I know. It's just from a players perspective it's such bullshite that their never going to follow it anyway. Then theirs ones that are smart enough to beat the test. Just stupid rule all around.

Now if their given advanced notice on it and still fail...their not to bright lol

How does one have a grade issue 4 days into the semester?

Wouldn't this at least be old news by now?

lots do though and the school doesn't test them...not even the ones with a free ride. They should test EVERYONE on scholarship then. How about random test for every student? That shite wouldn't fly right? No sir.


I could support this.

"If" he failed ONE drug test...I believe there is no loss of games, but that doesn't mean Les can't send his own message by not starting the kid and making him realize there are consequences when you break the rules. If this is the case, hopefully it's the wakeup call he needs. Super talent...whatever the issue is, it's time for him to grow up.

awesome. We need his swagger and physicality. Our secondary will have to make this defense go.

Hell... We'll need 20 cornerbacks just for aTm.

But against Wisconsin...we'll be ok.

Not sure what the rules are on how many. Whether it was one, two or more failed tests

So it's not grades because school just started... And he wasn't arrested because that would be public knowledge... But he is suspended....

Let's put two and two together people.

Believe it or not, those grades count to. If Robinson failed some classes in the spring and it resulted in him not having enough hours or high enough GPA for the year he would have to sit out the whole year, ala Jordan Allen and Taj Jones two years ago.

Summer intersession courses can be factored into your Spring grades, hence why it's possible he did miss some football practices bc he had to take intersession classes (which are 3 1/2 hours, 6 days a week (per class), for 3 weeks) to get the required hours\gpa needed.

Him missing practices could have resulted in him playing with the 2's in practice and being in Miles dog house.

This is a very plausible and highly likely story, especially since we have known he has had grade issues since he got here (with the NCAA clearinghouse in the beginning of his freshman year) and it was reported during the Spring he was having grade issues.



I'm not saying I know anything about the situation, but for all of you saying "OMG SCHOOL JUST STARTED THAT's NOT POSSIBLE" obviously don't know what the frick you are talking about bc grades that occur in the Spring and Summer effect if these kids get to play as well.

Fall grades are probably the least relevant bc a kid could be failing all year and still play until the semester ends, which is after the season and before the bowl games. This is why some players have to sit out for bowl games.

I never said that. He took advantage by getting all the reps. It's not hard to comprehend. In fact, in every other thread I've said this, I have stated RR was the better CB, and would get the spot back.
