So let me get this straight, no athlete ever should be booed no matter what the circumstances???
No. No amateur athlete should ever be booed by his home crowd, based on his performance (or even for lack of effort, because that's too subjective). Booing unsportsmanlike conduct is Okay, as is booing the opposing team, (any) coaches, refereeing, etc. Sometimes booing your own coaches (which is fine by me, they're grown, professional, well-paid guys) is sometimes dicey, because it can be misinterpreted, but in the usual circumstances, it's okay - when a FG or punt is called and the crowd wants to go for it on 4th (and it's obvious it's the call), or for getting too conservative at the end of a game (players usually recognize when the playcalling is being booed).
Also, it's almost always a QB that has to take booing, at least at LSU. Nobody is booing our DBs and LBs who have struggled mightily in coverage this year. Nobody is booing our much-heralded DL, that is failing to get the containment and QB pressure to which we have all grown accustomed. No, everybody wants to get down on a RSFR QB because he's playing like a very talented redshirt freshman instead of a fifth year senior.
Go ahead and tell yourself it's your "right" as fan to boo the kid. That doesn't make it "right" in my book.

I dont see why there is an issue in booing him?? He hasnt improved from week to week.
You don't boo because it is tacky. Period. But if you need another reason, don't boo because it is completely counterproductive. Think about what you are doing for a second. You are booing someone because he is performing poorly, but all that booing is going to do is increase the pressure on the kid and demoralize his entire team. You aren't helping things at all. Fans who boo remind me of children who throw temper tantrums.

So is it ok to boo someone the likes of Lebron when he came right out of highschool? He was college aged
Yes, when someone starts getting paid million$ and million$ to play a kid's game, THEN it is fine to boo him until your heart's content. Even if he's 16. Boo him all the way to the bank.

Christ! I don't even know why I read this message board. Are you implying that Lee didn't know that he shouldn't throw interceptions?
