Most know, buy ima say it anyways. Kicked off the team for Sexually assaulting a girl in Valdosta. Had a fake I.D. As well. Pled guilty. Owned up to his mistake..."Today I took full responsibility for my actions and entered a plea to two counts of misdemeanor sexual battery for the incident that occurred in Remerton, Georgia on March 7. I first want to apologize to the young lady my actions most directly affected and I hope that by me accepting responsibility for my actions that she can move on with her life."

Here is highlights from the UGA spring game. On a phone, so just click the top link from Google entitied Wasted

He definitely has talent. will be interesting to see how his recruitment goes and how it will affect the decisions of future QBs who wish to attend LSU

I really hope we land him, it would be refreshing to see a QB who knows how to maneuver in the pocket

I hope we get him. He has talent. I like his pocket presence, quick release, and accuracy. I especially like the way he stepped up into the pocket in that last throw he made.

LSU should never offer a player who has committed a crime that would have gotten them kicked off the team had they been at LSU at the time of the offense, IMHO.

Everyone deserves a second chance...that doesn't mean it has to be here.

Just like Cameron Newton at AU (originally signed with UF, kicked off the team by Meyer, went to JUCO, now playing well by all accounts for AU), the kid should get a second chance. He got kicked off the team by Richt, he is doing his penance at a JUCO, and assuming there are no more issues, he should get a second chance. I hope that second chance is in BR, as he looks to be everything we are looking for right now.

Would that have gotten him kicked off the team here? (Wasn't the girl a boosters daughter or something?) I mean what he did was a Tuesday night at Boogies. Seriously, if my dad hadn't sexually assaulted my mom, I wouldn't be here today.

I am betting that conviction for sexual assault would get you kicked off of LSUs football team. If I am not mistaken, he was originally charged with felony sexual assault and pled down to misdemeanor. That is big stuff.

I thought he just groped a boob....

He defintely has an arm...accuracy...quick release...and knows how to move in the pocket to buy time. Good feet. Kid looked confident, composed, and under control in that vid. Count me in.

I hope we get him. At least he can look beyond his primary receiver and deliver the ball quickly.
