Coach Moore's policy is to never take a transfer who isn't eligible to play on the team he is transferring from. I'm cool with that.

That's a good policy, but that means he could end up somewhere like GaSU. Has he named a list of potential schools yet?

The Twittersphere seems to suggest he might head to California to one of the HBCUs. I also saw a post that said athletes who fail a drug test three times aren't eligible to play football at ANY NCAA institution. That's a new one on me.

Now they're saying he might sit this year out, and try to get back into LSU next season...

He has not been dismissed from the University, just the team. The news reports yesterday said he was hoping to pay his own way this next year because of the support system available at LSU and then try to get back on the team next year. Depending on the sportswriter and their allegiance, there has not yet been a clear determination whether that is possible. The badger will make an announcement on Wednesday according to local news reports in AL.
