The issue isn't always the GPA, it's the lack of passed classes and/or test scores.


Surely Birmingham would not cock-block another Valentine, in consecutive years, from eligibility at LSU? That's what worries me... some other SEC school that recruited him will whine to the SEC office about something-or-other.

As much as this sucked for Valentine as far as LSU is concerned this was probably the best case scenario. We were able to get in in school, practice and train with the team, and get qualified. If he would have went JUCO or Prep School he may have never made it back. I my opinion I would love for the same type deal happen with Chidi. We don't need him to play next year. It would just be a secure way of keeping him at LSU.
