Not a fact. If I thought he was most qualified for a position I have and would help my business then I'd hire him. Not every former player goes into sales. Some go into back office positions or management roles.

Also, this whole "he won't work in this state" mentality has to stop. It is NOT a selling point to kids from LA. It actually makes it clear that some people ONLY care about them as players and not as people. It is actually counter-productive.

How many other players make a "business decision" and leave the state? To me that phrase lets everyone know they are not coming to LSU.

you make way too much sense to post here. i agree 100% with what you're saying.

i love LSU, but if I had the same choices most of the kids we are recruiting have, I probably would have chosen to go to school elsewhere.

that isn't a knock on LSU. it just speaks to my adventurous nature.

Why should I care about them as anything more than players? I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just curious. I don't know them personally any better than Joe Schmoe from Tokyo. I'm pretty sure that they could give a rat's arse about me either.

Why should I care for some young man that feels he needs to be coddled and "shown love" by a bunch of strangers? Do they really need that much love? I hope that a FOOTBALL PLAYER really doesn't feel that way. Sounds more like a big pussy to me.

Down-vote me if you wish, but I am just being real. Most people feel the same way, but they just don't have the balls to admit it.
