WJBO, WBRZ, and the AP Reporting RP kicked off the team.

COramprat · 05-02-2008, 07:42 AM

I hate to see a young life in turmoil but I said a long time ago he needed to go. If he can't see the near future he had in front of him he surely can't be trusted to keep it together any further than next month.

lsubatgirl04 · 05-02-2008, 07:43 AM

I'm sure we will never hear from LSU exactly why he was let go. I had no problem cheering my heart out for him when he took the field but enough is enough. Let's move on and continue to dominate.

Here's the press release:

LSU'S PERRILLOUX DISMISSED FROM TEAM

BATON ROUGE - Quarterback Ryan Perrilloux has been dismissed from the LSU football team, head coach Les Miles announced on Friday.

"Ryan was given every opportunity to be a part of this football team," Miles said. "In the end, he didn't fulfill his obligation as an LSU student-athlete. We hope that a new beginning will benefit him.

"I wish Ryan and his family nothing but the best in any of his future endeavors."

Perrilloux is expected to finish out the spring semester at LSU. Miles said he would have no other comment on the matter.

Stay with WWL-AM/FM&.Com for the latest.

If he is truly kicked off the team, and a big if, let the apologist start making excuses for a guy who never bled purple and gold to begin with.

Poor Dandydon homers....

What?

Dude, how long have you been sitting there waiting to pull that one out of the holster? FYI, it's totally out of context and makes absolutely zero sense. You would make better use of your time by showering and dropping about 70 pounds. Oh...TF rules require you to be fully clothed while posting.

Its done, and unfortunately, this is the right thing to do.

I thought the last time he got into trouble that LM should have parted ways with him.

Being the starting QB on the reigning NC means you have to not only meet the standard, but you have to set the standard.

RP appearently believed that rules did not apply to him. The tragedy of this isn't LSU football. We've been here a hundred years and will be here 100 more. The tragedy is that this young man was given a chance to live out an opportunity afforeded only the best of the best and he blew it. What a shame and waste Ryan Perriloux is.

I pray that this young man will rectify the problems in his life and get himself straightened out. Reminds me of a young man from right here in Florida, Adrian McPherson. All the talent in the world, no responsibility.

I don't know if the timing can ever be good for something like that but this is as good as can be expected. There's a good bit of time for all this to die down before August, at least as far as the players are concerned, I suppose. I imagine Lee has a nice collection of butterflies this morning.

Carface · 05-02-2008, 07:48 AM

Hmmmm... in hindsight maybe Miles knew what he was doing when he kept Perrilloux out of spring practice, allowing Hatch and Lee to split the reps 50/50.

I think that this just goes with the idea that Miles is an evil mastermind that plays into the public perception of him being slow.

Look forward to Jarret Lee and J Jefferson splitting time at QB...

Thank God this isn't the week before the UGA game.

That's all I'm sayin'.

No idea, but wouldn't be surprised. Miles seems pretty adept at keeping his own counsel.

MLUTiger · 05-02-2008, 07:51 AM

What an idiot. All he had to do was make the minimum GPA and coast to millions of dollars in the NFL, but that proved to be too difficult of a task for him.

I guess he was thrown off the team because he missed some classes adn meetings again? LMAO.

Don't count Hatch out completely.

Gulf Coast Tige · 05-02-2008, 07:53 AM

Now is a LOT BETTER time than anytime during the season. RP had many, many chances. He will be playing SWAC ball next year and missing the limelight. That might be exactly what he needs.

TexasTigers · 05-02-2008, 07:53 AM

File him in the Cecil Collins folder.
An AMAZING talent with the world at his fingertips.

I dont know the details but some kids struggle with fame, and sadly in todays college football that is what they are. When I see grown men getting autographs of 18 year old kids or them in video game you are naturally going to have some who cannot handle it.
Good luck RP I hope you land on your feet.

i think whats more likely is that miles knew RP was gonna have grade trouble and thought the suspension may improve the chances that he'd make the grades.

of course, if the drug thing is true then this all bs.

true. on all counts.

i find it sad that a young man that also now has a child to support just pissed away his future.

but one player does not make a team. this may be a setback, but its not the end of the world. besides, better that it happen now than in the middle of sec play leaving us with no qb with real experience. hatch and lee (and jefferson?) have north texas, troy, and tbd to get experience leading the tigers.

as far as im concerned, this is still a "damned strong team"!

lsubatgirl04 · 05-02-2008, 08:04 AM

Think about this from Hatch and Lee's point of views. Imagine you were 2nd string behind someone who had the talent but not the discipline or character, someone who seem to always be getting his hand slapped with a warning.

They have to see the opportunity they have been given and seize it.
