He earned nothing without his team. His team earned what they got but he has unfinished business. I’m also pretty sure that they just allowed players to make money on themselves this year, so he will miss out on that opportunity to make money and he would have been one of the only players to do so. This isn’t in his best interest. He could earn more than most people do in 4-5 months of playing than most people do in a year. At least wait until a decision is made to play or not. If they aren’t playing then it would be more understanding but I still wouldn’t like that. I just never saw myself or anyone in my family as the selfish type. If he were my son, I’d be advising him to play no matter if the season went on or not. You finish! That’s what we do, we finish. The chances of anything negative happening are extremely low. No more than they were last season. This isn’t right imo. I could care less about the state of the team. LSU has plenty of talent but he hurts his teammates by doing this. They may support him because he’s a brother but it hurts them regardless. It’s just selfish on their part. It’s turning your back on the LSU brand, the school as a whole and the great LSU fans who have supported him. This changes my perception of him. Joe Burrow could have quit after all those hits also. He didn’t quit, he fought harder! Why not just quit after you’ve proven yourself in the middle of a season? It’s the same thing. You have at least 3 years to make the best of your time now. He will absolutely regret this decision later, unless he just won’t or can’t admit his true feelings.
