Honestly, I like Ben Simmons. If Ben ends up being great in the NBA and doesn't rep LSU, just know it's the "fans" like in this thread who trashed the kid who are responsible for it.

Whatever floats your boat, man. I find that example to be pretty unrepresentative of his court impact (and also probably fabricated), but go ahead
He led LSU in:
minutes played
points per game
defensive rebounds per game
offensive rebounds per game
blocks per game
assists per game
fg%
steals per game
He also had the highest assist per game total for any LSU player since 1994 (22 years); The highest rebounds per game total since 1992 (24 years) and averaged more points last season than anyone except Marcus Thornton since 1996. Only Simmons did it all in the SAME season.
Clearly he was the problem. Hell, if he was able to do all of that while "not giving a shite", then he has the potential to be best basketball player to have ever played the game.
Based upon the rant logic, if Simmons takes so much heat why shouldn't Fournette? Both were considered once-in-a-generation talents coming into LSU. Yet, like Simmons, Fournette was largely absent in "big games" and has only been able to "lead" his teams to mediocre results. Right?
