Amir Mitchell and Shelton Johnson suspended

[wheels002]

Harbaugh said that 2 of the 3 players missing from the team photo are suspended. But people are saying its not Kareem Walker. He was in some trouble but they worked it out. This sucks. I really expected an instant impact from Mitchell. Sounds like they will both be red shirting and have to earn their way out of the doghouse.

Saw this on my facebook newsfeed earlier. Sounds like the school confirmed which 2 it was after Jim spazzed on his presser.

I don't think either would get serious playing time anyway, but it's disappointing nonetheless. I'm hoping it wasn't anything serious, maybe late for multiple practices or something similar.

I'm guessing weed.

I'm guessing weed.

I'm guessing stupidity. What's with these kids being in the .00000000000000001 percentage of the population and still making idiotic decisions that get them suspended?

no big deal. with 80+ young meatheads on the roster any college team is bound to have some disciplinary issues. what matters is how they deal with it.

Well, Mitchell is from New Jersey.

Better now as kids that just arrived on campus and like MC pointed out, when you get that many jocks together ...with nothing to do but practice, lift weights and sit around South Quad, you get bored.

Discipline those punks and make it a sub-topic for John U Bacon's upcoming book on the 2016-17 National Title run under Harbaugh in year #2.

I would have been pretty surprised if Mitchell didn't redshirt anyway. Don't know a ton about Johnson, but it seemed like he was too much of a tweener to make an impact at this point in his career. Hopefully they take the year to get their heads on straight and continue to work at their craft. They do both bring plenty of athleticism to the table.

Here's a primer in addressing the press. And then there's the radio interview hang-up this week. See to your own house. And if you call what JH did as "spazzing" you need to get out more.

My favorite Harbaugh media moment was when he had just coached Stanford to a huge win in the Orange Bowl with Andrew Luck having had a career game ...Michele Tafoya shoves the mic in Harbaugh's face and asks about the Michigan job (which he'd already declined to Ross and Brandon, we learned later) ...

The number Hoke gave was 8-10 "knuckleheads" out of 115 guys.

Well we know if it were truly a serious issue - legal/criminal matter - Harbaugh would have outright dismissed them.

Freshman WR Ahmir Mitchell had been suspended for undisclosed reasons indefinitely, now plans to transfer elsewhere

Great start to his college career. Hopefully he gets himself on track elsewhere.

I wonder if we'll ever find out what he did. It had to have been embarrassing because I can't think of any other reason he'd transfer already.

I'm thinking it had to be significant. He was suspended for the year, including practice.

Rumor is he was caught smoking weed. Then he was caught being with other people smoking weed. He also loves to post party pictures on instagram and snapchat was advised multiple times to stop which he ignored. He was put on suspension and told that he would redshirt this year and would have to earn his way out of the doghouse but he has now chosen to transfer.

Is Shelton Johnson involved in that rumor?

Frees up another scholly, so we're good. After this recruiting cycle we will be stacked at receiver, anyways. He would have been good one. He'll get his chance somewhere else, if he grows up.

I thought I saw something yesterday about a walk on getting a scholarship.
