USC defensive tackle Bear Alexander intends to redshirt, according to 247 Sports.
Didn’t Lincoln Riley say yesterday, “There’s no story there.”
So what does it mean that Alexander intends to redshirt? He can preserve his junior year of eligibility and transfer to another college.
I’m still trying to figure out why all this drama was worth it for someone who has been a highly inconsistent player.

Riley: “There’s no story here —he’s just decided to bail on the team after 3 games.”

So true- what a waste of talent- zero motor. The guy talked a big game about wanting to be the leader and play every down hard.. Well, we saw how that went. Better to get an unmotivated slug off that team so they can use the nil money on someone who cares.

Character matters. You could see this coming. Four high schools in four years. Leaves Georgia after his Freshman year. Doesn’t participate in Spring practice and uses that as leverage to negotiate a new NIL deal. He is a cancer on the team. Immediately kick him out of the program and school. And stop all NIL payments. Don’t allow him to play on the scout team and continue to use the weight room and nutrition programs.

Reminds me of the Dillon Baxter situation in 2011. Hyped player that caused a lot of distraction off the field. They finally dismissed him, the rest of the team came together, and went on a great run after. Hoping the same thing happens here.

Not a story and obviously he can be replaced. More reps for Hughes and others. Wow, trying to get more cash from USC. Bad statement to show pro teams.

This is big. Bear was supposed to be that defensive presence in the middle drawing double teams and freeing up the other DL. He was great last year. I remember Pete Arbogast constantly calling out his name during the games. The last 3 games this year, his name suddenly wasn’t mention at all. Either he had personal problems or he couldn’t work under Lynn’s defense. I suspect he was troubled. I’m sure we will find out eventaully what went down from his “guardian” on twitter.

Scooter,
If anyone can reach him, I am hoping that they tell him to stay and work hard to prove that he is a good player. He has two years to prove to the nfl that he will do what it takes to play. It is just like Gabbby aka Maroon working very hard to be the pinata boy that he is for the West LA Boys club. The reviews are raving for having both entrances open to them.
