Freshman running back LaMichael James was incarcerated earlier today on charges of “strangulation, assault and menacing.” James was a lighting bolt in Oregon’s backfield this past year and was a sound replacement for LeGarrette Blount after he was kicked off the team for his sucker punch in the Boise State game. LaMichael scored 14 touchdowns and ran for 1,546 on 6.7 yards a carry which has many Oregon faithful believing he is going to be a superstar. It was only a few weeks ago that quarterback Jeremiah Masoli was cuffed on theft charges so something seems to be in the water these days up in Eugene. No one knows right now if any charges will stick on either player, but if they do the Ducks program could be in some trouble. Chip Kelly can’t be too proud of what is going down right now!
LeGarrette Blount Hitting Boise State Football Player Video
September 4, 2009 by
Senior Oregon Ducks tailback LeGarrette Blount went straight loco last night after a disappointing loss to Boise State. Blount had been crowing all summer that the Ducks were going to roll into Boise and destroy the Broncos, but Boise State didn’t cave in. Boise won a defensive battle 19-8 and after the game linbacker Byron Hout from Boise asked Blount how he liked that a$$ whooping. Blount almost instantaneously sucker punched Hout and then went absolutely bonker on Boise fans as well. There hasn’t been any word from the Oregon football program, but this incident has given them a huge black eye. Look for Blount to get a multi-game suspension if he isn’t thrown off the team for good!
