Wow. Manziel and aTm gotta be licking their chops now. Gonna go check and see how big of a splash this is making on the aTm and Bama forums
Some initial comments from Aggies on an aTm forum: Bad news for them trying to cover our WRs this year! their top cornerback and lineman going down. Do you really think they will be able to stop us? They wouldn't have been able to stop us with all of them. So no. Ags win by 7-10, but it comes late. WHOOOP!!! suspended or not won't matter, they've got about 5 other 5 stars as back ups. We are going to run the ball down their throats. Our RBs will have over 200 yards rushing.
Comments from Bama fans on a Bama forum: Big ole SIGH!!! The one place we are razor thin is CB and he does this 2 weeks before VT?!?!? I expect he's going to miss 2-3 games now including A&M and we really needed him for that one. Stupid stupid stupid mistake. Hopefully, we will beat VT and possibly ATM without him. This is one of the most selfish things a player on this team, or any team for that matter, to do to his teammates. Sept 14 (Texas A&M) just got a wee bit more difficult. Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb...... Very dumb mistake Stupid just plain dumb. And irresponsible. Is there no end to the stupidity of some of these young people? Obviously, the 'Process' just can't be mentally processed by some of these youngsters. It's not like they don't know what is expected of them. Getting arrested is not part of The Process! this is more evidence that many of alabama's players are not focused like they should be. Leadership is key to turning that around now is the time for the leadership on the team to gather and get the youngsters thinking as one. The core is there I hate it for the team and for us fans. It's a shame This is not what I wanted to hear this morning while hung over! This is not good Just saw this on ESPN.com. Sigh... Now, if you all will pardon me, I'm going to bash my head into the wall.. I'd bet many players across the country get arrested for DUI every year and it never sees the light of day on ESPN... I bet this is the number 1 news story right now, not just for college football but sports in general. Suspend him through the UK game (half of the season). Make him do visible, public community service, plus whatever the legal system dishes out. Send a message ... And yes, if it were AJ then I would say the same thing. Title runs be damned.
Comments on AL.com: the Tide is very deep at corner. He has a lot of folks behind him just looking for a shot and now they have it!!! I thought we were short-manned at.corner. I hope you are right. It is actually considered one of the thinnest positions. ... ... ... Bottom line, we won't remember either one of these incidents while Bama is skull dragging Auburns out of JH in 3 1/2 months. Get ya head straight, Geno. You got Pick Six's to work on, boy!
I don't blame him for drinking. With all the pressure one Geno Smith trying to play cornerback for Alabama AND win the Jets starting QB job it would drive anybody to drink.
Regular theme among Bama fans is he hurt the team, but the only one of his teammates to speak.publicly about it didn't seem too hurt (this further angered some Bama fans) Kenny bell @TheKennyBell7 To da lil homie @_ALLWORLD24 don't let this and critics get to you learn from a mistake and move up just a minor setback son keep ur head up
I find this incomprehensible. If any other school had this problem it would be OK. Not Alabama because there is a reason we say we're the greatest champion in the history of NCAA CFB.
