Lol if they didn't pick him up northwestern or some other school would. It's a hope that maybe the player has learned something and wants to walk the straight and narrow to insure they get a chance to play on Sundays. If they come to mcneese as act a fool they are gone pretty quickly

I think if you asked the LSU coaching staff and athletic department administration as well as the LSU players they would unanimously say that they hope some school gives the guy a second chance.

Having said that, McNeese's experience with SEC "discipline" type transfers has not been good. I can only think of two: Cecil Collins and Jantzen Jackson.

Cecil Collins played two games then got busted on a drug test. Jantzen Jackson played one season then declared for the draft. I've seen the assertion that he hurt McNeese's APR. Neither broke into the starting lineup before they left. I'm sure they would have if they'd stayed around long enough to learn the systems. But neither really contributed all that much as players while they were there; though Collins did score the winning touchdown in the game before he got busted.

So from McNeese's standpoint there may be some reluctance to do it again provided they really do have the opportunity. Me, I'd hope they take him. But I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't.

I don't really give a frick if the dude walks across the campus blazing while he does, as long as he's producing on the field for mcneese. Just like bigger colleges have higher standards for academics, likewise for other teams.

That said, Viator has his team on a much tighter leash than Tommy Tate. In the Tate days, the football team would file in Darrells, they would fight the baseball team and the KAs and the first person called was never the cops, it was always Tate. He'd come collect his players before the cops ever even got there.

You do realize he hasn't broken any rules at McNeese yet, don't you? Do you have to have this explained to you or can you connect the dots?
