Tyrann Mathieu Dismissed from LSU--Violation of team policy

Whether or not it should be the rule, it is. He knew if he failed again he was gone, and he did it anyway. SELFISH!! He let his team down.

 

I'm taking comfort in the fact that there are some young guys who are thrilled to get their chance to see the field now.

 

If you really think the biggest issue here is Mathieu smoking pot, then you're missing the larger problem.

 

And I'm proud of Miles for that. Maybe every four years, the team needs a wake-up call that no one is above dismissal?

 

he knows better, but just too much THC in him to articulate it.

 

very proud of him, he knows this could cost him a trip to Miami. Miles is a good man first.

 

IMO, the point is NOT what rule he broke or if this particular drug should be legal or not. The point is that not only did the players KNOW the rules and he obviously ignored it, but there is something called discipline. So far, TM has come out way ahead in taking chances on the football field (coming off his guy probably a little too quickly in order to go for a strip, etc). It is obvious he has little discipline off the field...these drug tests, starting a Twitter war with the Alabama QB, etc.

 

I'm sure there are a lot of other Tigers who aren't willing to give up their dreams of Miami. We can still do this.

 

I think we can too, someone will step up, its the LSU way. Nobody knew Morris Claiborne until he stepped on the field.
