I hear it almost everyday from recruits, coaches or parents. Yes they read it and yes it affects them. LSU fans have garnered the reputation of being quick to turn on you. The negativity towards the program on a board also plays on their minds. I got a message last night from a LSU commitment concerned about what he was reading. It is a lot more frequent than people want to accept or admit.
This was in response to a question about whether or not he thought recruits read these chat forums and if he thought it affected them. So watch what you say folks! Keep it positive and it will go a long way to benefit us in the end!

Yet another reason why opposing fans should be denied access here,Bama in particular.

So they go to Bama where they threaten to kill you if you miss field goals. Sounds logical

It's having a much bigger effect in the real world than more a message board.
Lots of LSU "fans" talk about how stupid les is year round.
That's the problem.

Some of our own fans do more damage than anyone else. That contingent that can do nothing but gawk over Saban, all the while calling Miles a buffon, idiot and everything else under the sun. They think they're being good fans though, but they're doing nothing but undermining LSU's recruiting efforts.
Saban doesn't have to do much with a lot of these undecided recruits, just log on to tigerdroppings and show them the "Les is an idiot" threads.
Needs to be a dictatorship here. If you can't speak critically about our program without resorting to deragatory statements, you should be banned.

Wonder how many are registered as LSU fans.

Our fellow LSU fans are too stupid to see this. They also think that just because they have the right to post their opinions that they can be ugly about a recruit and it doesn't matter because they can post what they want. They are so caught up in the idea that they have a right to their opinion that they don't realize it affects the way recruits feel about a school and it's fan base.
Basically, these people are your entitled arse hats who can do and say whatever they want and you have to like it, agree with it, and respect it.

Agreed. LSU has a fan base full of chicken littles and dumb asses who constantly over criticize the coach.
I am glad that the coaching staff is well supported by people in the actual program and there are still fans that appreciate the opportunity to see good football and have a successful program at the university.

I believe in keeping it positive but when a recruit says "I'm going to find out who my real fans are" then chooses our biggest and most hated rival. Give me a break. We just found out who his real friends are and it's not the Tigers. If you want Tiger fans to like you and be a fan of yours then choose wisely, that means choose the Tigers or accept the fact that we aren't going to like you. What the hell is so hard to figure out.

People need to realize until they sign their LOI, even if it's highly unlikely, things can still happen. What's the point of sitting behind your computer crapping on these kids? It's certainly doesn't help the cause. So many butt hurt adults acting like 4 year olds after an instate kid chooses to go elsewhere... and they're suppose to be the immature teenagers.

Switching the hate from the recruits to the fanbase..nice.
Why can't everybody love everybody. ELE people...ELE

so should everyone goto bama or other rivals schools sites and set up fake accounts and bash recruits to get even.

they're basically useful idiots for Saban and Bama.

This wasn't meant to switch the hate from one subject to another. Just to make everyone aware that recruits read this board and to watch what you say.

perhaps you shouldn't be so easily offended....it's a 17 year old kid, let him go

I do agree with you to a point, but I mean seriously what fan base isn't like this? Every day you hear different horror stories of fans blowing up athlete's Twitter, or whatever, full of death threats and what not. Unfortunately it's part of the game and if you are using that as an excuse not to go to a certain University there is a bigger problem and you are just using that as your scapegoat. When you are in the spotlight you are going to get criticism, it's part of it.

I agree with this.
TD admin needs to slow this stuff down. They have to be quicker to ban stupid people.
I dont even read game day threads any more the knee jerk reactions are HORRIBLE. Also when we lose a recurit to anybody it is not doom or gloom. And please get off them kids when they made a choice. It is ok the coaching staff is going to find some one else to fill his spot.

Not offended, just curious why these kids think we should be their fans when they choose a rival
