It’s amazing when you take something away from someone that’s important. You hate to do it. You want him to be out there. But I think he understands. He truly understands that I’ve got to do what’s right every single day … He’s got to be much more consistent and accountable … What you just hate is (missing) the valuable reps for a position that needs every single rep this spring, those 15 valuable practices, that really hurts … You saw the inconsistency this year. You saw the dropped balls. He hasn’t been right. He hasn’t been the same, and you want that from him. We expect a lot from him and he knows that.”</p><div>

We only strung him along in case 7 of the 9 in front of him went somewhere else.

I smell Fat Albert Means all over. Hid did not drop us because of the 3-2 Auburn game it was because Croom would not make a deal.

What will happen now is he will actually "get it" and "learn a lesson" and become the best WR in SEC history.

If he played for us, he would not get it, and shoot someone.

but the Nafoom assumption is pot. I'd say that's probably a safe assumption. He's probably smoking too much, being late to meetings, skipping class, something along those lines. Probably just being a lazy pot-head if I had to guess, but I have no source on this one.

It's a good thing we're deep at WR for next year. Wait...

My post was a parody of several posts from Nafoom/Spirit last year about how Bumphis was 10th on UM's list of WRs and you were only stringing him along and he really didn't have a scholarship offer from UM. Of course we wanted Patterson, just like you wanted Bumphis.
