That is an incredibly extreme measure for a first-time offender. I don't condone Doster's behavior by any means, and even support a more lengthy punishment than just 1-3 games, perhaps half a season. To punish a kid to this magnitude without prior discipline problems (that we are aware of)is extreme.<BR/><BR/>I agree with Jason, this season is all about Nickson. If he steps up and shows us his talent from his sophomore campaign, the loss of all of last year's talent will be lessened. But it's on his shoulders and he needs to step up.Stanimalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06068492073488859014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640778288989151924.post-71164108870322053532008-08-05T11:03:00.000-05:002008-08-05T11:03:00.000-05:00There really is nothing more important to '08 success than Nickson. He will be the starter, and it will be on his shoulders. I feel good about that, because nothing is more dangerous than someone with something to prove.Jasonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01596964942348981811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640778288989151924.post-32978383326108160512008-08-05T10:56:00.000-05:002008-08-05T10:56:00.000-05:00Great post guys. I am super pumped about this year. I think this is going to be a key year for the future of Vandy football. We are putting together an excellent recruiting class, we have several key guys emerging on the field and I think both DJ and Reshard will be playing in the NFL next year. DJ has a real chance to be a 1st round pick and not many college programs put players in the 1st round two years in a row. Put that with a bounce back year from Nickson and I think we have a shot at a bowl game.Douglas Jameshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09239502832772753923noreply@blogger.com
