why the same coach who kicked kyle anderson off the team basically the next day for getting in a bar fight, reinstates a suspended player because he has his charge REDUCED? I mean of course im happy he's not facing felony charges, but the kid has yet to even face trial, and he's already back on the team. If that's not blatant favoritism, i dont know what is.

what kind of message does that send? "you can get charged with any crime and still play, until you get convicted. but if it's a felony, you have to be convicted first."

and if anything, IMO his being on the team now will undermine the confidence and unity that's been built up behind JL so far, and be a distraction while his trial goes on. seems ridiculous to me, I dont care who the better qb is

ETA "you can get charged with a crime and still play, if you're an important player...

the message it send is: If you're a good/integral player, you have a little leeway. If you aren't as important to the team, you don't.

This is true for every player at every level of football, whether on the field or not.

Guys that aren't as good or integral to the team have less wiggle room. This is true in high school, college, and the NFL.

Please show me a link showing Kyle was ever in trouble and/or arrested before the incident that got him kicked off.

Your opinion sucks IMO. The players are just plain happy to be reunited and the only divisions are in the corner of your harebrained post.

Coach Miles runs the team, not you. He dismissed Ryan Perrilloux from the team when he absolutely needed to have him just to send a message to the rest of the team that he doesn't play favorites. He's not playing favorites now. Only Coach Miles and Kyle Anderson know why Kyle Anderson was kicked off the team (ironically from the same class as Ryan Perrilloux). So, stop trying to force an analogy that is completely twisted. When was Kyle Anderson dismissed from the team? Like five years ago?

I would like to see Jordan in a few plays just to ensure that his career with the Tigers will be over at the end of the season. No chance at redshirt, etc.

what did he do before that? i wasnt aware of anything. and regardless, he was dismissed immediately following his arrest. if you're looking at this objectively, whether or not you like JJ or JL under center shouldnt change the fact that reinstating him now makes no sense

How? JJ wasnt locked up in a cell this whole time. He prob still does everything with his teammates. I wouldnt be surprised if he and Lee communicate. theve been practicing together for a long time.

Not just in football, but true in life as well. It may suck, but that's the way it is.

Thats the biggest part of this- the innocent until proven guilty approach was not followed with Kyle Anderson.

Arrested, then gone.

Not arrested, charged, convicted, then gone.

Kyle's arse got processed. Maybe he sucked and the coaches didn't think he'd contribute to it was a way to rid themselves of him.

We don't know the specifics as to why one is kicked off and one isn't. Maybe Kyle was a bad seed or didn't have a good attitude. Maybe players that don't see the field have to be more disciplined abiding by rules than players that do get more playing time. What if the coaches had determined Kyle was taking a scholarship away that could be given to a recruit with more promise? All things to take into consideration IMO. Should a recruit stay on scholarship if he isn't good enough?
