Tyrann Mathieu to enroll at LSU

SmashMouth · 09-03-2012, 07:17 PM

Tyrann Mathieu will enroll at LSU on Tuesday, his adoptive father Tyrone told ESPN's Joe Schad on Monday.

Tyrone Mathieu announced in late August that Tyrann, the 20-year-old cornerback and punt returner known as the "Honey Badger," would not play football this season and was working on his issues with former NBA player John Lucas.

Tyrann Mathieu won the Bednarik Award as national defensive player of the year last season.
"Tyrann is working on discipline, maturity and character," Mathieu said then. "He's making life adjustments."

LSU coach Les Miles kicked Mathieu off the team in August for what a source told ESPN was a violation of the school's substance abuse policy.

Between his dismissal and Tuesday's enrollment, Tyrann Mathieu had been at the Right Step recovery center.

Mathieu briefly considered transferring to a FCS or lower-division school where he could play immediately, and visited McNeese State and Nicholls State, but instead decided to stay at LSU. It is unknown whether Miles would consider reinstating him in the future. Mathieu will be eligible to enter the NFL draft in 2013.

Good for him. I dont think LSU will let him back, but this is showing a great step for this young man.

This means, to me, he'll be on the field again next year.

He was in the student section for the washington game. Him returning to school and not headed for a lower division school shows character. Then again, most who take the easy way out, head to a small school to play a year never really work out in the NFL.
