Yes I think we’d be ok with #3. It’s a tough sitch but they’ve had over a month to sort it out should be able to find a solution that doesn’t force these youngsters to sit indefinitely.
OT: AUBURN BASKETBALL
- Thread starter Denim Vest
- Start date
Not basketball obviously, but just wanted to highlight how our man Mike is out there getting answers. Sounds like he got in touch with Baby Kam's family and they're just as curious about his absence in games as we are.
Mike needs an invite to this board IMO.
I just like how Mike gets after it. You always here JG and Bmatt complain about how they can't write stories since Gus doesn't say anything and they can't talk to coordinators. Well Mike's like, fugg it, I'll just call up the kid's family and take that angle. Shrewd and a welcomed and fresh take.
What a powerhouse. Hoping he tracks down EJs family and demands answer on the young studs potential college destination.

@Drunk Uncle Bob actually sat next to Pettways father at the game vs lsu. He said he is still hurt and is not a fan of Gus. Bob didn’t want to bother him with questions.
So it was for medicinal purposes? Wow, OBBERN doesn't care about their student athuhletes well being I guess,
Prayers sent to @Virginia
Some interesting information from the boog board this morning.
Tater says that he expects Purifoy to suit up and play Thursday meaning he will be deemed eligible.
Our boy @jhead34382 then follows up with this regarding Wiley: "They’ve always known which players 1 and 2 were, I don’t understand why Bruce said what he said other than to try and distance himself from any decision that had to potentially be made. My understanding of the situation is with at least one of the players that there is minimal to no evidence that this player or his family ever got paid. Thus the lack of a suspension, and why I’m confident that Wiley plays the entire season. I don’t have enough info on Purifoy’s situation to comment, but I like sound of what JGT and @INSIDESOURCE23 are saying."
It's happening boys! If we can just get Wiley healthy, we will have our full roster available it sounds like.

omg. Joyous news. Sounds like AU compliance is just gonna go with the Chuck is a serial liar and made it all up defense. Nice.
oh now well @jhead34382 is a highly trusted epersona. Very encouraging stuff.
Sleuthing it appears the EJ ship may have sailed. Unfortunate but if that's the only damage from this saga I can live with it.
I'm not expecting Austin and Purifoy to play tomorrow.
I'm going to ban you for a week if you are wrong.
Let it be known that if you report as an insider and get the ish wrong, then there will be consequences.
It's coming from someone that texts and talks with Bruce but not saying that question was asked to Bruce. He's usually spot on. I hope he's wrong.
Insider showdown!!! (Austin doesn't count since he is hurt, so it all depends on if Purifoy plays or not)
The GREG appreciates your insight.
deer lowered at the insiders here on the GREG. Yoda says Refreshing It Is.
Yeah I'm in the same boat. Could be wrong but I doubt we see Purifoy. If we do that's a very good sign for the season.
The backlash against JGT if Purifoy sits out would be great, but let’s hope he’s right
Jhead knows his stuff. They have felt confident in Austin being ok from the start, Purifoy has always been the big question.
Damn. Lots of conflicting info coming out now. We’ll only know for sure tomorrow
I'm in a glass case of emotions. I'll flip out if they're ruled out for the year. That makes no sense whatsoever.
I find that hard to believe that they would make that determination. But we shall see
At least let us have Wiley, please
For my sanity I hope this isn't true. Would break my fragile heart.
They are currently practicing and Bruce is leaving right after to attend a Birmingham event.
You think this announcement, if what you heard is correct, comes after practice and before the event or at the event?
Well I trust the Ferg daddy. Would love nothing more than to see Mac put on a stroke show this season. He could still do it at the 5 while alternating between thunderous jams.
