Baton Rouge Police Have Issued an Arrest Warrant for LSU QB Jordan Jefferson [UPDATE: Jefferson Suspended Indefinitely From the Team]
Baton Rouge police have issued an arrest warrant for LSU QB Jordan Jefferson according to WBRZ TV in Louisiana. What a wild week for Jefferson – three days ago, police said there would be no charges against Jefferson following his participation in a bar fight last week, but the boys in blue said the investigation would continue. Two days ago, police went to Jefferson’s apartment and took 49 pairs of shoes as evidence. Thursday, Jefferson turned 21 years old.
Once Jefferson is arrested [UPDATE: They're at the jail right now], it seems highly unlikely Les Miles would give him the start in the season opener against Oregon next Saturday night. That would mean senior Jarrett Lee gets the start. Between Jefferson’s suspension and that of wide receiver Russell Shepard, that’s an enormous advantage for the Ducks.
[UPDATE: LSU has announced that Jefferson has been suspended indefinitely from the team.]

blood on the soles!

August 26th, 2011 at 11:23 AM
Idiots.
That’s one way to get Zach Mettenberger on the field.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:25 AM
S-E-C! S-E-C! S-E-C! S-E-C! S-E-C!
Maybe he’ll get a tattoo of significance after this is all over.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:25 AM
The police never said this. No charges were brought at the time.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:25 AM
I’ll be rooting for LSU. Go pick 6 Lee! Fuck Oregon.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:26 AM
I’m sure he has the receipts for all 49 pairs since it’s normal for a college student to have that many.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:26 AM
The police never said this.
They kept talking about some Roxanne lady though.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:26 AM
Maybe because it’s I’m always getting my LSU quarterbacks mixed up going back to the rotation of Marcus Randall and JaMarcus Russell (and then thinking Matt Mauck and Matt Flynn were the same guy) but doesn’t it seem like Jarrett Lee has been there going back to the Saban days?
August 26th, 2011 at 11:28 AM
I’m sure he has the receipts for all 49 pairs since it’s normal for a college student to have that many.
Dude, young black guys buy shoes like young white guys buy whatever it is young white guys like to buy a lot of. Aviators? Polos? Subscriptions to Mens Health?
August 26th, 2011 at 11:29 AM
Butters:
I wish Zack Lee wouldn’t have signed the contract with the Dodgers.
Then our quarterbacks would be Jarrett Lee, Zach Lee, and Zach Mettenberger.

August 26th, 2011 at 11:30 AM
love the boys in blue in baton rouge. why announce there wouldn’t be charges (yet!) and then arrest the guy days later?
this being LSU, i would have assumed they’ve dealt with this kind of matter before.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:30 AM
I think remembering quarterback names is what drove Les Miles crazy in the first place
August 26th, 2011 at 11:30 AM
Yikes. What does Miles do? What if he’s got an adequate defense? What if Miles believes him? Would suck to suspend a kid who later beats the charges.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:31 AM
Did they say no charges? Or did they say no charges as of now?
August 26th, 2011 at 11:32 AM
I’ve watched him pitch a couple of times this year. He’s been struggling a bit lately.
//Go Loons!
August 26th, 2011 at 11:33 AM
Zach Mettenberger is quite the gentleman.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:33 AM
RYAN. PERRILLOUX.
Yeah, we had this tango before. At least our coach doesn’t pretend he’s ignorant to what’s going on. We do kick players off our team. Including quarterbacks.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:35 AM
It does, it feels like he’s been throwing picks for years mostly because I always happened to working the weekends where Breesus would flip out on Lee.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:35 AM
I’m not sure I’ve owned 49 pairs of shoes in my 30 years on this earth.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:37 AM
This is not the place to come for accurate CFB information.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:40 AM
Why does the writer of the White Mike Vick story only have one name? He’s not a soccer player.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:42 AM
Zach Mettenberger
Who?
/at least LSU aren’t asking the police to let them play this game while saying they won’t play the next 5.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:42 AM
Butters, you’re not alone. LSU QBs have confused me for years. Who was the one who threw that Hail Mary to beat UK?
August 26th, 2011 at 11:44 AM
Charges could still be brought against Jordan Jefferson, Chris Davenport, Josh Johns and Jarvis Landry as the investigation continues of their role in the fight, which sent four men to hospitals with injuries.
The above-language appeared in the article which apparently led you to decide that the cops had decided bail on the case, TBL…
The Baton Rouge cops operated in a standard manner here, they didn’t nothing out of the ordinary.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:45 AM
did, not didn’t. Ugh typos.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:46 AM
People are freaking out against the players down here because the victims were Marines. There’s a lot of anger, lies, and character assassination on both sides. It’s ugly.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:47 AM
Les surrenendered the entire 2008 season by kicking Perrilloux off the team and relying on Andrew Hatch and Jarrett Lee (the pick-six year).

