Four LSU football players reportedly involved in bar fight last week will meet with Baton Rouge police investigators Tuesday at an undisclosed time and place, police spokesman Sgt. Donald Stone said late Monday in a news release. Police Chief Dewayne White ordered the meeting’s time and location be kept secret, Stone said. “This is being done to ensure the integrity of the investigation is not hampered or disturbed by the inordinate amount of media attention given this incident,” Stone said.

BATON ROUGE - Four LSU football players accused of being involved in a bar fight last week are expected to give their version of events to local police Tuesday. What results could have a huge impact on the Tigers' season.

Senior starting quarterback Jordan Jefferson and three other Tigers could face jail time if police decide to pursue warrants after the meeting. No. 4-ranked LSU is scheduled to play No. 3 Oregon in 12 days in the Cowboys Classic at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Offensive tackle Chris Davenport, linebacker Josh Johns and freshman wide receiver Jarvis Landry will join Jefferson, along with attorney Nathan Fisher, to give their account of what happened early Friday morning at Shady's bar.

After that, police will continue their investigation and decide whether to charge the players.
