Alcoa Brian Sommer and two others suspended

[Freak]

Alcoa High School football coach Gary Rankin has suspended seniors Brian Sommer, Troy Hodge and Josh Henry for at least the first half of Friday night’s game at Spring Hill.

Ok, so it's only for a half.

Sommer has been offered scholarships by Tennessee, Alabama, Colorado, South Carolina and informally by Kentucky. Last season, he had nine interceptions and caught 33 passes for 416 yards and five touchdowns.

"I don't think he's been playing well," said Rankin. "It's pretty obvious. It doesn't take a coach to look at the Maryville game and understand that he shouldn't even have been out on the field with some of those great players. He's been going downhill for a while. Apparently, he's having some problems, and it was showing in his play."

Sommer could have those offers pulled considering not only his arrest and him not playing this season, but also his coach, who is one of the most repected in the south, calling out his play and focus.

alot of schools wont take a kid with a record coming in. He wont be going to the major schools he was in my opinion.

I was going to say Louisville, but Petrino left, so I don't what school will take a chance on him.

West Virginia loves head cases. They will take a shot with anyone.

depends on how bad our WR's look this season. We could room him with Coker..
