Actually it hasn't been answered. Last time it was said he missed breakfast along with two others.

This time, nobody knows.

The rumor/thought was that he was sitting (at least partially) for getting a personal foul in the USF game, but again, that was people guessing. I don't think anyone has said for sure.

They said he "was banged up" on ESPN3.

Not buying that

They did, but they were incorrect:

Golden mentioned a couple of weeks ago that guys don't get suspended for one incident. He said it's only after a series of things.
 
He didn't get suspended for just committing a personal foul. At the very least, he was told you do one more "thing" and you're suspended again, meaning he's hit the point where he had already done a bunch of cr@p. Golden said you don't get suspended for one thing (unless, I assume it's rape or something along those lines). I have a hard time believing he was suspended for a personal foul, but I would believe it if someone told me he mouthed off to coaches who benched him after getting the personal foul, either during the game or in practice the next week.

As for missing the UVA game, people keep saying "team breakfast" but Golden said "team meeting." Now, there is a chance the breakfast served as a team meeting, but I have a hard time believing he just missed the morning cheerios and missed a game for it. Now, also, again, this could have been the 9th "thing" he missed or something like that, and it just happened to be a team breakfast.

Point? He's being suspended for a pattern of behavior, but a lot of people are focusing on the one event that is either being reported as the reason, or people are guessing is the reason. Fact is, there isn't a reason, there are reasons.

Glad golden is making an example to the guys. No matter how good you are (cause we all know what a stud on the field he is) you do what you gotta do away from the saturday night lights.
 
I don't know what's so fking hard about doing what the coaches ask of you and keeping your nose clean. I did it when I played college ball and unlike me this kid has the potential to make millions

I don't think anyone was thinking he got suspended solely b/c of a personal foul, but rather that it was the tipping point if you will. Thank you for expanding on it though.

no, based on some posters' comments, they do think he got suspended for that.
 
IMO he's going nowhere and will suit up in Orange n Green next yr, despite what's been said around here (other threads). Can't imagine him going fcs with his talent and our depth chart
