Note: it says take it with a grain of salt at the bottom of the quote. :dunno: Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: Merk on November 30, 2011, 01:48:23 PM I just read the same thing on Bleacher Report. Believe it when I see it.
Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: pmull on November 30, 2011, 01:58:58 PM Quote LSU athletic director Joe Alleva has issued a statement regarding the speculation that surfaced earlier today. “Despite media and message board speculation, no LSU student-athletes have been declared ineligible for post-season competition. The current semester is not complete and finals are still ahead, so it is grossly unfair to our student-athletes and it is both premature and irresponsible to speculate on the final grades and postseason eligibility of our student-athletes.” http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/30/jarrett-lee-others-may-be-ineligible-for-lsus-postseason/ Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: bama87 on November 30, 2011, 02:02:00 PM I agree. It is not even time for finals. That said, I want them at full strength for BCS game. Leave no doubt.

Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: XBAMA on November 30, 2011, 02:32:11 PM when I read this the first thing I thought of is ... I'll get him a tutor myself !
we need him in the game ! because I can't say his name without the "pick six" between Jaret and Lee :dunno: for all that is good a decent and in the name of all things football , please let him play ! amen !

He is a smart kid, but he doesn't know who to throw the ball to.
Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: cbbama99 on November 30, 2011, 02:52:21 PM Wouldn't matter if he played or not. He'd just throw it to our wide open DBs. Come to think of it, I guess it would be better if he played.

Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: BAMADCHAMPSHIPS on November 30, 2011, 04:18:14 PM Wasn't go to play anyway. JJ is the qb.
Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: 2Stater on November 30, 2011, 04:19:57 PM Wasn't go to play anyway. JJ is the qb. True, and that leaves Bama with only one QB to prepare for. Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: Chechem on November 30, 2011, 04:48:33 PM I will be surprised if Lee is the only student in trouble academically. Just a guess, but I think the article was written to draw attention to the potential "BLOOM" caused by grades.
Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: Jamos on November 30, 2011, 05:26:59 PM Player eligibility must be an annual thing about this time of year, wasn't it about this time or maybe a little later last year when the rumor went around that Scam would be inelgible for the NCG.
Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: td57 on December 01, 2011, 06:51:03 AM I wonder if this is why Lee has played very little in the last couple of games?
Did he even take a snap in the Arky game? Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: Chechem on December 01, 2011, 07:00:17 AM I wonder if this is why Lee has played very little in the last couple of games? Did he even take a snap in the Arky game? He didn't play because he's a threat to throw away the game. As long as George stays out of jail, Lee will stay out of the game.

Yeah, and thinking about jail, the WHOs have a long wait trying to stay out of trouble before the NC game. I wonder if all of WHOville will be holding their collective breath? :popcorn2: Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: cbbama99 on December 01, 2011, 07:16:25 AM I wonder if this is why Lee has played very little in the last couple of games?

Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: pmull on December 01, 2011, 08:44:41 AM We knocked George Jefferson out of the game a few years ago. I can not remember if it was '08 or '09. Lee would be valuable to have on the bench if George can not stand up after Dont'a and Upshaw have their way with him.
George has to make it through the holidays without getting locked up too. Title: Re: Rumor that Jaret Lee may be ruled academically ineligible for postseason Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on December 01, 2011, 09:27:10 AM As long as JJ is healthy, they'd be crazy to play Lee. We ate his lunch in the regular season game. I look for LSU to run a decent amount of option against us with Jefferson. It worked well for them the first go around, and I was surprised they didn't do more of it then.

If there were any issue about Lee's eligibility this semester, he wouldn't have seen even mop-up duty against Arky.

Title: Re: Rumor: Jaret Lee may be academically ineligible; UPDATED *** Post by: Chechem on December 01, 2011, 06:24:02 PM Sorry to leave you all hanging. I spent the afternoon at the dentist, then picked up a friend at the Memphis airport.
I talked with the "Cajun" buddy again. He said nobody is talking about it at LSU except those who are denying it's true. He's afraid to dismiss it (afraid it's true). Other players are in doubt academically too. To be CRS fair, let's say it's not true until a newspaper picks it up and gives it credibility. :dunno: Title: Re: Rumor: Jaret Lee may be academically ineligible; UPDATED *** Post by: XBAMA on December 01, 2011, 08:07:04 PM Barron and Upshaw will miss picking off his passes .... >:(
