re: LSU Football Players "implicated" in bar fight

How many players are you hoping get suspended? You sound personally invested in player suspensions.

None, but that doesn't stop me from stating the obvious...

But surely you can't think this will just pass....No way! Too much riding on personal conduct and coaches reps, college reps etc.

Someone will miss playing timfe for this, the question becomes "How do we fix this with minimal losses of players for a game or 2?"

All I'm personally invested in is LSU sports, more than you want to know....I'm pissed that an entire group of players weren't smart enough as a group to GET THE frick AWAY from this occurance.

so can somebody link me to any relevant rumors posted in this thread. so far most of it is typical "rabble rabble"

I'm late to the thread would someone please give me some cliff notes? Id really appreciate it.

With Jefferson potentially out I figure the odds swing towards LSU being the favorite

Well, Vegas just pulled the game off the board and I'll bet you it was NOT because there a flood of money coming in on the LSU side.

You clearly can't fathom the sacrifices that it takes to be at the top of your game.

If you want to be a "has been" immediately upon completion of your eligibility, then fine...go drink up and show up for practice hung over.

If you want to be a great one, you take care of your business and don't put yourself into situations that a) don't help you become elite (being at bars at 2am isn't one of those situations) and b) you get some rest and come to practice as physically and mentally prepared as you can.

Clearly, JJ has already resigned himself to being an also-ran once his eligibility ends.

so you're saying no good college players who care about their fball futures go out at night. gotcha.....that is the most asinine thing i've ever heard. btw, i don't think they had practice today, so how does that hungover at practice theory sound to you now?

They don't have practice today right? Some players went out. What the hell do you want them to do?

---

Doesn't seem like too much to ask for your senior starting QB to not be in places where there's a good possibility for drunken violence.

There are literally 1000s of LSU students who weren't at the bar last night, but JJ needed to be?

That's not leadership. I'm not judging his actions from a moral or big-picture life standpoint. From the standpoint of him being the starting QB for LSU right now, being there is a poor choice.

someone call Miles and tell him to release a statement

There was not a want for this to happen!

so now you're claiming no player has ever gone pro and spent time in bars while in college

I guess the LSU offense doesn't move on and off the field.

The ignorance displayed here is overwhelming.
