Heā€™s a hell of a player, but why exactly did he get dismissed from MSU? I know he wonā€™t talk about it to the media, but the Lions better make sure he tells them the whole truth about what happened.

He got caught wearing a Woverine T-shirt. Intolerable.

Here ya go, from a DetNews article recently;

ā€œIt was all on me and my boy Tez,ā€ Evans said. ā€œYou can call Tez and heā€™ll tell you the same thing. Us leaving Michigan State was on us. We forced Coach Dā€™s hands. He told us, ā€˜Once you put me in a situation to where itā€™s out of my hands, I canā€™t do nothing for you anymore. Iā€™m going to go to war for you as long as I can.ā€™ Me and Tez, we fell short end on the weed situation.ā€

Sweat said while he wasnā€™t discussing his dismissal with the media, he is being open with NFL teams. He is projected as a top-10 pick in the NFL Draft.

ā€œIt was just personal reasons,ā€ Sweat said. ā€œI tell them everything, I tell them all the details and thatā€™s just something Iā€™m keeping personal with all the teams.ā€

Thanks for the info, Adrian. If he got kicked out of MSU for weed only, then thatā€™s a terrible reason to possibly screw up a kidā€™s life. Hopefully there isnā€™t more going on there that nobody is talking about. Iā€™d hate to see the Lions spend the 8OA on Sweat only to have something really bad come up about him.

And with a tall ceiling it sounds like. If we donā€™t trade down, he has to be the pick. All of his combine numbers look pretty solid.

"Sweat was recruited by Michigan State as a tight end after playing multiple positions in high school, but moved to defensive end as a freshman. Following his dismissal, he spent one season at Copiah-Lincoln Community College in Wesson, Miss., where he was able to hone his skills as a defensive end.

But heā€™s still fairly new to football after not playing the sport until his senior year of high school."
