Thomas Davis is no longer on the team and there could be at least one more.

FWIW, he is still on the roster at AppStateSports.com.

I do agree with this general sentiment. But it is odd that guys that have been here for some time, started, played well, were team leaders, never caused issues but now are suddenly such a bad seed that they are kicked off a team in mid season. Shawn Collins and Thomas Davis never seemed like bad apples, until they were kicked off.

It's a little early to be hitting the nattys. ;-)
If they’re going to score everytime they have the ball, does it matter if they start at the 25 or 50? Also, if just 1 or 2 onsides kicks gets recovered, it could result in a 28 point swing.

Or could be...... that past coaches didn't discipline well and allowed shenanigans... I mean we kept a helmet swinger on the team.

It was obvious at the time. Someone could have been permanently injured.

Agreed. Just meant to say that looking back on it, it was a clear sign discipline was not a core value of that years team.

Our DL could certainly use his talents about now instead of Tulane. Though, perhaps not his antics.

No...not at all...nope. Its one thing to have a fight in practice or exchange words.... its another to use a weapon on another player. Glad he's gone.

Didn't say he should be here, but his talent would be helpful especially as we seem to be losing DL left and right.

I do not believe Coach DLo is doing this is a silo. He has a DC that is a former App. St. player and a damn good one. He knows the standard. I trust the coaching staff.

He knows what is expected. I trust they are not doing it just because they feel like it. Especially with the injuries. I trust them to bring it back. Especially with DJ in the mix.
