Could be Bama fans pretending to be LSU fans for all we know.

It can be, however I saw very much confirmed LSU fans getting too personal.

Even the memes being made and shared by LSU fans are so distasteful in my opinion.. to do that of your own team's player. That's stuff you should see from another fan base.

Then you have fans who were calling him a liar over it.. which further upsets me..

I really don't blame him if he got frustrated.. he's dealt with some really over-the-top stuff from even this fan base. It's fine to criticize play, but not get personal. Not from your own fan base who continues to try to make him out to be a villain.

You can support all the players.. it's really simple. I think he has actually handled himself well over the years given some of the lies spread about him..

He is supporting his team and Etling and Miles have said so much.. He is embracing continuing to improve instead of shutting down.. That's all you can ask.. so I wish people would stop shitting on Harris.

Here is a link to a thread questioning the comments on his social media

Jamie Howard got them in 94. Pretty sure LSU players aren't the only ones that get them.

Remember what the word "fan" means = fanatic...and what exactly is a fanatic but a mentally unstable and probably neurotic loser...an empty pathetic fool with nothing to live for...so they glum onto a team,etc. so as to feel somehow alive and meaningful...jmho

Alot of fan from different places across the nation need chill out. It a fricking game . You don't need death threat to any body period. You have right to give opinion but death threat to player or coaches that need to go

Bingo.....not that the people doing it aren't deplorable human beings, its just a result of being of social media and athletes being so accessible for idiots to sound off on.

I probably would have been more weirded out back in the day getting them because it took effort then, now just make up a username on twitter and threaten away.

Exactly.

I can't imagine some idiot sitting down and writing a death threat, then mailing it. By the time they get it the player might of won the next game for you.

What the HELL is wrong with some people ??? You really think the kid worked as hard as he did to get the starting job to intentionally play as poorly as he did ?

They were definitely LSU fans, because I clicked on a few of the people posting. For the most part they were wearing LSU gear in their profile picture.


I'm sure these brave souls would say the same thing to his face or in front of the team. They need the "Jay and Silent Bob stike back" treatment.

kick some arse

I'm not PC guy and I will call a spade a spade. But I talk to random LSU fans all the time and I think it's pretty disgusting when the say "LSU need to get rid of the Black QB (some use another word) and get a white QB. Some have even said black qbs aren't smart enough.

It's the anonymity of the internet that promotes this despicable behavior; there is no consequence for them when they do this. They probably do this in mom's basement, sitting in their underwear and feeding on Cheez Wiz and Pepsi's. Wouldn't be man enough to say that to a player face-to-face!

People are stupid, I mean hell look at the rant. You can't even have a discussion anymore because of you don't side with someone else you are labeled.

I feel bad for Harris because people did send him threats and imo those people should have to answer for that.

I see this being the problem with a lot of folks on Tigerdroppings. You learn to just ignore them but I've seen some people on here say some pretty fricked up things to those who don't agree with them. But would never dare say those things in person.
