    Red will say LSU does not pull scholarships. The kids magically see the writing on the wall, pick up and move on. :D

    I can't remember it all but I think it was pulled twice. He went to nonaccreditated high school the 1st go round and had to retake 2 years of lost credits. Then again during his senior year but it was closer to when the wr class was full. At one point he was almost set to come here but then a bad incident with a family member being murdered and gang threats toward him right after the murder. He moved out of state to live with family and get away from the bs...so after that lsu was out of picure anyway.

    He's been in two "altercations" in the last month or so. One, a fight with a basketball player that was described by beat writers as "someone frontin' him." The latest with a coach.

    I knew there was history but couldn't recall what exactly it entailed.

    Dhaquille Williams was his name I think. He goes by Duke.

    Bryan Matthews and Jay Tate, just to name two, as beat writers have posted on more than one occasion over the last half of a year about the fight Duke got into with a basketball player during the bowl season of the '14-'15 season.

    More recently they've both posted about the altercation he had with one of the coaching staff.

    This week, Dameuyne Craig has an interview stating, "there wasn't no fight, there wasn't no altercation with a coach." (There weren't any grammar classes taught when he was in school, but I digress.")

    It's been an entertaining story to say the least. It's interesting as well.

    Auburn has done pretty well in the past when they've had issues like this arise. The only exception, within the last few years, was the crap that Reese Dismukes put himself in with players, the public, fellow students, etc.

    On the other hand, when expectations are high they tend to fall on their faces.

    How this season goes is a mystery. I suspect they would be looking at two, maybe three more losses, without Williams in the line-up.
