    Honey Badger tweeted at Kevin: "You don't know me!" after that piece ran. Then he got booted from school.

    And now he's considering staying at LSU and sitting out the season:

    And apparently he had his sights set on returning to the LSU football team next season. Only that decision has already been made for him.

    What a dope.

    If the meth/crank rumors are true, hope this guy gets the help he needs.

    Such a sad deal. He gets dealt a terrible hand at birth, then hits the lottery when his uncle adopts him, but can't deal with the viral fame that explodes out of nowhere and can't stay away from the losers in his life. Lot of confusion and pain in his life growing up. I feel like he freaked out from fame almost like a Brittnay Spears did. Just too much too fast. Hope he can get clean and find some measure of peace.

    That's all fine and dandy. But can he cover an NFL-caliber receiver!?!!?!?!?

    No, but that isn't why he'll be drafted

    This is entirely possible. However, isn't it also possible that he is the loser in his life and other people should be getting away from him? We heard that characterization a lot during the Michael Vick case. But I never saw any indication that, aside from athletic ability, Vick was any better than the people he was hanging around with.