I know. I was just having a dig at the BCS/Sugar Bowl. They don’t compare in level of gravity. It is good to see that Les isn’t about to excuse his players’ horrible behavior.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:52 AM
the victims were Marines.
when Marines are victims of anything but an ambush, we are all doomed

Who’s better at character assassination, cops or high profile defense lawyers? Yeah, the victim and the Marine’s personal life will be shredded by this LSU lawyer.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:53 AM
He has more pairs of shoes than many women I know, let alone a 21 YO male college student.
August 26th, 2011 at 11:57 AM
no point in saying, “no charges being brought today against the players” while the investigation was ongoing.
what purpose did that serve?
they should have said, “investigation is still going on. we’ll let you know.”
August 26th, 2011 at 11:58 AM
Damn. We’re about to see if Les Miles was crazy for picking Jefferson over his backups or if his backups are just that bad. Sucks for LSU.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:00 PM
I bet he looks like Tyler Bray when he plays. Bray looked great at times and terrible at others. I could see the same for Lil’ Roethlisberger
August 26th, 2011 at 12:01 PM
tp be fair, clown had this many paris of shoes before college.

August 26th, 2011 at 12:03 PM
I think it served an informational purpose. why are you having such a hard time with that? if the fuzz said “no charges being brought today against the players,” then that informs the media that no charges were being brought that day against the players.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:04 PM
sucks for Arkansas really, that last game of the year would be a lot easier if Jefferson was in there throwing ducks all around.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:05 PM
Like I said in the Roundup, there’s stories that the victim’s girlfriend had a restraining order out, and it all started because he heard that her ex was talking to some black dudes in a bar.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:05 PM
Les Miles’ brain scan.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:05 PM
This helps LSU.
/Russell Shepard was a bigger loss
August 26th, 2011 at 12:07 PM
The dude was the starter for a reason, no?
August 26th, 2011 at 12:07 PM
Well the article written about a criminal investigation should be letting us know if there were charges are not. Just one of those things you can’t gloss over.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:07 PM
i wonder how vegas will respond to this?
August 26th, 2011 at 12:08 PM
Oregon goes from -3 to -6?
August 26th, 2011 at 12:09 PM
*places ad in paper for a comment copy-editor*
August 26th, 2011 at 12:09 PM
Yeah. Because Les Miles will play a mediocre senior over a talented freshman.
There’s a reason why Spencer Ware’s break-out game came in the Cotton Bowl–Stevan Ridley and Richard Murphy weren’t coming off the field until Ridley got in trouble himself.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:10 PM
Damm. I’m a huge Shepard fan. I’m surprised/disappointed that he was one of the kids involved. He seems like a great kid.

There’s already been some “leaks” about the Marine in question having an arrest record.
NCAA lawyers >>> JAG

August 26th, 2011 at 12:11 PM
Never mind…just noticed that Shep was suspended for involvement with Willie Lyles. Missed that story.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:14 PM
i tought the wording a few days ago was strange ‘no charges promised or given’
August 26th, 2011 at 12:15 PM
49 pairs of shoes? That’s it? I find that jarring.
August 26th, 2011 at 12:16 PM
LSU fans: Lee or Zach?
I’m sure Lee will get the start due to experience, but I’m sure after a debacle of a 1st half, they’ll go with the young kid
August 26th, 2011 at 12:20 PM
Let Lee start and phase Mettenberger in against Northwestern State. Or whichever cupcake is at the beginning of the season.
August 26th, 2011 at 1:01 PM
LSthUg.
Jarrett Lee is horrible. bet it all on the ducks.
August 26th, 2011 at 1:22 PM
Why is this that big of a deal? Jordan Jefferson isn’t even that good. I mean if Stanford lost Andrew Luck, big story. But Jefferson makes Jacory Harris look like Aaron Rodgers. LSU may be better off. Was Kragthorpe going to work magic even if he didn’t step down?
Jarrett Lee it’s your turn to be mediocre.
August 26th, 2011 at 5:33 PM
/Sucks for LSU
/sucks for Arkansas really, that last game of the year would be a lot easier if Jefferson was in there throwing ducks all around
Arkbadger, you’ll be a lot happier having Jarrett Lee in there throwing TAINTs rather than Jefferson, who every once in a while actually has a decent game.
