No one should be getting suspended period, these kids have to realize that no one will be immune to suspension. At least its the first game, I hope the rest of the team makes a mental note for the remainder of the season.
Prince Hall and Keith Brown Suspended

Re: Keith Brown & Prince Hall suspended
Mustang, maybe we should let the courts determine their respective cases first and then let Coach do his job.
Kind of been news about Hall for a while but I had not heard anything about Brown. However, I had heard Hall's was three games. I hope it is only one.
I guess it has just taken longer for some guys than others to adjust to the new regime. Things were far too lax with Shula & Co., and a few guys are probably still waiting for the ice cream truck to roll by.
I don't know if we should read too much into these suspensions either. For all we know they could be for academic reasons (not to belittle that, but it's not criminal). In addition, they may relate to an older incident and the players did not do what CNS expected of them, so they are suspended. The players involved in the recent incidents likely still have time to do what CNS asked of them and must let the judicial system aspect play out.
prince hall went home to cali and was there all summer. he didnt even come back to ttown for summer session 2..which is a shocker to say the least. the defensive qb in hall being home the entire summer makes me wonder about his dedication. so rolando passed him in practice pretty easily this fallon the depth chart

Jess said in his team breakdown not long ago that McClain, Prince Hall and Mustin would all play a lot. If Prince Hall had not been suspended for Saturday's game, we still needed him for depth IMHO.
We know Hall can play. He was the third leading tackler on the team last year. McClain will be an All-American before he leaves Alabama and will play in the NFL. Mustin appears to be very solid. The fact that Prince has not been listed as a starter may be because he has not picked the defense up as quickly as some of the others. I am only speculating when I say this, but the kid is a player.
I dont think it is a dedication thing, he just gets very home sick.
Some things are more important than football. But at this level, he needs decide whether he can stay during the summer and do the things he needs to do to be a good teammate or maybe play closer to home.

Whoa, guys, easy. I'm on your team.:eek2:
I wasn't there when the announcement was made. I do appreciate the fact that it was passed on here on this site--thank you all for telling the rest of us. I'm not attemting to cast doubts on anyone's veracity. I just like to read these things--sorta like wanting to see the T.V. screen, even though someone's telling you all about it.
why don't we just take a deep breath and let things shake out. Things have a way of working out given time.If one game suspension wakes them up that'll be good.
Gasp. Surely you jest. More important than Alabama Football.
Seriously, when you have a Coach that is as ate up with football as Nick Saban, you better do everything you can to pick up what he is teaching you. He expects 100% dedication from not only his players, but his staff as well. BTW, he would probably make the fans run gassers if he could get away with it.
Bottom line, if you get run over by his machine, so be it. He will find somebody else that can keep up.
Yeah there was an article today in one of the papers on al.com about that. It even applies to the secretaries and everyone in the football department. When he gets recruiting really going it will become very apparent; either you do it his way or there will be someone younger and hungrier behind you that will.
I am pretty good friends with several former LSU players that played under Coach Saban. They said it was nothing for him to just twist off at one of his assistants if that coach wasn't running a drill correctly or pushing the players hard enough. They told me that they really felt sorry sometimes for his staff because he really rode them hard, harder than the players. I guess that's why he had alot of turnover with those guys in BR.
On a sidenote, I hope the NFL made him more mellow, because I actually like his staff right now.
some folks had too easy of a go at it when CMS was around. Some aren't adjusting well to discipline.
