Other football players involved in the Ridley "group" of athletes

After being the first one to break the news that Ridley would be absolved of any wrongdoing when the story originally broke LINK, I would hope this new story is taken with a bit more credit.
My sources told me they would inform me of the other football players involved once the Ridley situation had been cleared. I can confidently say, according to my sources, that the other players that were involved in the alleged cheating scandal were Alex Russian and Jordan Jefferson. Supposedly, there were more serious, albeit false, accusations against Ridley, which led to his declared ineligibility. I can also confidently say that all three LSU football players have been cleared of any wrong doing.
Finally, according to my sources, Ridley will definitely be returning to LSU for his senior year after the successful appeal.
Note: If you do not believe the post, why comment?

I believe you. matches up with what someone else said about JJ being mixed in cheatinggate as well.

I'm just happy that guys with info find it so necessary to validate themselves on a message board to fictitious message board posters. I think that's awesome and worth commenting because I care.

Oh also, if Ridley doesn't return, I won't hold it against you. People change their minds.

Nope I had heard similar things about JJ being involved. But I don't find it necessary to spout off every rumor or problem that comes across my desk because I need validation from a message board over my team not having rumors and gossip follow them around because some dude can't stand the thought of people not believing him on the rant. Heaven forbid poster handle tiger4ever doesn't believe me. OMG.

I cannot imagine why he would go. Improved Offense at EVERY group on offense, and its not like the 2011 RB Draft class is full of studs. Best shot at a NC since 2007. I think the pros outweigh the cons no matter how you slice it for Stevan.
Also, his family's financial situation is sound and does not require him to go out and make some money this year, so that angle is gone as well.

Thank god our backup long snapper will be available for the bowl game. Now lets hope he doesn't declare for the draft.

I need no such validation. I am simply posting a story that I know to be very accurate. There are no rumors involved. If you do not believe me, I will be fine. I am just trying to prevent the thread from being hijacked with those who will say- "My cousin's girlfriend's uncle says you are wrong"
In fact, the reason I posted any of my information was because of the stupidity and hatred that was spewed by so called LSU fans when the Ridley situation first surfaced. I was trying to validate the character of an LSU football player, not my handle.

Never said I didn't believe nor did I ever say that it wasn't true. I simply don't understand posters that claim to be "LSU Fans" that care more about being right on a message board with info because they're afraid of message board posters they've never met instead of just not saying anything and letting someone else be "that guy" that needs validation from the internet.
To note, I don't know what went down with your previous posts. Just seems unnecessary that post this about JJ, regardless of if it's true or not.

Also, if no one would post any of the information they heard, be it rumor or fact, this website would not be where it is today. While I would never advocate pushing an unsubstantiated rumor across the board, nor would I post damaging information about a player, I will post information that I know to be true that vindicates a player's reputation.

Sure it would. Someone else would just get the credit you seem to require so badly. And I don't know how this thread vindicates anyone. He was vindicated when the NCAA absolved him of any wrongdoing.

There are people who do have "inside information" but feel like they can't post it because of the petty, insecure nature of people who post on this board.

Just say what you're insinuating.

Check the link in the OP.

If you read any of the link, you will understand that mentioning JJ's name does not, in any way, slight his reputation. It is simply a part of the story. To clarify, the entire cheating accusation has not been substantiated against any player. There is no proof that JJ, Stevan Ridley, or Alex Russian cheated in any way, hence their eligibility and Stevan's successful appeal.

Fair enough. I just read it, not sure what prompted this thread to be honest based on the link.
