Former LSU QB Jamie Howard joined ESPN's 104.5 FM’s Culotta & The Prince morning show on Wednesday morning and talk about how Brandon Harris received death threats after the Wisconsin game that "shook him up." Per The Advocate:
quote:

“It shook him up when he got the death threats,” Howard said later in the radio interview. “The only advice I’ve given him is, ‘The truth of the matter is everybody’s going to be watching you from the stands, how you handle yourself while you’re on the bench and how you deal with Danny and the coaching staff, but all of those people don’t matter. The only people that matter is what your teammates see. If they need you to go back into the game at some point, they need to be confident in you and see that you’re confident.’

“He’s doing well. He’s a great kid,” Howard said. “I’m hoping he’ll get through it. This is going to be good in the long term.”
You can listen to everything Howard said here.

I can't imagine that anyone who would send death threats to a kid is someone whose opinion would matter.

While true, it's hard to see it that way as a younger person.. and it's still very discouraging when it comes from your own fan base.

anyone who issues a death threat on social media is a spineless coward. This kid is doing his best. They all are. Sometimes is meets standards and sometimes it doesn't. They all want to succeed. I bet ALL of these cowards a never met the bar in their personal lives........and never will. Stay tough keyboard warriors. One day reality may physically punch you in your face. And you deserve every bit you get and even more

Talk about a blast from the past. I remember being a kid and my father calling out LSU fans sitting behind us that were yelling obscenities at him.

I'll need to see evidence of these "death threats," otherwise I'm going to assume this is just a complete lie Harris is telling to keep his poor-attitude-arse relevant.

Are you kidding me? frick people like you. You are the problem. Continue to make him out to be the bad guy. Harris took serious level personal shite from some people.. that went way overboard and you are calling him a liar. frick you. Hope you get banned. He has had no poor attitude dumbass.

Ignore the fans in the stands that see someone high five a receiver who didn't fight for an INT when he comes back to the bench. The divide is real.

Ask any LSU fans that were around after the Wisconsin game.. it was WIDELY known and talked about on here how ridiculous people were being on his social media accounts.. This isn't exaggerated or made up.. Sorry to burst your bubble.

I remember that game too. 4 pick 6's or something like that. He would get booed in TS and I went ballistic on my section. At least I got them to shut up. The rest of the stadium was a different story

It's upsetting that people shite on him on such a personal level.. I almost don't fault him for getting frustrated one time. He's handled himself well all things considered and supports his team. Wish people would stop making him out to be a villain.. he's put up with shite he shouldn't receive from his own fan base.

Every fan base has its own share of bad apples. Hopefully BH and future recruits realize that these scums don't represent 99% of the Tiger fans. That being said, whoever sent out death threats to college athletes who played their heart out for their university should despise themselves and don't deserve to be a Tiger fan!

Death threats.....really???? Folks, it's only football. It's not worth investing that kind of passion on something that has no real bearing on your real life.

Agree. Win or Lose it's just entertainment and I still have to work Monday morning.

Those were probably Ole Miss and Bama fans pretending to be LSU fans sending Harris death threats.

Very possibly, like the posters who insist that we always blame the players and not the coaches when LSU loses. Trying to make LSU look bad for recruits.

Coming from a Bama fan this is absolutely hilarious

And Bama is "shoot your brother in the chest because he didn't get upset enough that we lost" U. Y'all have no room to talk about fricked up fans, y'all epitomize everything that can be wrong with a fanbase

I know of two kickers who basically lost games in LSU's favor - Oregon State and Alabama - who received them. It is sad.

I love football and I am very passionate about LSU football, but to threaten a kids life over a game is asinine. Brandon Harris did not play well, but he is a good kid with a bright future. He is a LSU Tiger and I support him.
