Haha y'all are ridiculous. The official word is that Fields is still suspended. When Pachall was arrested and suspended last year, GP originally said he would still suit up and stand on the sidelines so that he couldn't hide and would have to be with the teammates that he let down and face the torture of being dressed but not being able to help the team on the field. He later decided to keep Pachall away from the game completely because it would've been too big of a distraction in that particular situation, but this could very well be a part of the punishment for Fields.

The only way I see Fields playing is if this suspension was in fact put in place by the university rather than GP, and Fields won an appeal. I don't see how this is hypocritical in any way. All GP said was that he wouldn't ever put a player suspension up for a team vote because that wouldn't teach lessons. He's right. But if Fields was wrongfully suspended by the school, then there is no reason he shouldn't play. And for all of you comparing the Fields situation to Hill's, well, y'all are pretty friggin dumb. Hill has been arrested and convicted of two crimes. Fields apparently had a beer in his dorm room. Apples and oranges.

This news that Fields will suit up is about the same as Miles saying today that Hill will be traveling with the team. The fact remains that neither player is likely to play a down.
