FAU's offense will benefit from Gent's return
By Marcus Nelson
After FAU wide receiver Cortez Gent was cleared to play after serving a two-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the team, it didn't take long for the second-guessing to begin.
The conspiracy theorists were ready to pounce when Gent was cleared shortly after FAU lost tight end Jamari Grant with an injury and when the Owls' offense could use a big-play threat the most.
Without knowing for certain what Gent's transgression was, I don't know if sitting out two games is the right punishment or was a slap on the wrist. Oh, there are plenty of rumors going around, but I'm not going to get into the speculation or innuendo to what Gent did. Until we know for sure it's not fair to Gent or the program and completely irresponsible to throw unproven theories against the wall to see which one sticks.
What I do know is that FAU's offense could use Gent on the field. The other receivers, especially Chris Bonner, Lester Jean and Avery Holley played well in his absence. But without Gent, it seems like FAU did not look down-field as much. Having him back as a big-play threat will help in that regard. I think there will be a few plays called by offensive coordinator Darryl Jackson (shown with Gent) to go to Gent for possible big gains this week.
