Sammy's note to everyone on Facebook:

"I let the team down, fans down, this university down and all the kids who look up to me as a role mode. I am truly sorry for my actions. But I will learn from this and will be a better person because of it. I will accept any punishment from my coaches and this university. Love you tiger nation!"

I hope you are being sarcastic

What would you have him do? He sent a sincere message taking personal responsibility for messing up, apologized to his teammates & the University and said he would not do it again.

never did anything real bad, but was not an angel by any means. served my country for 10 yrs, and state for 5 more, and raised two college attending kids. you would have made that next to impossible with your straight as a ruler attitude.

He is a class act indeed.

He'll do as he says. He'll accept his punishment, grow a little from this experience, and move on.
It just hurts a lot right now to see this.

I guess if you EVER screw up you are not a class act?

Class is as much about how you react when you screw up as it is about not screwing up to start with.
Everyone and especially teenagers screw up. It's part of life. Do they show class by admiting their mistakes and taking their punishment or do they show a lack of class by blaming others.
By my account, so far Sammy IS a class act. Time will prove whether I am right or now.

I would have the same reaction if someone like Lattimore were do to something like this.
I genuinely like the guy and would have him as a Tiger any day.
Sure you don't want to join the other side?!?!
