Tennessee State football coach James Webster said yesterday that former University of Louisville wide receiver JaJuan Spillman is interested in transferring to his program.Spillman, whom U of L dismissed after his arrest on drug and gun charges this month, would be eligible to play immediately at Tennessee State -- an NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) program in the Ohio Valley Conference. If he transfers to another Football Bowl Subdivision (I-A) team, he would have to sit out a year.
Spillman could not be reached for comment. Webster said it was premature to say that Spillman, who is 5 feet 9 and 180 pounds, will attend the Nashville school.

Would John Merritt, Jake Gaither, Billy Joe or Eddie Robinson consider transferring in a player with Spillman history of drug use and guns? I don't recall they ever had a player on their team with this type of history--two arrests in 18 months, driving under the influence, toting a conceiled weapon and driving without insurance. Case closed! Let him go play JUCO or Division III football with the non-scholarship players until he proves he can function successfully at an upper tier university. Just say no, TSU! Spillman caught nine passes for 64 yards last season and his strength is as a KR. Don't waste your valuable scholarship on this 5-7/162 pound cowboy!
