You know, the one thing being missed here... Coker having the cojones to actually suspend some players for a BIG game. We all know that Bowden would not have done that. Unless the game was some tiny game. It was a few years ago that he had one of his start LB's play in the UM game and then "serve the suspension" the NEXT game. What a joke.
Anyway, I am really impressed Coker is sticking to his guns. Especially with all the fire he is under and the hot seat he is on...
About the game, None of the players missing are the whole team, so I don't think they will be the difference. IF UM is to win, their Oline needs to play great. IF they do and Wright does not look "wrong" (as quoted above) then UM should win the game.
But that is TWO BIG 'IFs'. Which is why I am really looking forward to watching the game. Besides, I love watching the two teams beat up each other!

Moss' missed assignment
Senior running back Tyrone Moss said his suspension for the Miami Hurricanes' season opener against rival Florida State stems from a missed study hall in January.
Hurricanes head coach Larry Coker said Tuesday that team policy violations were the reason why Moss, senior wide receiver Ryan Moore, junior linebacker James Bryant and junior wide receiver Rashaun Jones were suspended for the Sept. 4 game against the Seminoles.
Moss said complications from his mid-November knee surgery prevented him from attending his study hall in January. Despite his condition, he was informed of his impending suspension just a few weeks ago.
Moss did not elaborate on the situations of the other suspended Hurricanes, but he did say there was no "incident" or "action" involving all four players to warrant punishment.
"Things were bad at that time [last January]," Moss said. "I was concerned with my knee … a blood clot developed after the surgery, so I was dealing with a lot of things back then and just lost my focus. " was even still thinking about declaring for the NFL [draft], but after talking to coach Coker, I rebounded and came back to school and started going to my classes again."

Coker addresses Willie, Ryan and more
Coach Larry Coker addressed several areas of his team today. Here's what he was talking about:
Q: With all the off-season distractions, is that something you're going to talk to your players about -- maybe trying to limit the distractions going into the season?
Coker: Well, we'll definitely do that. But that's not unique. There are always distractions. Lou Holtz had a statement that there are going to be three bad things happen to our football team -- `I don't know what they are, I don't know when it'll happen. There are three bad things that will happen. Now it's how you handle it that makes your success.' We always talk about these things at the start of the year -- don't be a distraction, do the right things at the right time. That'll limit a lot of those things. But there will be some issues that come up. There always are. But we will address them.
Q: Is there an update with Willie Williams in terms of him approaching you about a possible return to Miami?
Coker: No, there really hasn't been an update. I wish there were, to be quite honest. No, there hasn't been an update.
Q: Players have been quoted saying they would rather not have him back even if he wants to return. Do you take that into account when you make a decision?
Coker: That decision doesn't have to be made because it's not out there for me to make right now. I'll take everything into account if a decision needs to be made. It's going to be my decision as head coach. It won't be made by the players.
Q: Has any determination been made yet about if Ryan Moore will sit out Game 1?
Coker: No, there hasn't been. I'll discuss that with Ryan and his family and then we'll make a decision.

Must not have been starters then. BC He is on record as saying "There are other ways to discipline players". However, those players are almost ALWAYS the starters or real contributors to FSU. So don't give me that. I'll have to go look it up, but it was only a few years ago he did not suspend one of his starting LB's for the UM game, instead playing him and then choosing to suspend him for the next game (which was a game FSU could have played their walk-ons and still won.)Nappy Roots said:

not THAT big of a loss, but still, FSU and Miami always play down to the last second, so any advantage is big for either team, and this is definitely an advantage for FSU, regardless of how talented miami is at RB or WR.
Oboy said:
our starting Gaurd, our starting KR, our starting OLB, and our WR that got playing time at KR/PR/WR. In the last few years we've suspended big time players for bowl games...Chris Rix(sugar bowl), Darnell Dockett(sugar bowl), Snoop Minnis(national championship), Pete Warrick(national championship)....so dont give me that

Obviously you are misguided. Your team had already lost 3 games and thus was not in contention for the National Championship.Nappy Roots said:
The point I was referring to was actually last years UM game...
BOTH LBs had arrests in the offseason! However, silly me they were only "misdemeanors". What a joke.
http://www.fanblogs.com/florida_state/005342.php
Even some people posted at the bottom of this page the same concept.
So basically my point in the whole matter was that Coker at least has the guts to stick to his discipline even though he is in serious danger of losing his job. I was very impressed with that. I am done arguing about FSU. This was all about how Coker stuck to his guns. Even though it very well could cost them the game.
Edit: sorry to have to post a BLOG, but it was that or another MB... seems most big news websites remove articles that are over a year old. Which this is right over.

Kind of like Antrel Rolle a couple years ago, who was arrested in the offseason, but Coker still chose to play him in the 1st game, huh!!
We've had 2 WR's (Fred Rouse & Kenny O'Neal) kicked off the team this offseason for breaking team rules. Not just suspended, KICKED OFF, so lay off the 'Noles and don't be looking for excuses ahead of time.
NorthFloridaFin said:
agreed and i think we also kicked an o-linemen off the team too. and rouse was supposed to be the next moss...... dumb SOB. if FSU could keep thier players on the field consistently we would be sooo much better but some1 always has to get suspended each year. wutever were gonna woop um either way
