LSU's highest profile player, a guy who has a statue on campus now, never brawled with the football team. And they never brawled back.
Tell me more.

Shaq got into a fight with Shawn King, a football player from West Monroe. King was then kicked out of school and Shaq got to stay. Shocking, I know.

All of this is new to mankind.
Particularly the part among young men drinking and bar boxing.
In my day we settled this with a vigorous game of yard croquet.
Les should resign after a tearful apology.
Hill should report to Angola for lifetime service.
And you and I should see who here has the prettiest Flamingo feathers.
Look my moral plumage is more impressive than yours!

Good thing we don't handle it that way anymore b/c I'm sure JJ would've made headlines for beating a kid with a croquet mallet...after stomping his face in.

One of my brothers never knocked the teeth out of a Sigma Chi's head in a drunken post-game brawl. The same Sigma Chi's never retaliated by storming our house and punching everybody they saw.

I remember Eric Hill being at Freds. He had an offensive lineman and a defensive lineman with him when he went out so he wouldn't get in trouble. Hell of a nice guy and a beast of a linebacker!
Plus, if shite went down we covered it up!

Yeah. It was probably 1986. And it was indeed quite a scene. You guys were in the right and we knew it because our guy kicked your guy when he was down. After all, if the most effeminate sorority on campus (Sigma Crimes against Nature) got their feathers ruffled, it must have been quite an offense.
Just kidding.
Sorta.

I was at LSU from 1984 to 1987 and the same thing went on. I "white boy" even jumped in against white frat boys fighting black football players that were my friends and then there is Eric Hill...he didn't need any help in his altercations.

I'm not going to pick on you guys. I know it had to suck being there.

all this talk of fraternity life has to be eating up the rantards, i just knowed it.

I will say though, Colson and Miller were not as big of geese as y'alls reputation would have had me believe.

I agree that fighting has long been a feature of college life.
However, someone might point out:
(1) You weren't a high-profile LSU football player;
(2) It isn't 1984;
(3) Schools in general have become much less tolerant of hazing, drinking, and alcohol related violence over the last thirty years;
(4) Media scrutiny of college football is geometrically more intense now than it was in 1984;
(5) We live in an era when nearly every human being is carrying a portable recording device that can capture, broadcast, and immortalize youthful follies, which certainly wasn't the case in 1984, when the most pressing technological question of the day was: Beta or VHS?
Taken together, these changes suggest that a modern LSU athlete has to behave much more cautiously than in days of yore if he wants to stay out of trouble and maintain his eligibility.
Still, I doubt that Hill misses any games due to a bar fight.

Motherfricking this!
I'm in my early 30s and as evident by the Casey Franz and Connor Baldeidges of 'Murica there are a lot more pussies these days.
