Well Boys the JJ decision comes today!

I hope Les says he's thinking about starting JJ this weekend just to see people around here lose their fcking minds.

"The fact of the matter is Mr. Jefferson gave inconsistent statements — at least three in the beginning — none of which can be reconciled with the other," Bienvenu said. "There will be some questions that will be asked that I'm sure will be difficult for Mr. Jefferson to answer based on what I know. Whether Mr. Jefferson can answer those questions and satisfy the concerns of the grand jury remains to be seen."

Did anything ever come of the other non-football guys involved in the fight? I've tried to avoid this story, in general.

Just from what I know about some of JJ's facial expressions and demeanor and the response that they elicit in people, I would never put him on the stand.

"If any crime was committed by Jordan Jefferson, it was simple battery," Unglesby said.

Well, he will be asked very quickly whether he hit Lowery with his feet or hands. At that point it becomes an issue of doctor statements and x-rays. And didn't this guy say that he didn't kick him in the head? (I guess that would be technically true if he hit him in the neck or ear... it is what it is.)

Shoot, with JJ's testimony he might get indicted for attempted murder.

And here is the elephant in the room

quote:

Both players are also subject to suspension or expulsion by the LSU Dean of Students office.

"The Code of Conduct focuses on the behavior and is not restricted to something being at a felony or a misdemeanor level," LSU Dean of Students Kathleen White said. She also specified a portion of the Code of Conduct that says, "The University has the legal right to deny membership to those applicants who do not meet established standards for academic and personal conduct and to impose sanctions on students who are found in violation of these standards. The rules of evidence applicable to civil and criminal cases shall not apply to University conduct proceedings."

Remember Mett having to go before the faculty committee on his misdemeanor charges. I think the JJs will have to wait for the committee review. This is out of Miles hands for now

Wonder if Team Sweep got a good night's sleep last night. This is the day they've been waiting for I guess

I wish him well for the reminder of his life. However, some seem to have this mentality of watering down crimes they commit to being "mistakes". That's bullshite. A crime is a crime. IF he did the crime, he needs to do the time. IF you did it, fricking MAN UP and take responsibility for what you did instead of crying, pouting, and sulking like some little helpless bitch because you got caught and won't be able to play football this year.

That is an interesting change in tune from the Motion for Dismissal to the quote above.

Interesting. It seemed last week that Unglesby was saying that JJ was not involved at all. Today he seems to be saying that JJ was involved but that Lowery was not badly hurt.

This is relevant because of the dean of students quote. JJ suspension is football only at this point. Depending on what he says in testimony today, it's possible that a university suspension is at least a theoretical possibility.
