You'd hate to learn how many children the LSU football team has fathered.

The guy had one good year at LSU in 2011 and if it wasn't for the Florida game half of his popularity wouldn't exist. He still shanked a few that year. Then in 2012 he was average at best and got himself kicked off the team essentially. He wasn't an NFL caliber punter because he isn't consistent at all. He has an attitude problem and is out of shape to go along with it. Yet he gets worshipped because he has something called "swag". Brilliant fan base we got here.

1. Punting avg was better in 2012 than in 2011.
2. Way to blame the fan base for his choices.

There was a time he was being compared to top NFL punters regularly by people on this board. I laughed at that when I thought about how good Morestead is just down the road. Plus no drama with Thomas.

Yup. He was probably leaving anyway because he hated school, but he didn't have a choice to stay.

He was so fricking awesome in 2011 and still good last year. He has the talent to be all world, but it just isn't clicking for him.

Last I found was this article that he was "competing" with fellow Tiger, Donnie Jones.

My sister and some of my close friends went to Parkview and some played football with him. Just about everything said here about him is true. He's one of the most arrogant people you'll ever meet, he's violent, and he hated going to school. The other thing is about the child is that my sister who knows the mother and is convinced she got pregnant on purpose to lock him up. I guess that plan may backfire lol.

this. it is sad, to me, when young people make obvious mistakes. obviously he thought more of himself as a football player than the NFL does. it seems as if it is difficult for some to handle stardom at LSU. as a parent you have to think his parents are gnashing their teeth in frustration. the ability to think prospectively and take advice from the previous generation (those that have already learned from their mistakes) is often what separates success from failure. and that i a fact (even if some of you 20 something genius's don't believe it).
