re: TK Fleming sentenced to 3 years for unauthorized entry

sounds like tim pope

Sad to hear this. Guy has major talent.

Unreal talent. Saw him against TM7 in the triple/long jump at the '10 state track meet. TK destroyed him (and everyone else).

I can admit he has good measurables, and has done well in long jump/track.

But I have never been a TK Fleming fan, mainly because I have never seen him play football live. So the only thing I can go on is highlights (which I hate to do), but the only reel of football footage that exists on him is on Rivals and it is just one single reel that is merely 3 mins long, and it is not impressive at all.

He doesn't make one play behind the line of scrimmage, outside of a FG block. Three of his highlights show him actually missing the tackle or not being in on the tackle. He doesn't make monster hits or de-cleaters. He doesn't even wrap up. Most of his tackles are arm tackles dragging someone down, and most of them are after the ball carrier has gained 5 to 10 yards, and in one highlight, he actually threw the tackler for a 2 yards gain. He doesn't use his speed to track down the rb & takes bad angles hwrere the RB passes him by. He doesn't seem to recognize quickly enough where the play is going. On special teams, he stands around while another makes the tackle. And there is no footage of him in coverage to judge. Whether he projected to Saftey or LB, he doesn't look like an instinctive player who can use his tools.

It's a sad story, and I hope, for his sake, he can finally wake up & turn his life around. Losing your freedom makes some guys go straight.

But as far as the footabll player I saw in those highlights, he might actually be over-rated being a 3-star. He'd never see the field at LSU, much less make us forget about LC. I have to think most of the marveling over his talent in this thread has to be coming from Benton alumni because there's no evidence he's done anything worthy of "next level" praise.

Yes. He can probably get out early for good behavior. Hopefully he stays out of trouble while in there.

How can you rate someone that you've never seen? He's by far the best prospect to come out of the Shreveport-Bossier in the last twenty years.

I've rated prospects way before the .coms

ASSUMING he's getting a legit 3 years DOC, he'll be out in under 1.5 years if he doesn't frick up in jail

"good" time is over 2 days credit for every 1 day in

also, i'm guessing flemming still had other pending charges and he pled to this one to get the others dismissed. i could be wrong though, but with his history i can't imagine he had resolved all of his other charges

This was in the bossier press tribune today.

He has a fine looking crib. Don't think his new digs will be quite so nice... Too bad.

Dunno. I don't have sources in the clink.

So when he gets out, he'll still have 5 to play 4, correct?

He just needs to stay in shape while he is in the joint. I hear they have a good weight-lifting program in most prisons.
