LSU Gives Perrilloux the Boot

It was just a matter of time. I'm glad it finally happened. I'm hearing it was a failed drug test this time.

Good riddance.

Glad LSU got rid of him.

I am surprised it didn't come sooner.

I guess you only get 37 chances at LSU. On the 38th, you're gone.

Future Raider?

 

[tigerfan33]

Wasn't this the same guy that said when he signed that he would win the Heisman 3 years??lol

Damn these kids get into school and really screw things up.

 

[digiblur]

Yep... I'm glad he's gone. He thought he was invincible since he was a QB.

Guess he didn't care about his career.... bye bye $$$$$$

Future Raider?

Drugs nope you mean Cowboy.

Being only a sophomore I doubt that he gets a job in the NFL.
1st he would need to wait till AFTER his sophomore year to try,, then he can HOPE someone gives him a tryout.
Probably end up as a Supplimental pick at best.

Not quite that many, but he was given chances.

College programs tend to play down incidents and look the other way much too often to keep good players on their team. I think this is because more often than not they're not held accountable for allowing things to get out of hand. Take Phat Phil Fulmer for instance - he's still there after all this:

Crying shame, isn't it?

I think arena ball is his only shot at a football future.

Some other college will give him a shot.

Some other college will give him a shot.

Phat Phil Fulmer is probably working on it right now.
