He is going to lose his scholarship if he isn't careful. Nice guy just needs to straighten up.

My guess is, he declares for the draft this year.

We can only hope.
Calloway has played the best as WR.

4 suspensions in 3 years. He's going to declare. IMHO, he's not ready for the League and will have to make an attitude change to get picked up and stick.

Thompson looked decent in his place.

Florida's seniors to determine Demarcus Robinson's status
Sean O'Leary Dec 1, 2015 9:07 AM
Florida wide receiver Demarcus Robinson was suspended for Saturday's blowout loss to Florida State, and Gators coach Jim McElwain is leaving Robinson's playing status for the SEC Championship Game up to the team's seniors.

"I'm going to visit with the seniors," McElwain said. "They'll determine which direction we'll go."

Robinson was suspended for a violation of an unspecified team rule. It was his fourth suspension in three seasons.

"Look, he made a choice, OK. He made a choice," McElwain said. "You know what, our family needs to make this decision and those guys are the leaders of our family."

If the Gators allow Robinson to play, his production will be welcomed, as the junior has caught 47 passes for 505 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games this season.

Another failed drug test?

This time for sneaking out of the team hotel the night before the game.

Larry, what do you think of Mac letting the team decide the status ? It's bothersome to me

Most bigger programs do this, for various reasons.

FSU stays about 20 mi outside of Tally.

I kind of like the idea of the team deciding...

That's probably not what I would do. But I know what he's doing. The Herman Boone thing. Wants leaders of the team to be accountable for their team. But you and I know they ( the team) will let him back in.


I hope he gets back and plays good enough the next two games to make him think he's NFL ready and leaves.

Although more and more athletes are making "business decisions " in meaningless bowl games to have convenient injuries and sit out.

Seniors allowed him back in.

I like Mac's reasoning. He could have been fine with either decision so why not use it as an opportunity to teach the team a lesson about accountability.
