| Update on Garrett Brumfield (Posted on 2/25/13 at 11:46 am)
I spoke with a close family member yesterday, and was told Garrett is deciding between Alabama and LSU. Both are very close, but LSU has a slight lead. He said Garrett does not like a lot of the negative stuff people say, so he's trying not to say too much out in the open. I think all of the negative stuff is weighing on the young fella. I know the kid, and he just wants to go to school and play ball. I really think he will end up at LSU when its all said and done.

Where is the negative stuff coming from? He's been pretty much universally praised on this board.

I wish people would think before they post on this site. Kids do read this stuff.

Unfortunately the negative side of recruiting is here to stay.

I haven't read much negative stuff on this board. Unless you consider "he may go out of state" negative.

Could be general negativity, not necessarily directed at him.

I hope you are right. He and Clapp will be quite the guard combo.

Well I guess it's too bad LSU is the only fan base that has negative fans that speak out....oh wait.

I love Brumfield. Looks like a true road grader. He and Clapp would make a stellar tandem.

You have to admit, some "fans" have raised it to an art form.

It's no different anywhere else. People that don't see that are trying not to.

The Brumfield kid is a monster of a guard. Plays with a mean streak and finishes blocks. The only knock on him is he hasnt committed to LSU yet.

Haven't seen anything negative about him. But, if it bothers him so bad, he needs to develop tougher skin than that. Letting what some arm chair coaches say affect him in any way is ridiculous....if this is in fact what he's talking about. This guy is a beast and shouldn't let this kind of stuff get to him. There will be negative stuff said at every level.

Agreed, I lose my shite when people say its only here. Anyway, perhaps twitter or some other social media or forums is where he may be seeing this negative feedback

I actually see both sides. But i have to wonder if any of these fans had money tied up i mean real money not some damn season tickets that they would come out and say what they do about a plyer. I wonder how they woudl react if Les came out and stated these foolishness. They would sya he was dumb. but yet they say it in a wide open forum and then hide behind a screen name. but i agree he is going to eb a star in the NFl you have to develop a thick skin for fans and media. they will alwyas say stupid stuff. like it or not.
