    Soliciting prostitution and pulling a gun on a fellow student...?
    Meet Winston Justice... Starting offensive tackle for USC...

    ESPN did a feature on him this morning... A feel good piece welcoming him back to football.. F*ck that... No coach with any class would let this guy back on the field... One of several instances at USC where a player has broken the law and been welcomed back with open arms.

    Tom Osborne would've taken him back.
    Frank Beamer would take him back.
    Bobby Bowden would take him back.
    Fat Fulmer would take him back.

    Me...nope.

    I think the biggest problem is with ESPN doing a feel good story about it, I think his arse needs to be in jail, not being honored on espn.:angryfire

    And No, I wouldn't want him back!

    That is insane!! :angryfire
    First he should not be allowed on the team if there was a conviction for either of those. Second, ESPN shouldn't be glorifying this dude if in fact he was convicted of either of these, by welcoming him back to football.

    This is pathetic and to put criminals on the pedestal like that is really sad. At least Bowden sent his starter home for the Orange Bowl. Lets see if he comes back to the team. I agree a lot of coaches would let him back in but I hope LSU never has to approach this subject.

    Larry Foster and Cecil Collins were given chances after screwing up.

    Also, didn't Billy Cannon get in trouble for making conterfeit money.
