LSU coach Miles says players ‘involved in behavior that’s unacceptable to me’ after bar fight

By Associated Press, Updated: Saturday, August 20, 3:15 PM

BATON ROUGE, La. — LSU coach Les Miles says players have “been involved in behavior that’s unacceptable to me” after starting quarterback Jordan Jefferson and several unidentified teammates were implicated in a fight at a local bar early Friday morning.

Miles addressed the media about the incident for the first time Saturday. A group of 22 players who make up the fourth-ranked Tigers’ Unity Council accompanied Miles for a terse 6½-minute session that included an apology from senior offensive lineman Josh Dworaczyk.

“I can tell you that the last couple of days have been miserable for us, that we’ve been involved in behavior that’s unacceptable to me, certainly unacceptable to our team — guys that broke team rules and violated curfew,” Miles said. “I can tell you and assure you that this will not happen again. I can tell you that there’s a remorseful team here.

“I personally want to apologize for the actions of my team.”

Miles said a “relatively large group” was involved in the incident, mentioning senior lineman T-Bob Hebert and Jefferson by name. Miles said all team members were accounted for at a 10:30 p.m. curfew check Thursday night.

No charges have been filed, nor have there been any arrests. The Baton Rouge Police Department’s investigation was ongoing Saturday.

Police spokesman Sgt. Don Stone said four people were taken to local hospitals after the fight, none of them football players. Stone also said the four people taken for medical attention indicated they intended to press charges.

Athletic director Joe Alleva released statement saying “we will not tolerate student-athletes whose irresponsible actions tarnish the good name of a great university.”

“LSU student-athletes are expected to behave with the understanding that they represent their school, their fellow students and the long history of this program, regardless of the time of day,” he said. “Coach Miles has already begun taking disciplinary action. It is critical that we are deliberate in determining the facts surrounding this incident and as coach Miles said, when the facts are clear, additional and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken if necessary.”

They'll all play.

Apparently, if you believe the grape vine, Jordan Jefferson was the primary instigator and allegedly "kicked someone in the back of the head while they were on the ground."

JJ doesn't have many fans to begin with so there might not be much protection for him. I doubt what is being reported is entirely true but this could potentially be divisive.

I'll try to reserve judgment until all the facts come out, but this press conference seems like a load of bullshit.

Terrible. Jordan Jefferson and three other Tigers are in cuffs right now. JJ and Chris Davenport being charged with 2nd degree, aka felony, battery. Jarvis Landry and Josh Downs being hit with 1st degree charges.

Looks like everyone will get their wish and JJ will be gone and Mettenberger can take over. Time to jump on the #amishbieber train I guess.

The initial report of charges being pressed was wrong. Being brought in for questioning but there have been no arrest warrants.

Still time for this to find a rug to get underneath.

Ah, alright then. The BR police will do a nice job of letting this go away.

I would be surprised if this touches Auburn's 80 points, they wrapped up the Cup pretty early this year.

Kitchens, Michael McNeil, and Harrison Mosley are all in legal straits that are, per Glennon Threatt on Finebaum just a few minutes ago, the worst in the legal system shy of actually killing someone.

It's not really about winning and losing. Just wanted to make sure you'd actually read it and/or I wasn't crazy.

Jordan Jefferson to be arrested today, along with reserve LB/S Josh Johns. Both are expected to turn themselves in.

This really sucks. The "victim" is a complete douche by all accounts and was accused of intimidating and stalking his girlfriend at the same bar hours earlier. Also has an existing record for a burglary charge in Florida, and also is a reported drug addict/drug dealer. Also was alleged by bar employees to have instigated the fight and thrown the first punch.

I don't defend JJ kicking anyone in the head, or even being involved in this mess to begin with, but this "victim" is anything but. He's a hyperviolent doucher who barked up the wrong tree and got his chin checked.

Marines and LSU fans fail arguing and threatening each other for days on Jefferson's facebook fan page.


My favorite quote though....

I find it ironic that you guys have to "like" this page to talk about a player you hate.

 

[Obst]

Let Mettenberger start!

LOL hilarious. Even bigger LOL at the Marines trying to claim this guy as their own. Guy is a class A douche.
