1. Vote of seniors and juniors (since seniors won't be around for next season)

2. WEEKLY drug screenings until he leaves LSU

3. Focus his community involvement on illegal substances and showing kids how he almost pissed it away and is making most of his last chance.




it is not a democracy so I wouldn't consider #1

Ideas 2 and 3 seem solid though. I'd love to have TM7 back but it can't be some joke where he gets to do whatever he wants. He would really only be getting a fourth chance because he is a special athlete and had to sit out for a year.

I find it hard to believe he will be able to stay in school and stay academically eligible during his year of suspension though. I'd think the NCAA rules on those issues would be real hurdles if he can't afford to pay for school on his own.

Well as somebody mentioned, his uncle was Zulu king, so somebody in the family has some kinda money.

A friend had to call every day when he was in drug court to hear his color. This should be the same. Have him call Miles, athletic dept, whomever every morning between 8:00am-8:10am. If it is gold, go about your business. If he gets told purple, drug test done by 9am. This forces him to wake early and not sleep late. Also, no football practice means more time for school. Must maintain a 3.0 gpa for fall and spring. At LSU, you have unlimited amount of tutors that can provide him help. Miles should make sure he is VERY busy with school and studying that going out every night isn't possible. If he maintains a 3.5 gpa in the fall, he can go through spring football. If only 3.0, then he must do 3.0 again to earn spot on team in fall. Saturday's is normally game day for him. So, every Saturday morning, community service in the sun. Drug counciling 3 nights a week then 2 nights, finally once a week by the time next summer gets here. No social media except Facebook. A fan page on Facebook for fans and teammates to encourage him could be good. Finally, both his feet will touch EVERY STEP in tiger stadium. Tell him he has to mentally (school) and physically climb the mountain he created.
