Did Craig leave Blue Mountain State?

TV Series Finale reports that he will not reprise his role as football player Craig Shilo in the forthcoming second season.

Actress Gabrielle Dennis, who played Shilo's girlfriend Denise, has also apparently left the series.

Jones previously played Pete Ross on Smallville until his character was axed in the third season. He later made a guest appearance in the seventh season episode 'Hero'.

The actor is currently involved in a number of legal difficulties. In 2009, he was charged with drug possession and recently threatened to sue Vivid Entertainment boss Steve Hirsch to prevent the release of a sex tape filmed with Playboy playmate Karissa Shannon.

Blue Mountain State returns to Spike on October 20.

31st January 2011

[Blue Mountain] ‘State’ follows the antics of three freshman at a big football-centric Midwestern university. Of its star players, Sam Jones III (teammate Craig Shilo) is not expected to return for season 2 due to his arrest in October. The ex-’Smallville’ actor (Clark Kent’s BFF) was detained by federal authorities on charges of alleged possession and intent to sell 10,000 oxycodone pills. No word yet on whether his role will be recast.The ’Blue Mountain State’ football team will play another season, as Spike TV has renewed the sitcom, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

So he transferred to Georgia Tech. Which is definitely not as good of a school as BMS. I already know Sam Jones(his actor) was arrested. But why would he leave a great school like BMS? No one was coming after him, no one was stopping him, it was his team. Other than Denise, he really had no reason to leave. And I know they had to write him out, just be aware.
