He contributed 0 to the team, I wish him all the best as a undrafted free agent

Good for KB. Go try to make yourself some cash young man!

So, Boutte reneged? So what. Why is it surprising? So typical of today’s world. No integrity!

It gets to a point where everyone is tired of the drama and it’s best that both parties go their separate ways. If he can play his tape will show and a team will take a risk good for him. You hate to lose talent but this was becoming way too toxic so ultimately it’s going to be addition by subtraction

The picture says it all, Boutte is all about Boutte… good luck in the NFL. We’ll do just fine with Aaron Anderson in the slot, just as talented of a WR without the Me-attitude and all the drama!

Why is putting your own self interests ahead of the team now seen as a good thing?

There weren't this many mad people when Brennan quit the team for a 2nd time.

Lol! People are emotional, subjective creatures with common internal biases, based on our life experiences and indoctrinations. So, you get 10 dislikes for pointing that out. Shame on you! Lol!

Best of wishes but I think he has a lot of growing up that NFL players are not going to tolerate when it comes to their paycheck.

His departure was the best thing that could have happened. Now maybe we can focus on other WR in the passing game (to include the rest of the team as a whole) instead of trying to pacify one player by making sure he gets his touches.

As the defections keep happening it reminds me of the good ole days when players stayed and played their heart out. That wasn’t very long ago. January 1, 2019 LSU played in the Fiesta a non playoff game. Full roster. Those days are gone forever.

Greedy Williams and Ed Alexander skipped the Fiesta Bowl to prepare for the draft.

Dude you are way off… we had like 2 scholarship DBs available that game because so many opt outs. That’s why they contemplated letting stingley play as an early enrollee.

Best of luck to him. WR is one of the few positions where LSU could lose a starter like that and still be ok.

Great freshman year. Headcase all the rest. If I'm being completely honest, he needed the extra year more than we needed him out there so no harm no foul. Good luck KB. I hate to say it but I think you're gonna need it.

No he doesn’t , he doesn’t have a qb that would really show his skills so dude is moving on

But for one stellar game, he was all but invisible his freshman year. Especially given the hype he got.

4th round, make a couple hundred thousand then it’s a wrap. Hope you got your education, you’ll need it.

I wish we could get Jack Bech to stay at LSU and take over the Slot.

L for leaving?
Wish him well. He was a bright spot in a bad year prior to his injury
