It's crazy that this kid had several D-1 colleges seriously courting him and now he is in jail facing a fourth arrest in the last few months.

One of the saddest things I've seen posted on this site ever. Kid has enough talent to make millions in the NFL someday.

Damn had a lot of potential.

Sad for a kid with his potential to ruin his chances before his senior year of high school.

He has grade problems as well.
At some point you have to look at the parents and hold them accountable as well.

If only our school systems had the ability to do so

If that was my child who was in high school, considering his potential, grade problems and behavioral problems, after the fight (second problem) he would have been grounded and able to go to school, work out and study. That would have been it.

I talked to one of his coaches. We DO NOT want this kid. Thug/Diva

I think Fleming has made sure of that, 4 arrests in 6 months.

From the newspaper article:
My initial thought was, if his dad was there to bail him out of jail after each of the four arrests, where was the Dad before the kid was cuffed? But the coach is certainly right, too: there's only so much assistance and guidance you can give a child; at some point they're on their own and need to make correct decisions. Four arrests in six months: agravated assault; underage DUI; contributing; theft? This is beyond tragic. What a sad waste of ability.

"He’s no longer a member of Benton football," said Benton head coach Caleb Guidry at practice this evening. "People usually get three strikes. He got four. I’m in the business to try to help kids, but they have to try to help themselves too."

Its sad, but what's even worse is he wasn't doing the same thing every time... No telling what this kid got away with or what has been covered up.

Does Angola the prison field a football team?

They probably should if they don't already.

I'm a Benton grad, and that has to be the biggest waste of talent I've ever seen at the school.

I know Caleb Guidry. He's a very nice guy but a soft guy in terms of giving second, third chances. I would have kicked the kid off immediately. His fourth arrest made Guidry's choice easier.
If the kid has a path to redemption it will be to a school like ULM or NSU. Maybe La. Tech. LSU doesn't want to touch this kid with a 10 foot pole.
