If he grants him the release because of his dad, that means anytime a parent decides that they don't like the school. That they think they have the right to ask for their child to be removed from the University. Dooley is a lawyer. I say he has read many trials that are like this. What I haven't heard yet is that Bryce is over 18 years old. He is an adult in the eyes of the law.

Academically a parent cant be involved with the student at all. The same for the athletics IMO. These are people on the brink of becoming men. Not a toddler who needs to be spoon fed everything. His dad really needs to back off of Bryce and let him make a decision on his own and stop interfering and making the entire situation that much worse. His dad has butchered Bryce's name because of his own selfish desires. Bad parenting IMO.

Read the first page of this mess and that's about all I could stand. Bryce and daddy knew the deal when he signed his LOI. Now if they were promised something more (wink, wink) than just playing time from the kifster then shame on kif for the promise and shame on Camp Brown for being sleazy and expecting that crap or stupid and going for it. Rules are rules and CDD is well within his rights to handle this situation the way he has/is. Little boy Bryce and his daddy need to STFU, suck it up and play the hand that THEY have dealt themselves.. This is on them. They have made this situattion what it is... CDD inherited a turd if you ask me and personally I like the way he's flushing it...

GO BIG ORANGE....

This is not pee wee football where parents ask the coach for their little boy. This is big boy football. Dooley has to protect UT's interest and he does not want parents talking for their kids. Pretty simple to me.

No I don't think. This happens all the time. First one that comes to mind recently is Star Jackson from Alabama. Did not get a release from Saban. So Jackson transfers to Georgia State rather than sit out a year at a D1 school. Happens all the time and it does not hurt recruiting. If anything I see it helping our program. We only need people that want to play for UT...not a coach.

Brandon Warren is another example

He met have met with BB, but BB didn't ask for a transfer.. He may not have met with BB at all

It sounds like his dad was trying to do the same thing ad he did with his brothr at UM.. His dad decided he didn't want BB here so he called CDD and informed him that BB didn't want to come back (if his dad is even telling the truth & his dad even claimed that he talked to CDD)

I hate to say it because we always make jokes about his dad getting paid, but it honestly sounds like his dad wants to get paid or he won't let his kids play at a certain school.. Maybe Yaw Yaw & Kiff had a Reggie Bush type deal set up and now the Brown's aren't going to get paid, so the dad has decided he wants them close to home if he isn't get a little cash on the pocket

Part of me thinks it's funny that Dooley is sticking it to him, but the more rational part of me thinks we should just give him the release. He wants to go to school somewhere else ... that's cool. It's his prerogative. He really shouldn't be punished for that. Sure, he needs to be taught a lesson about respect and keeping your word, but it's not up to us to decide something that will greatly impact his life.

Same for Lamaison.

He should go to JUCO this season and enroll at K-State in January. I'm pretty sure Dooley can't do anything to stop him if he goes that route.

I don't see how you can make that connection at all. If I was bitter about kiffin leaving wouldn't I want BB punished for leaving too? I just think DD is making it more personal by not releasing him.

Thats where we disagree. If it was personal he would have let Nick L. go and kept BB. But thats not the case.

Brown's dad will not be happy--he already had bryce penciled in for the starting job next year.

too much he said she said. Life is not fair and there are consequences in life for everything you do, some pleasant, some not so pleasant. At what point in bbs life should he start "learning" responsibility and accountability? Should he follow albert haynesworth's current example of acting like a spoiled child, staying out of training camp, and showing up out of condition, and expecting the redskins to just roll over and keep paying him for being selfish? Or should he follow kiffin's example of messing with the titan's contracts and expect no "consequences", lol, who now finds himself and his organization in court. Not taking sides on any of these examples just pointing out that life is full of actions/reactions/consequences. I fully support dooley and trust his judgement. I first suspect dooley is looking out for ut's organization and not trying to set or break a precedent. As another poster said, he may very well be trying to help bryce get out from under bryces' dad's gun. Whether it's bryce or someone else, how about supporting the rules and trust the coaches for a change instead of being a bleeding heart liberal. I guess serving in the military for 21+ years does that to a person (me) where you think of duty, responsibility, honor, responsibility, leadership by example, commitment. Let the coaches do their job for goodness sake. Soapbox is now open.

The Brown's better start doing some serious calculating and start kissing some serious Tennessee butt....pronto. Sitting out a year could cost a lot of money. NFL money. If BB eventually proves to have NFL chops he will lose a year of his natural NFL playing years because NFL backs usually don't have such long careers. If he eventually proves to be worth $10 million a year in the NFL then he will by natures attrition lose one of those years sitting on a Kansas porch and speculating on what might have been in Tennessee.

Do you think that Bryce will even be in shape to play ... this would be pretty much two years and hardly no time on the field. Sitting out is one thing but its going to take a toll on the young mans body. Just hope K-State has an awesome trainer.

You calling someone else worthless is the equivalent of Roseanne Barr calling someone fat and ugly.
