re: Seeking Clarity on Russell Shepard Situation

I think LSU is going to sacrifice RSs remaining eligibility in order to hopefully appear complicit and open relative to the NCAA inquiry into all things Lyles related. I think LSU is very worried about this investigation...or so I am told.
If it was just a simple issue, why would they go ahead and say there is no timeline for return. Ridley was suspended last year and then cleared for the first game like it was nothing. Miami's QB is linked to one of the biggest scandals to ever hit college football and they think he might be reinstated by this weekend. Yet Shep is out indefinitely for talking with a teammate about an interview? Something just does not add up.
Bottomline, I don't think RS plays another down in purple and gold.

Correction: Ridley was ruled ineligible for the Cotton Bowl, then reinstated prior to the game. And comparing the 2 situations is apples and oranges. Ridley was a victim of chicken little professor who thought he/she had violated some NCAA rule during final exams, notified the compliance office, yadda yadda yadda, turns out to be a non-issue. The underlying Shep situation is not so clear, then there's the violation of "protocol", so you can't gain any precedence with the Ridley case.

Harris was the one saying he expected to be reinstated and play this wknd, Miami didn't. Miami only asked that he (and the other players they ruled ineligible) have their eligibility restored by the NCAA. they're hoping the ruling on that comes before the game, but not necessarily banking on all of their guys "getting off". see UNC last yr.
