But they are playing football at a high level for our school. We want them to come play here, and we take pride in it when they go out and win a national title and talk about how these players are “ours”. But when these same players start making decisions for themselves or talking about social justice stuff or whatever, you have countless people in this fan base that call them selfish and basically tell them to shut the frick up. You don’t see the problem with that?


Again, the fans support this program financially. We don’t have to support every player in every endeavor and we have just as much of a right to expression then they have. How can you be open to their rights and opinions but be so closed to mine? They shouldn’t be given any more preference over the fans. They shouldn’t be immune to criticism. That would be called privilege and we can’t have that in 2020.

While this is true, would you be as supportive financially if LSU were back to the Curly Hallman days? Or would the fans be as supportive?

No you don't have to support every play in every endeavor and you do have a right to express your opinions. The problem is when your opinion manifest into anger when one of these kids makes a PERSONAL decision.

I think most sensible people on here values each and everyone's rights. But when you trample on others and the players rights is what I have a problem with. Regardless whether we agree or disagree with their PERSONAL Choice to opt out, we should wish them well. So, if you are others on here that are bashing the players because of their personal choice they are making, then I challenge you to bring your everyday PERSONAL choices you make to this board for us all to see and scrutinize.

I can understand criticism doing the course of action. But to criticize someone because of a personal decision that can change their lives, for the better, and their family for generations goes beyond comprehension for me.
