was 15% of remaining games, which would have been the first 3 quarters of the auburn game.

    Love it and I believe it.

    But is there any NCAA Rule that says a Coach HAS to disclose that before a game? Kind of like the injury rule in the NFL?

    Hope not. Sabans eyes will be matching his Crimson Red shirts by the end of next week...

    no, les didnt announce it this week until right at kickoff what everyone knew long before.

    les protects his players more than he worries about the gamesmanship.

    nothing bama prepares for with or without ware, simon and mathieu would be any different.
