And no, they don't live in Louisiana now. This is just a temporary stop for them till they find a better payout at another college. But........go Tigers!

You are 100% correct. My point being, college sports are not the same today as it once was. You can buy a temporary team for the year and next year you may lose them all like North Carolina last year. That went from the Final two to the bottom of the pit. There's no more loyalty and hometown vibe. It is, what it is!

No one is forcing you to watch. If winning a national championship makes you feel this miserable the day after choose something else to do with your free time.

Players have been coming to LSU from other states since before the portal.

I don’t give a shite where our players are from as long as they wear purple and gold and win.

Kansas, Kentucky and Duke have been winning forever. I’m genuinely curious. When was the last NCAA champion with a majority local talent? Was that ever a thing?

Name the Louisiana players you want starting over any player that was on this team. I’ll wait for your answer.

Joe Burrow, Shaq, Alex Bregman, Livy Dunne, and Dylan Crews all aren’t from Louisiana. And guess what I don’t care

How many Alabama prominent football players are Alabama natives. Very, very few.

Brady went to the final four with all Baton Rouge kids and people said he wasn’t a good coach because of that. She does the opposite and now people are upset? LSU fans suck.

It was great that LSU won but it use to be at least half a team was from that state of the college. There were no starters from Louisiana on the team. How sad. This portal thing has really screwed up college sports. And when you add in money paid to players, it just doesn't feel the same anymore.


Lol. Just fricking win baby.

Are you saying that they commute in from out of state to class/ practice/ games EVERY DAY?

Because that would be news to most of us.

They live in Louisiana NOW.

Piss off with your dog-shite take.

no, I’m just not caught up in something so trivial and meaningless as that, I can care less if they’re from Louisiana or not, and most here could care less.
