Got this from over yonder:
HOOVER, Ala. -- There was one notable absence from Alabama's 2016-17 football team media guide, which was released with the start of SEC Media Days, on Monday. And it was a veteran player that has been mulling a transfer.
Alabama senior defensive back Maurice Smith's name was missing from the Crimson Tide's media guide.
Last month, Smith announced he had been granted his release from his scholarship at Alabama and would consider a transfer. And that seems like the likely outcome with his omission from the team's 2016-17 media guide. There has not, however, been anything officially announced concerning Smith's return to the Crimson Tide this fall.
Entering his would-be final season in Tuscaloosa, Smith was poised to be the top candidate to fill the Star role on the UA defense while providing depth at safety and cornerback. Last year, Smith recorded 15 tackles in 15 games.
A member of Alabama's 2013 recruiting class, Smith was the No. 84 overall prospect, No. 9 cornerback and No. 11 player from the state of Texas, according to the 247Sports Composite. He will be immediately eligible to play this fall.
