Whether you want him at LSU or not, don't pretend that a campus with 40,000 plus students, faculty and staff, don't have a bunch like him and much worse.
The question that matters is can he give you a quality player without a repeat of that kind of behavior. And that's a scouting/vetting question.
If the answer is yes in an objective judgement, then you probably should take him.
What shouldn't be determinative is "optics." Saying "I don't want that in my program" when the evidence indicates the kid learned his lesson is little more than virtue-signalling. And while that might make great politics it makes for bad basketball.
Nobody wants "that" in their program. If Farmer won't give you "that," then it's not an issue. We ought to be at least open to the idea of a redemption story.
