One Perriloux is enough. I wish the young man well and hope that he can get a handle on his life and personal issues, whatever they are. But I don't think he would be a good fit at this point absent some changes in his maturity level and some changes in his personal life.

I have no idea. Again, I'm just stating what some random Vol fans are saying. Did his brother kill someone?

not the first young blue chip athlete to make bad decisions. You can't believe the pressure they're under. Does he deserve a second chance? Yes, just not at LSU. That ship has sailed.

Janzen is just going to be a headache. If he wants to walk on and Les gives him a 0 tollerance leash then maybe. I don't want anything to do with running this program like Urban's gators


I tend to agree with this as well, but sometimes all a guy needs is the right team leadership under him and he'll straighten up REAL quick. Maybe he needs a "new start" on an established team. After all, he has been in-flux for the past few years with coaches. There would certainly have to be a talk about expectations, rules, ect. before we even considered it.

Is he worth giving this chance? Not sure, that is for Les to decide, if given the chance, that is.

I know this is not popular but seeing many come back stories and seeing great thing shappen to people who had bad starts I would like to Take JJ back.

He was an 17/18 year old kid and he is still young. We all make mistakes.

Changing his mind on a program isnt against the law. He did what he thought was best for him adn his family. Some of you sound like scourn women over that.

As far as his behavior in TEnn. THat does concern me. But hell half of you will fight for Fleming to be a tiger and the other half will fight for J Hill to be a tiger. both of these guys have had bad brush ups with the law.


Jackson is a LA kid and I will support him no matter what school he goes to and I hope things work out for him wherever he lands. I will pray for him adn his family. As he matures I hope he sees the numerous opportunities he has had and doesnt keep blowing them. RP lost millions of dollars through being a F**K up. Cecil Collins and the list goes on.......



BTW JJ > Hatcher!!

With Frank Wilson on this kid and vouching for him. I wouldnt be surprised if we took a look at him adn at least spoke to him.


I doubt Les and Staff is emabarassed and ButtHurt like you guys are.


If a Bad arse chick chose another dude over you and then broke up with him and came back to you. You would blow her off.

Please you will type that you would but if you really love her or want to be with her you will forgive and try again. Its life. i promise worst things have happened than this kid switching Commitments close to Signing day.

How do you guys kknow that Les didnt knwo he was switching?

When did he notify the staff of his Tennessee commitment?

You sound like a guy not only willing to turn the other cheek, but bend over and spread both of them, too.

Good luck with that.

In this case, you are definitely way off base. Find another cause to support.

aside from the fact that the kid was part of an armed robbery, busted sev times for smoking weed, was involved in a huge bar brawl, and suspended from the team a couple times, when has Wilson or anyone at LSU had anything to say or do ab Jackson much less vouche for him?

This is my issue

Kids will pick a different school than they were expected to... that can happen and IMO should not be cause to be vilified

But this guy just can't stay out of trouble

it's fair game when the kid and his father go out of their way to lie and be deceitful purposely leading on everyone in order to help secure another kid that otherwise wouldn't sign at the same school

I dont know if Frank is willing to vouch for him at all. I should have typed if......BuT i am think if Frank knows the young man and beleives in him he will vouch for him. If he doesnt than oh well.

I am not saying that LSU will take him back so let me clear that up. I am just saying that if we did I wouldnt be opposed to it.

and no i am not gonna advocate why we should bring him back. If it happens I will understadn and be supportive if it doesnt than I will understand and be supportive.

I am not gonna dawg the young man for past mistakes.

We pick and choose what sins to overlook and which ones to prsecute.


As far as the Signing thing. If he didnt tell Les i am gonna cal BS on that. Les knew something. Rumors were hot adn heavy on here about JJ looking elsewhere. How would he not know something was going on.

Once again. i dont know. i dont have insider information to knwo the real story behind this. But we werent shocked when it went down. We were hurt but not shocked. We went hard after Myles becuase of these rumors. why we didnt get him I dont know.

IF Les felt disrespected then I understand not talking with the kid.

but I Hebert Drove drunk adn could have taken lives and he is starting next year. We are not the ones to judge. Different enviornments produce different results.

Bil J is right on track--I seriously doubt LSU wants him after what he and his father pulled & all his off the field problems at Tennessee. This from someone who wanted to get away from all the problems in his home town. Even if things were better for him, the Tigers are limited on scholarships & some attition of the current team will be necessary before next season.

I think Auburn would be a better choice for him--he would fit in perfectly there.

See Books you are usually money in the bank on stuff like this but I just find that hard to beleive that our staff thought that day that Janzen was 100% lock.
