Despite LSU capping one of the best seasons in the history of college football with a dominant win over defending national champion Clemson in Monday’s title game, there are several questions covering the future of the LSU program. ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit, during his podcast this week, criticized the way LSU handled its postgame celebration. Television cameras showed LSU players receiving money from Cleveland Browns receiver and former LSU star Odell Beckham Jr. on the field after their 42-25 defeat of Clemson.

quote:

Herbstreit took issue with how some of the players responded to winning, singling out LSU senior quarterback Joe Burrow. “Burrow’s comment about ‘I’m not a student-athlete anymore, yeah it was real money.’ If you care about the program, do you really say that,” Herbstreit said. “Going into this game I was thinking with Tua leaving Alabama, I was like not only are they gonna win this thing, there’s a really good chance that Coach O’s got some mojo going right now. This thing’s gonna be around for a while.

quote:

“I will say this: as much as we’re celebrating this team, I wasn’t a real fan of the postgame stuff, the OBJ stuff with the money,” Herbstreit said. "The way they handled themselves at times. If it’s just about 2019, great. But this is about staying power, right? This isn’t the finish line of their program. Don’t they wanna win in 2020, don’t they wanna win in 2021? I almost feel like it’s all the chips in, we made it, that’s it and forget everything else. “Part of what makes Clemson, Clemson is they’re gonna be back and be preseason No. 1 next year. Part of what makes Alabama, Alabama is they don’t do that. Sure they celebrate, sure they’re happy, but guess what: they have freshmen that are watching, they have sophomores that are watching, they care about the health of their program.”

Aside from the Bama comment, he’s right and pretty much summed up what every LSU fan I know was saying today.

OBJ needs to stay in Cle forever

Eh... his use of the word their seemed inappropriate. It was Odell acting a certain way, not the LSU Tigers.

Seems he bases a lot of on OBJ's antics which is unfair to O and the current program. And underclassmen enter the draft every year. But we can use it for motivation.
