Even with tutors.

Why this board continues to fellate this head case is mind boggling.

Pretty sure he has lost most/all leverage he has had and is not making "demands" to return. Yes he can overcome his 1.0 GPA but its all on him to overcome.

Maurice Clarett failed PE as an all American athlete at Ohio State. Anything is possible.

I doubt that. I'm sure the coaching staff has a number of requirements for him to return...all of which are in his best interest as well.

He has 3 options

1.) Get his shite in order and return to LSU
2.) Go JUCO route
3.) Sit out this year and get his grades in order so he can transfer next year

I am all for second chances but I wouldn't let him dictate any demands for him to return to the team. He needs LSU way more than LSU needs him.

Not being enrolled in school anywhere for spring semester will likely derail any chance of seeing the field this season

His odds of playing college anywhere are rapidly vanishing. I said it before, he has a weak head.

I think "heard a rumor" is more accurate than "understand". This hasn't been verified by anyone.

I understand he has a number of demands to return.


I believe you have it backwards. He has a list of criteria to return to LSU. I would not call them demands. CEO stated earlier this Spring that there is a path that could get him back on the team and presumably eligible by Fall semester. However, the list was long.

He doesn't need to be playing college football.

You have literally zero idea what happened to him (and neither does anyone else on this board) and are referring to an 18 year old as a "head case".

People wanting maybe the most athletically gifted player in the country to play on our team?? woah that's so odd!

frick outta here.

He was the best offensive prospect in the entire country, and we need playmakers.

There, you should be unboggled now

Honestly, him not playing this year is his best option from a person standpoint if any of the rumors surrounding him are true.

He has no demands. He has academic problems that only be cleared by him. He can do this and play at LSU or sit out a year or go junco this year.

Yea we kinda do. I'm sorry that wrecks your line of Arik thinking though.

As usual, dumbshits like yourself think one player is bigger than the team.
