Siouxman Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 http://www.startribune.com/512/story/721699.html According to the Star-Tribune, Briggs has been suspended for three games. No reason given. Their first three games are non-conference against Maine and Wayne State. Could be an opportunity for Frazee, if he is up to it.

redwing77 Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Something irks me about this suspension... 3 game suspensions in every other league are consecutive (sp?). According to what I read, Briggs is suspended for one game vs. Maine and both games vs. Wayne State. I think it's really neat that Lucia has the "Select-a-suspension" option for his team. Makes planning easier. For example, if Lucia decides that Briggs will start Fridays and Frazee starts on Saturdays, why stop at a 3 game suspension? Lucia could "suspend" Briggs for every Saturday's game for the rest of the season and call it a "team suspension." This suspension may be for legit reasons but it is being enforced questionably, IMO.

They only play Maine once as it is the Hall of fame game so the suspension is consecutive games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's what those 4 extra years of undergrad taught ya, eh? Maybe I should investigate that. Oh well, so I'm wrong. At least this will be Frazee's chance to put up or shut up. Wayne State will be nothing to the Gophers (They aren't even as talented as Alaska ALaska Alaska Nanooks or whatever ) so I doubt we'll see much there. It all comes down to Oct. 6.

Sioux-per Villain Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 perhaps Briggs has ties to Congressman Foley.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sioux_Hab-it Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 What amazes me is that within close to a week of Briggs being named a Captain he would receive a suspension for a team violation. More Goofy controversy to start another season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejm Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I read that the "issue" for which Briggs was suspended is not something which occured recently. Which adds even more mystery to his being named captain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slap Shot Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I read that the "issue" for which Briggs was suspended is not something which occured recently. Which adds even more mystery to his being named captain. Kids make mistakes, including those called upon to be team leaders. This has been in the making for some time but it's just now being published. I don't see this as a 'conflict of interest' or whatever one wants to call it at all. btw red - I think you're the only one that would not only try to nitpick an actual suspension but still get it wrong in the process.
