No thanks. I won't talk about his on the field performance, but he was a horrible leader and a shitty teammate. Constantly blaming everyone else for his mistakes.
Classic Rant myth.
Other than some comments like "I think I played well" in games when Ranters disagreed, JJ never "blamed" anyone or threw teammates under the bus.
Link to quotes of that or STFU.

His character was being assassinated long before any legal issues. In 2009 and 2010 he was bashed for making "faces" that Rantards didn't like, and making comments like saying "I think I played great".
That is when the assassinations started, mainly by idiots clambering for Lee, likely the same mouth breathers that tortured Lee in 2008.
Then, he got in a fight in a bar, involving many other players, with a guy that is no stranger to physical confrontations, not always with men. He was instantly labeled a "thug".
He then served a four game suspension, losing his starting position his senior year.
He came back onto the field, to some boos of course, and scored a touchdown on his first play back.
He continued to back up and come off the bench, until Lee was unable to keep up the progress he had shown against Bama, and helped steady the offense to one of the biggest wins in our program's history, and earned his starting job back, with a Rematch on the horizon.
After leading LSU to the best offensive display of the season against the #3 Arkansas Razorbacks to finish the regular season undefeated for the first time in 53 years, he then avoided turnovers against another great defense in the SECCG while our D, STs, and running game pounded them in a 5 touchdown blowout.
He then had the misfortune to play the entire game against one of the best defenses of all time, becoming the easy target for Miles bashers and taking the blame with Miles for that, while sparing Lee having to face that D again, who gratefully sat on the sidelines while being anointed martyr by those same idiots that bashed him and JJ the past 4 years.
JJ's place in infamy was sealed. Being present when Mathieu was arrested for possessing marijuana which led to his dismissal from the team, only added to the legend. Nevermind that Mathieu has taken full responsibility for his own actions and openly admits that he was basically addicted to marijuana at the time.
So, barfight, marijuana possession (not in his home), and stating that he played well.......
Am I missing anything from the notorious JJ's rap sheet that justify his hatred by so many of our "fans"???
