Another one of Fulmer's upstanding recruits with questionable character. Giles wouldn't have lasted very long under Lane. He would have been given walking papers along with Warren. We don't need these thugs on this team now or in the future.
Go Vols !!!

He missed too many classes, big f'ing deal. It's not like he was caught snorting cocaine.

Its all about whether or not the player buys in. The reason we have great discipline this year is the players bought in to Kiffin system, on and off the field. They believe there are going to be conquences, and respect that.

Kiffin has done a pretty damn good job of making sure guys get to class, seeing as how he and O go by and make sure they are there

Definitely failing his classes. As Major Wingate proved, you can fail multiple drug tests and still play.

Sounds like a pretty big deal to me - he is there to go to school and get an education so he can get a decent job after his CFB career.

After you fail the fourth, you're done.

Missing class is a big deal because the SEC has a class attendence policy. If he doesn't make grades, then he would be ineligible next season.

Exactly. He can't get a good job pumping gas if he continues to skip class...

WoW! Missing class, choking the chicken, and drugs. Really sounds like the role model. Thug with a capital T!

Considering that Vinson is still on the team... there's probably a good chance it wouldn't have.

I don't know exactly how they're managing it but somehow they are. Could be they are able to keep them focused better than many staffs?

Nonetheless, Giles is not unlike some of UT's players who have not gotten into trouble.

this is too funny. when they got giles he was a great kid and gonna be all world at usc. they said bryce brown was a joke and we would have our hands full with him and probably get probation. now that giles gets suspended he hasnt done much anyway and the suspension was too harsh. typical carolina.

Carolina also had an OL leave the team. The Carolina fans are saying 'I thought we were a new Carolina"
