That's an idiotic comment and the kid is not being immature, but showed passion in wanting to play. If he was immature he would have said something like that as soon as he arrived at LSU, but no this kid did everything they asked of him in being patient and biding his time. But even after all of that they take an offer a kid from Oho St the chance to be the starting QB, I played ball myself and I would be incensed after that. McMillan deserved the chance to play, really he deserved the chance to play last season in his backup role to Etling, but got shut out. It's really kinda fricked up that this kid never got the chance to play hardly a down at LSU, and he wasn't a bad player, but the only damn way you're going to get better is by playing in live SEC games. Etling screwed up enough in some games last season that they could have sent McMillan in then for a change of pace to let him start getting experienced PT in those games, but in what had to be an insult to him all the more they sent a true frosh (Brennan) in to get PT. LOL That's fricking crazy, no, McMillan has reason to be mad, he really didn't get a fair shake. He showed class even after all of that in thanking LSU and it's fans, and to the coaches that he felt he owed respect to.
