Mo Couch expected to know Thursday..

[LWSVOL]

What is going on with Michael Williams and Rihyad Jones?

they are working their way back. just not there yet.

 

[LWSVOL]

i'm wondering what is taking them so long for a decision on this too

there is no decision to be made at this juncture. up to UT and they won't make next move until money is repaid.. then they can negotiate with NCAA

 

[ChattanoogaVols]

Does anyone know if he's been allowed to continue practicing with the team during this indefinite suspension?

So, UT is in CYA mode then?
If so, smart move.

If that's the case, then if we take what the OP said as truth, that would mean UT isn't doing anything to get Mo back on the team and my guess is he won't play again for the program.

I've got a dollar. Anybody else want to help out here?

 

[Sudden Impact]

Bump? Is this pretty much dead.

 

[Aesius]

Highly doubt Mo will ever play at UT again. He's been out for 2 months. Would take him the rest of the season to get back in shape. Maybe he could play in a bowl game?

 

[cbbowlingmd]

Couch isn't coming back.

Thanks.....NCAA applying the rules randomly I am also glad that we handle this the way that we did.

Agree. We could have seen worse sanctions from the NCAA if we handled it differently. We don't need that as a program. We sacrificed Mo to save us from more stringent penalties.

Like in the military; you sacrifice a few soldiers to protect the majority of your troop. Had to be done.

I read this thread every Thursday lol:

 

[Tux]

I never counted on Mo coming back. The coaching staff has prepared likewise.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Just heard on the sports animal that the NCAA has declared Mo done for the year and that UT is appealing.

 

[utvolpj]

@Vol_Football: The NCAA has declared Maurice Couch permanently ineligible. UT will appeal.

 

[Sudden Impact]

After the appeal if denied again we should have him hit the road with a book deal and signing.

i wonder how much effort UT will put into the appeal

Are you F#cking serious? I agree that there are changes that need to be made, but my gracious. Equating these kids to slaves is pathetic. You are inadvertently disrespecting a massive amount of people with this post, including those that you are trying to stick up for.

He's good at that. He is the new union leader for the United Brotherhood of Underpaid NCAA Athletes.

We should insist that Bama vacate all of their wins and the championship from last year. See if Saban wants to go to bat for Mo too.
