After a fourth hearing, the matter was moved up to the 14th Judicial Court, where judge Robert Wyatt upheld the school board’s decision.

But Clemons believes Victorian did not deserve such punishment.

“He has been punished more than enough; he’s a very nice young man, he has a potential career in the big leagues but more importantly, he’s just a very good young man,” said Clemons.

Calcasieu Parish superintendent Shannon LaFargue stands by his expulsion.

Victorian was one of the highest-ranked baseball players in the country. His attorney says he still plans to attend LSU this fall and play for the Tigers.

I'm skeptical.

I still have him on the commit list because LSU is never going to put out a statement. But I have a hard time believing he makes it to Baton Rouge.

Good young men Would never have the thought cross their mind to pull out a knife on another human being.

In other words, his family has that special global handshake.

Is this about "pulling a knife out on somebody" or about "reaching in his pocket and a knife falls out" kinda thing? I'm a lil confused.

So, do we try to onboard both Victorian and Trey Holley at the same time?
Anybody think that this has any sort of, well…ethical implications for LSU?
Or does that matter?

Does he sing the national anthem from the locker room? If not, we can’t have a guy like that.

Any draft projections on him? I’m guessing he would go pro if given an opportunity.
