    Based on this post and Gino Joubert's twitter (who is he anyway, and does he have such great insight into LSU football?), is LSU football in meltdown mode? Or is it just a small percentage of the fanbase freaking out?

    Don't mean to flame. I was surprised by the pictures. Miles either felt no need to have the team on lockdown the night before game or they didn't care and were doing as they pleased. There is all kinds of smoke. More to story than what we know

    Seriously, people need to chill the **** out, take a deep breath, and relax. And don't believe every tweet you see from random people.

    Ok, here is my questions. IF there was a fight/argue before the game (and why the hell would anyone fight/argue before the NCG) why wasn't JJ benched for it? We know T-bob didn't play. Is this confrontation the reason T-bob did not play?

    The pics from Harrah's were apparently from last Thursday night. Many Alabama players were also there, including Trent Richardson.

    A locker room fight might explain some of the nonsense we saw on the field, but why it happened? Who knows?

    From what I am seeing online it appears a lot of the negative speak regarding Jefferson is coming from this guy, Finebaum who is a reporter or journalist from Birmingham so I don't know how much credibility I would give this story. There are pictures of a few players standing outside a strip club but no date provided and, again, the players were OUTSIDE the strip club. If you are on Bourbon Street it is not that hard for someone to take your picture outside a strip club.

    I am not saying that our players are little angels or that there wasn't some bad behavior but until it comes from a credible source we might all need to take a deep breath and let the sting wear off.

    As far as strife in the locker room it would not surprise me. Anyone who has been a member of a team knows that when you put together that many competitors there is sometimes going to be arguments and fights. IF it is true then I would definitely wonder about the timing, but again this is pure speculation at this point.

    It's Paul Finebaum...which means the answer to your question is zero.

    That helps to clarify matters.

    I still don't know who Gino Joubert is, though. He seems to be running his mouth on Twitter about a "ruckus" at LSU. Probably much ado about nothing.

    On TOS, they are calling this Jorbert fellow "an insider." I've never heard of him before.
