Should have been disrespectful to them like they were to the program. You know, like don't tell them they are being released from their scholarship until the summer or after.

[NOCajun]

Yeah, till like, September!!

[playincajun]

No he could not. He has been in the press and you clueless folks on here have been making all kinds of assumptions and negative remarks about thier character why in the hell would they Ever consider this place a good place to be! This has been a shame on UL and one that will come back as a blemish on the program before it is all done. Raymone and JJ way to have class. Even after being poorly portrayed by this university neither of you made a scene or went to the media. You two will be just fine because above all else said on here you are two fine young men. Anyone who.wants to challenge your character should find you on campus and be men or women and address you face to face. I have no doubt that you both can share the truth with them.
Why exactly should they be treated anymore unfairly than they already have by UL? Funny how everyone loved you during the season but once its over and you have been used things change. Good luck to both of you. Sorry about those who know not what they speak of but blindly follow!

You do realize that you're the reason why things dragged on here like they did, right? No one is trying to call Raymone or JJ bad people, however none of us are naive enough to believe that these guys did nothing wrong. Coaches don't go around suspending players for no reason. You're getting one side of the story and you're blindly following it, like a fool. Take a step back from the situation and ask yourself one question: when, in the history of sports, has a coach just decided to hate a player for no reason whatsoever?

I'm sure I speak for the rest of the board when I say that we wish JJ and Raymone all the best in their future endeavors, we're just not going to buy into your story.
