BATON ROUGE – LSU running back Alfred Blue apologized and clarified his comments that appeared in Friday’s edition of The Daily Reveille, the campus newspaper at LSU.
Blue issued the following statement:
“I understand that my comments may have sounded insensitive to those who read the Reveille article on Friday. I in no way meant to belittle any person’s way of life and feel that everyone deserves a chance to become whatever they want to be. One of my comments that was left out of Friday’s article shows this. I told the reporter that if any person can help to contribute to the team, then that is the bottom line. I apologize if anyone was hurt by my comments and also to everyone that I may have let down.”
