Wowzers, that kid had the inside track to go to New York after the season as a Heisman Finalist.
Congrats to Matt Barkley, one of the biggest threats to keep you from winning the trophy just eliminated themselves.

I think I read somewhere the speculation is a 3rd failed drug test.

If this doesn't wake the kid up,nothing will. He will still get drafted regardless of where he plays this season.

Idk, he is 5'9" and has less than good coverage skills, Bama took advantage of him in the NC. and 5'9" is SMALL

Per LSU AD:
"The policy is a written policy. It's like the speed limit, if you are going over the speed limit, you're breaking the law. He's been over the speed limit. As in, he's been over it a lot."
He wouldn't say what it was but that he had been counseled. Wow, I wonder how many chances he got.

Funny how it was a school rule and not a team rule he broke. So I guess if it was up to Les, he would still be on the team.

So who gave him that name? Les Miles? ESPN? Some local sportswriter?
