Life after a national championship...............
Numbers are down at Auburn these days. Only 53 scholarship football players are available after the loss of a large senior class, several arrest related dismissals and other issues that remain unclear. Three players, wideout Pillip Pierre-Louis, guard Andre Harris and back Robert Cooper have been removed from the roster altogether. Linebacker Jessel Curry remains listed on the Tigers' official list, but hasn't been spotted at practice since early last fall. Chizik has declined to discuss the recent arrest of four of his players on armed robbery charges. Senior safety Mike McNeil and three freshmen were arrested two weeks ago after allegedly storming an Auburn area residence with a hand gun. The Tigers will go through their third day of spring practice today in Jordan-Hare Stadium. With the limited number of players, each position should receive lots of attention.
Life after a national championship can't be much fun for the head coach these days.
