Has anyone seen a report or heard anything about Ricky
during his suspendtion(sp?)has he gained weight,still

You gotta think Saban told him to lay low, until the time is right.

I think he can't speak with reporters during suspension. I'm not sure though.

As long as he's training and ready to kick a$s when he gets back I don't care.

I believe I heard the Fox sport casters say he works out at the facility, goes to team meetings... he just can't actually go out with the team and practice...


So he's staying in playing shape, Saban and the coaching staff are on top of it...

He may have a little fall off as far a chemistry with the O-line, but that will take no time to get back in check...

as for him bulking up or maintaning at 215.. that I don't know and would like to get an answer on that as well.

Not really...there've been several stories about him in Miami media online, and at least one that was posted here.

The only thing I have heard is that he puts his pads on and goes through the same training routine the other RB's go through. He has to do it after the team is done practicing and uses a personnel trainer because he cannot use any of the coaching staff. No word on his weight and sorry, no link.

Did I hear the announcers during the game talk about how they have created some sort of gauntlet he has to run through that simulates tacklers grabbing him and trying to strip the ball? I think they said he is running through everything the team does right after they do it.

under NFL suspension, Ricky is allowed to work out with a team manager and the other day it was said that hes been working out everyday, just as hard as they are working out in team practices

He has been training everyday after the team goes inside with a personal trainer that takes him through the exact same drills the other RB's went thru during practice. This is legal according to the NFL. I believe it was said on the 60 minutes section on him.

Why wouldnt Ricky lay low..... considering his personality its kind of like a reward other than a punishment.

He's doing everything asked of him... Like he did before he left.

I don't understand why people would assume he would lose his work ethic. Its not like he's cranking heroin.

We should all be very excited about his return.. And expect him to be around a few more years.. Saban is Rickys type of coach!

I can confrim this, I heard it also....he is training at the Dolphins facility but only after the team leaves

Only thing I worry about with Ricky is will his drop in weight lead to injuries down the road? Other than that I feel that Ricky is going to be better than he ever was...
