Lets hope he can get some help and stick with it, or else, this may just be temporary.

We'll see what happens. For the reports that he has bad attitude, late and not working hard to the point some players complained about him. Can someone change so soon? The kid really needs to grow up accept his responsibility and work harder than anyone. I hope he's the exception, but typically guys can't keep up the choir boy routine. In the end we need him, but we'll survive if he messes up.

Either that, or the coaches felt he needed us badly.

Assign him to Travian Robertson. The big guy will keep him in line. Hope this kid gets it this time around.

I hope the players that were in agreement with his dismissal are in agreement with this. Everyone needs to be on the same page if we want to have a really special season.

I guess Coach Spurrier knows what he is doing with this situation. I thought Hampton had already gotten several chances to shape up. Some of his own teammates thought he was disruptive and should no longer be with the team. Let's hope he makes the most of yet another unwarranted chance, imo, to redeem himself.

Very good point. SOS can give all the second chances he wants. As far as I am concerned he has earned that right and also everyone needs a second chance just like most of the posters on this board.....

I hope Victor takes advantage of this golden opportunity. I am all for giving people a fair chance and it seems like the staff is doing all they can to help Victor get his life turned around. I have to say though, this looks a little silly on the part of our staff......JMO.

To me the key to this is "with his parents". You get mom and dad on your side and willing to help keep him accountable and that will make a huge difference.
