On another thread it says Smith missed the scrimmage due to the flu. So maybe he isn’t so weak after all.

Sometimes we, as he older generation deem these generation weak. So, we all jump to conclusions, if he finds it hard here at Texas at the next level or at a private job, he will find difficult. I think a lot of people jump to conclusions, especially now with money. Things happen we move on, i dont these kids so I will not judge. Allow this to play out, he doesnt want to be here that's his decision. At the same time you have to cut away bad things to prosper.

I’m simply willing to give a college kid the benefit of the doubt at this stage.

I didn’t know telling your coach you were going to miss a practice was a contract violation.

“Would be” suggests he got permission to miss or at least gave advance notice. That isn’t skipping.

Hand raised for being so sensitive and having feelings on a sport site. I won’t apologize for that. Sports can be very personal. I suspect they are for Smith. I have no idea what triggered his actions and will never know all the details. For now I won’t have an opinion given that limited information. As a younger dude, I’m not sure that I would have been so reserved.

Blocked another user today.

Perhaps the offense was vaccinated? 🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏼‍♂️

This.

I'd love to be positive, but these things generally and the way you think they will. It's a bummer he had such a great ball game and seemed like such a well-liked player from afar. That being said something like this happened once a quarter with J'covan Brown and we never kicked him off the basketball team so maybe there's hope 😂

You aren’t making any sense. You’re just saying words to try and discredit and ridicule others comments.

The mods haven’t specialized anything that I’ve seen, and let’s not play dumb here we know sources are vary from parents, staff members, former staff members, former players hell maybe even ball boys. And your right about money, members pay for this sight and you will never make everyone happy and once again I don’t agree with the ones dogging the young man but to each is their own.

Not sure that’s what I said but when I comment, it’s open for all to see, comment and interpret. You are entitled to feel any way you want. Normal comprehension would say I was inclusive of your stance and your opposition but again, when commenting on posts it’s open for all interpretation and perspectives.

Y’all are so sensitive but try to project that on others. Who’s riled up? I’m enjoying 1792 on a big rock with my lovely wife. Feelings aren’t ever part of a sports site.

So they can have opinions but are exempt from opinions on their comments? Respect of others isn’t about feelings but thanks.

I’m not sure but it looks like he was in attendance today based on his account

That’s true, but it’s also true an off hand comment on a message board shouldn’t rile you up so much. I made it plain that my opinion was based on undetermined facts, and yall acted like I was calling him a scumbag.

It’s useless speculation. If we had a mature site, I might agree. We don’t. What value was gained from this? We might have a player leave because they’re unhappy? Awesome, let’s dog him cause, money…

No, he's clarifying for those that have reading comprehension issues.

There are no facts. Thats the point. Breaking a contract doesn’t mean someone lacks character as a fact nor does it color the entirety of the person. Without knowing the causes, I can’t speak to it but a person can make a poor decision in the heat of the moment and it not be fully representative of their character. A good rule of thumb is if the gtfo poster supports you, you’re on the wrong side of things. I unblocked him thinking he had turned a corner at this site but he just can’t help himself.

To be candid, we have disagreed before and you know what, shucks. That’s life!

Thank you. I’m getting flamed for having an opinion on a 20 year old.

Gerry just stirring the thread

Nothing wrong with anything said by Mods, or members. This site exists for this very reason. We pay to comment. We pay for insider information. Check your feelings at the door. As long as no one is slamming each other in vulgar inappropriate ways, they are entitled to their opinion. If you disagree, discuss with the person you disagree with. Commenting on someone’s opinion is no better or worse than the person’s original comment. If you don’t like that people have opinions, stay off the board. I don’t agree with everything said by everyone but I choose to read, choose to comment.

Seems like Coach Boom is going to allocate playing time to those players who can execute his defense consistently. If you can’t or won’t do that, your innate talent (however great) will not be enough by itself to get you on the field. Muschamp will put you in a position to succeed given your skill set, but you still must execute.
