I agree with you Jeremy, especially in a depleted WR core. However if he can't keep his nose clean then he's obviously not somebody we need. It has been said many times about Mike Taylor, if you can't be disciplined in your personal life you probably won't be disciplined on the field/court. It's always been his decision whether or not he wants to be a part of the team and he obviously hasn't taken that seriously.

It's a loss, but I simply can't call a guy that barely played a year ago a "big loss".

I completely agree that I love the coaching staff's discipline and atitude when it comes to legal issues. If he did the things, he should be out of here, no question.

My comments were geared towards the general atitude of losing him as a player not being a big deal. I want him gone if he can't keep his nose clean, but that doesn't take away from the fact that a loss is a loss.

He may not have racked up the stats last year but his presence in practice, his ability to give our defense one more speedy offensive option to practice against, his ability to step in if we need him on game-day all make him valuable to the team. True there are players that may be harder to live without, but all are needed for a program that is really trying to get some traction and move in the right direction for once.

I wonder why Chiz allowed Wallace Franklin to be in the Media Guide and not JJ Bass?

It wouldn't be a BIG loss. I would love to have him especially with depth and injuries. BUT....The guy got murdered of the line. The DB would check him and he flew back 5 yards. I would think Sed Johnson would be worth 2 WF IMO>
