Has he been suspended? Saban made him apologize in writing to Pinkel & Mizzou RB.

There is a YouTube video showing him getting owned by the mizzou oline on the next two plays. They were not happy with him.

Apparently he wrote an apology letter and that elementary crap is all Mr. Saban needs to write it off. The SEC needs to suspend him because we all know Saban won't do crap.

that was completely uncalled for and could have seriously injured that player. it was malicious as hell. he needs to be suspended. if the ncaa stands for anything they should suspend him for 3 games and no less. it borders on intent to harm outside the context of football.

Ya he got pancaked big time on the next two plays. Hope he's suspended.

Starts at 1:02 here.

No doubt he should be suspended. There is no reason for this type of BS.

Saban had him send an e-mail apology.

Nothing to see there now.

Move on.

No harm done.

Oh..but..according to Saban, the no huddle offense should be banned as a matter of player safety.

He should be suspended but nothing will happen. Book it. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens again.

I guess you're in for a surprise. You won't see it again and you sure as hell won't see it from Fanning. I can't remember ever seeing a Bama player make a "tackle" like that since Saban has been there.

Given the suspensions handed down from the SEC office already this year, you can probably expect to see a similar one game suspension for Fanning as well.

Is that you Harvey?

I think this might be a copy of the letter LaMichael sent to the Mizzou kid:

That was very big of him.

What Fanning did was absolutely wrong but I also hope that Mizzou players have taken this as a lesson to shut their yaps.

I'm kind of surprised we don't see that more often. Looking at the youtube video I thought the dirtier play was the Mizzou OLine man two plays later giving him a forearm after his helmet came off.

He also didn't make the trip to Tennessee
