re: Advocate columnist Matthew Harris believes Hill is done at LSU

Why didn't we get a fricking comment from Hillar's office on that one?

This is what one might call "selective memory." Google's your friend if you use it, within a minute you'll find Hillar's comments to the Advocate about the Chevron attack.

This is a risk LSU knowingly accepted when it allowed Hill to sign a NLI after he was put on probation. This sort of outcome was always possible.

Again, people, this is probably nothing if Hill was not on probation. It would be just another bar fight among LSU students and it would be a note for the football beat writers and perhaps we would speculate on whether Miles would start Blue against TCU because of the bar fight.

But this is not about the bar fight. It's about the sexual assault charge, the plea deal to a misdemeanor, a sentence of probation and a violation of said probation.

The question now is, does the court look at this as simply a violation of terms of probation in a misdemeanor case, or does it look at it as violation of terms of probation in a case that was originally a serious felony sex crime charge, plead down to a misdemeanor?
