he either missed mandatory meetings or failed a drug test, would be my guess. not really surprising though.
Ok.. where's the people that insisted that it wasn't him, that the media didn't have both sides of the story, and this isn't a pattern for him?
in my best hannibal lecter voice, it was Claaaairriiiccee. First principles, Clarice. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself? What is its nature?
That's a little harsh don't you think? I feel for the kid. He is obviously going through a number of difficulties in life and is challenged to make the decisions he needs to make to fully take advantage of the blessings he has. Does he bear responsibility? Yes. But I also know how difficult it can be to make life changing decisions especially at that age. I also know it's difficult to judge without fully understanding why he does what he does. Personally I don't think that anyone associates his behavior with LSU or even Jacksonville State. The ownership and association lies with him and him alone. If he can recognize that and make the changes he needs to he can still have an incredible career. Personally, I wish we had been able to do more for him. What if he had taken heed when a loyal coach worked so hard for him? Where would he be and where would the Tigers be if a success story had been written instead? I don't blame anyone else but him but I also hope in my heart that the young man wakes up and makes the changes in his life that will so greatly benefit him. For him, I hope that awakening comes sooner than later.
Perrilloux in trouble again Ryan Perrilloux has been suspended for the first game of Jacksonville State's season due to some rules infraction. Nothing illegal like he got involved with here, but still not good.
