LSU/TCU

Does anyone know who the running back will be if Hill is thrown into jail? Do you think we'll know before August 16th?

When Hill was charged in April, Miles -- or someone above him -- suspended Hill indefinitely, meaning he will miss the games LSU doesn't play in April. No games in May, June or July, either.

After pleading guilty to a predatory attack for the second time in 15 months, Hill was given a six-month suspended jail sentence and two years of probation. He has to report weekly to a probation officer. He has a nightly curfew. All of that happened Friday, and not a word could be heard from Miles, just empty blather from an LSU spokesman: "Jeremy Hill remains indefinitely suspended from the football team and Coach Miles will not comment any further until the legal process surrounding this matter is completed."

Ah.

So Miles is waiting for Aug. 16, when a court in East Baton Rouge Parish will review his 2012 guilty plea from the incident with the girl -- when he received probation -- and determine if his guilty plea Friday violated the conditions of that probation. Which it damn well better have.

But this being Louisiana, and Jeremy Hill being a football star, who knows?

Blue and Hilliard are the other RBs.

Just heard yesterday that TCU will be wearing new unis for the game. Coach Patterson is releasing pics a little at a time. So far he released the shoes and socks. It appears Nike is updating the Bloodlines look. I heard it will be black jersey and pants with purple helmet.

joefrog, I'll be pulling for TCU. I hope they beat LSU. :0074

Hill will not be available for the TCU game.


Im expecting him to be thrown off the team or at least a 3 game suspension


Ware and Hillard will carry the load

I hope so too. It will be interesting to see how Casey bounces back. Not having Fields available hurts the pass rush, but the secondary should be good. LB unit worries me.

 

[BobbyBlueChip]

@LSUfball: Jeremy Hill just spoke to the media: "I want to thank Coach Miles and this university for giving me another chance to play football."

 

[joefrog91]

Well, TCU loses another starter today. LB Joel Halsey decided he was through with football. And now Hill is allowed to rejoin the LSU team. Frak me.

 

[BobbyBlueChip]

He was voted in. What else could Les do? :shrug:

 

[LonghornMM]

I wouldn't expect anything different from an SEC program.

 

[joefrog91]

He was voted in. What else could Les do? :shrug:

It's amazing how much is out of his control. I mean it's not like he's a multi-millionaire SEC head coach or anything.

 

[ageecee]

Disgusting that hes back on the team this fast. As a LSU fan im embarrassed as all hell.

 

[UGA12]

synopsis please

 

[ageecee]

synopsis please

Hes on probation.

He was at bar 3 months ago and sucker punched a guy and then high fived his friend after he hit the guy. Suspended 3 months ago and was just reinstated back on the team.



He was on probation when this happened at the bar.

 

[joefrog91]

Yeah, on probation for statutory rape of a 14 yr old while in high school. There was video evidence of the sucker punching. Still wasn't sentenced to any jail time.

And Les Miles said he had no choice but to let him backon the team because the team voted him back.

Makes perfect sense:0074

I agree 100%

Funny thing is that there is a freaking stable of horses at RB outside of Hill, they literally don't need him in any way - disappointing how this was handled imo - and the team voting him in is a sad excuse, if someone commits murder and the team votes him back on the team will the vote be enough then?


Les will get a pass in the end because, well you know because he eats grass and stuff

 

[Jaxx]

joefrog, I'll be pulling for TCU. I hope they beat LSU. :0074

Heck yea!

Horned Frogs!

:toast:

 

[joefrog91]

The build-up to this game is getting better than a boxing match. Patterson makes a comment about not letting the team vote Fields back and all the outlets say he slammed Miles. :mj07:

I think he should've been kicked off the team for thuggery.

Knowing that Miles has kicked off Perriloux for[/LIST] being a dick and Mathieu for marijuana, not to mention suspending Jefferson half a season for a bar fight, I figured Hill would be out. Since all of those guys were more vital and irreplaceable given positional roster depth, those I know who are closer to the program...including a former player I met and befriended this summer, were saying he would be let go. Losing the team as a result of racial tension is what Miles feared in releasing Hill. The predominantly black team was 100% behind Hill, as I explain below.

Regardless, Hill won't play vs TCU, as he will be suspended 3 or 4 games depending on how he handles himself from here

For those asking about RB depth:

LSU has blue-who is a slasher and last season's starter til injury- and Hilliard- a bruiser, with at least 5 100 yd games under hil belt. Junior magee and frosh burner, Brazil, round out the stable. No worries there

For those asking for a synopsis:

Hill chased a man out of a popular bar and sucker punched him. His blow was glancing, but a man unknown to Hill then "cleaned it up" with a big right hand. Hill then high-fived the guy like a thug. The victim had been calling hill a nigger and his mother a slave in the bar because it bothers him that hill dates white women. The victim had been kicked out of the bar shortly before the cheap shot for doing so. Multiple affidavits from the victims frat brothers verified that the victim was hammered and being unreasonable. The victim has routinely found himself in trouble with area bars and has since been entered rehabilitation for alcohol abuse.

2 years earlier, when he was a high school senior, he videoed a frosh giving him a blowjob in the football locker room and was arrested when the video began to make the rounds.
