Playing situation aside, if it does end up that he was not the instigator in the fight, and he did not actively participate in the fight, then Jefferson really got screwed in this whole situation.

I hope the truth of everything eventually comes out, and if he is proven innocent, then he really had a once in a lifetime opportunity taken away.

I like Lee at quarterback, but I can't imagine losing my senior year to a false accusation. We'll see what plays out.

This is my sentiment also. I feel really bad for JJ especially if he is found not guilty.

There's really no way around this. We've all seen the videos...the man kicking Lowery was clearly wearing a dark shirt, and JJ clearly had a light shirt on that night.

JJ is innocent. That being said, as far as him getting his starting job back, no way. I would not mess with success. It should be Lee's job to lose right now, not JJ's to win.

Quite honestly, the best thing for both JJ and the LSU team would be for JJ to red-shirt, and compete for the job again next season.

Jarrett Lee has earned the right to be LSU's starting QB this season. And we need to get Mettenberger the reps he needs to get ready for next season.

If JJ had kept his rear in his room and was the leader he claimed, he would not have been in the situation to begin with. No one did this to him. He made the decision and must reap the consequences.
