Tom142 Posted January 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 Was he kicked off the team for the incident with the radio being too loud and him and the cop exchanged some words? 825511106[/snapback] I think that the final straw came when he failed a drug test and refused to take another. I'm not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Posted January 8, 2005 Report Share Posted January 8, 2005 I feel a lot better now that Saban is out of Baton Rouge. We should be loaded, assuming the QBs progress like our expectations are assuming they will. Secondary will struggle, but I've heard that same thing for the last 7 years at least. We just have to keep the attitudes in check and we should do just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did he get kicked off the team for next year too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple & Gold Standard Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 James Banks is gone and won't be back...He failed a drug test and wouldn't take another so he got kicked off....He was given alot of chances in his career with the Vols and blew it....He tried to enroll with UTC, but after alot of discussion and also some dissent among the boosters at UTC, he wasn't allowed to enroll at UTC...I heard he might have a chance at Murray State,but I'm not positive about that....They usually don't have a problem signing players with a checkered past....

He was a very talented player with NFL potential. And now he might have ruined his chance at making millions someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has proved that just because you are a high profile player, dont make you above the rules! Great Job Phil, keep it up! thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully James will learn his lesson the next time he thinks of doing something like what he did again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotmilk? Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Out of everyone that is returning in 2005, I have to admit I more excited about one person than I am the rest, and that is Phil Fulmer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
