Michigan State RB LJ Scott arrested for the seventh time

Michigan State's LJ Scott should probably stop getting arrested.

Maybe it’s time for Michaigan State running back LJ Scott to actually get a clue. He’s not above the law, no matter how minor the infraction might be.

Scott, a junior starting running back for the Spartans, was arrested Wednesday in East Lansing for driving on a suspended license. It’s the seventh time Scott has been arrested for this specific violation.

No. Really.

“Scott, 21, was arrested and later released on a personal recognizance bond, East Lansing Police spokesman Lt. Chad Connelly said Thursday. He declined to comment further because Scott has not yet been arraigned,” the Lansing Journal reported Thursday.

As a repeat offender, Scott faces up to one year in jail.

With 408 yards on the ground, Scott is Michigan State’s leading rusher thus far this season. He’s also averaging 4.9 yards per rush and has scored four touchdowns.

Considered a mid-round draft prospect, there’s been some thought given to the idea that Scott might forgo his senior season and enter the 2018 NFL Draft. But he’ll have to make sure he’s not in jail for that to come to fruition.

What’s the definition of insanity, once again? Asking for a friend.
