So you're saying JJ would have had to kick two more helpless souls in the head to have been kicked off the team for good? Oh, so that's how it works. I got it. So the 3rd time is not a charm.

no, JJ was a senior with no prior incidents at the school. JJ was ultimately charged with a misdemeanor. No, we do not generally kick people off the team for first offense misdemeanors. 4 games seemed appropriate IMO. Trey L has had 3 separate incidents since arriving to LSU a year ago, two of those involving violence. The kid clearly has never learned how to behave or shown that he is willing to act like an adult, which is why he deserved to be kicked off the team.

I don't know why people refuse to understand every case is unique..

Miles would have booted even Jordan Jefferson had he had the same 3 incidents. Jefferson kicked a known prick in a very isolated event, but he didn't punch a woman or rob anyone. He definitely didn't go punching things is anger and breaking his arm.

Treys first incident can also be considered a locker room issue. Something on top of everything else you definitely don't want. Not sure the team can unite with a guy like this.. Tyrann had a drug problem but was not causing harm and the team rallied for the guy. He wasn't physically assaulting anyone or even breaking the law if it was for synthetic. They desperately wanted to get him help because they loved Tyrann and his personality and he loves LSU. He had an infectious personality. Both sides are on great terms to this day which is so beneficial. Had Tyrann done the same 3 incidents as Trey L he would have been booted too.

Miles booted even Ryan Perrilloux who had a few incidents, but some may even say he didn't deserve it.. But some of his incidents showed poor attitude and once that's shown its bad. Booting Perrrilloux set LSU back tremendously, something we are just recently recovering from. He was as big of a star for the future as anyone and even he got the boot early.. Leaving us with 2 freshman to have to start..

So people can really knock it off with the ignorant he wouldn't have booted others. They are all case by case incidents. I think Miles has been spot on in his handling of judgment for every player in trouble.
