Former LSU and current Tulane quarterback TJ Finley was arrested by Tulane University Police on Wednesday and charged with one count of theft over $25,000.

He was booked in Orleans Parish Jail and was later released. Per WBRZ:
quote:

According to a police report, units were dispatched to a truck blocking a driveway near Yulman Stadium. After they ran the plate on the truck, it came back as a different vehicle registered to Finley. The vehicle identification number on the truck matched a car stolen from Atlanta, Georgia.

Police added that Finley then tried to move the Dodge Ram and said that he bought the car in Atlanta. Police later confirmed the truck was stolen from Georgia.

Tulane University said Finley was suspended from the football program until the case is resolved.
Finley, a Ponchatoula native, began his college career at LSU and transferred to multiple schools, including Auburn, Texas State, Western Kentucky, and now Tulane.

Am I surprised not only stole a truck, but just parked the truck in front of a driveway like a dumbass with almost certainty over a long enough period of time that cops will get called and run your license plate and see that it's a stolen vehicle? No I am not surprised. How does one operate through life with this level of intelligence? Sure won't top $20 an hour in the real world.

He will probably end up playing with John Emery this season at Western Idaho St to complete his 10th season

I don't think people go to jail in New Orleans or stealing cars.

The full article says that his lawyer says that he has a registration and bill of sale. If that’s true…not guilty.
