i'm sure he did learn something about being a person while at LSU. If not, he wasted his own time. No one should go a full year at 18 years old and not learn anything.

He easily could have just said he was grateful for his time at LSU but it would have been better spent in the pros. He did have teammates, staff etc that he worked with everyday. I mean damn.

Yeah, it was a cold thing to say.

How do you not learn anything about yourself as a freshman in college? He didn’t meet anyone that affected his life or he’s still friends with? At the very least he could have mentioned the fact that he learned a lot about losing. It’s really sad how selfish he appears.

Why should he sugarcoat his experience? That season was a disaster and just because he doesn't pretend his time at LSU was a tremendous "learning experience" doesn't mean he deserves this much hate. Everyone knew the situation when he signed here but for some reason "fans" shite on him constantly because he wasn't Shaq.
