A strong opinion from Stewart Mandel.
Quote:
Do the right thing
LSU's Miles should dismiss troubled QB Perrilloux
...
Miles' ongoing handling of Perrilloux has become the most high-profile double standard in all of college football, one made all the more glaring by the spotlight that comes with winning a national championship and the fact that Perrilloux, last December's SEC title game MVP, is no longer a backup. If anything, he's arguably the Tigers' most indispensable player heading into next season, seeing as their only other quarterback options are a freshman who redshirted last season (Jarrett Lee), an incoming freshman (Jordan Jefferson) or a walk-on transfer from Harvard (Andrew Hatch).
...
In fairness, we don't know what personal circumstances might have led to Perrilloux shirking his responsibilities. For one, his biological father recently passed away, though the Times-Picayune reported that the two were not close and that Perrilloux had begun to run astray before that.
...
During the Tigers' championship run last season, Miles became synonymous with his unusually bold calls. It's time for him to make what would be his boldest call yet: To send his star quarterback packing.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU quarterback Ryan Perrilloux is not expected to be on the field when the Tigers open spring practice Friday.
Perrilloux was suspended indefinitely last week by coach Les Miles, who would say only that the 21-year-old had violated unspecified team rules.
The expected absence was announced Tuesday by LSU sports information director Michael Bonnette.

I don't think he'll be kicked off the team (it would have happened already), meaning our starting QB won't have a spring. Kinda scary.
However, this gives the other 2 guys much needed reps with the 1st string, just in case RP does something stupid again during the season.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- When defending national champion LSU opens spring practice Friday, the two quarterbacks who led the Tigers last season won't be there.
Matt Flynn, the offensive MVP of the BCS Championship game against Ohio State, is trying to make it in the NFL. The Tigers knew they'd be without Flynn this year. He's a fifth-year senior.
Ryan Perrilloux's absence is unexpected. The MVP of the SEC championship game, expected to replace Flynn as the starter next season, has been suspended indefinitely.
