Greedy didn't even tell O he was done.

I don't agree healthy players sitting out regardless, but the way Greedy went about it is absolute shite. Not only did he announce it on the day we found out LSU would be playing in their biggest bowl since 2011 and kind of overshadow that announcement, but his HC had to find out from some reporter who saw his tweet? I'm very disappointed in Greedy.

They spoke and he and his family indicated that he wasn't going to play in the bowl but it wasn't set in stone. Still would have been nice for Greedy to talk with O before he officially announced it but coach wasn't blindsided by this. The ops building knew he was done.

Regardless what you may think of O, that was not a high character move by Greedy to not inform him first.

Wow, I was wondering how that happened after Orgeron said he was going to be meeting with all the draft eligible players to discuss their futures and Greedy's announcement on twitter came just a couple hours later. Makes sense now. That's pretty low, regardless of which side of the fence you're on as to whether or not he should play. Not to even give your coach the common courtesy of discussing a decision like this is pretty low and immature.

I got the impression this whole season that Greedy was about Greedy and wanting to get to the NFL ASAP. As opposed to Devin White.

Best of luck to him.

Are you surprised?

All of the current seniors were recruited with the pitch that LSU gets you in and out in 3. That's why all of our JRs leave even when they aren't ready. Greedy was a Miles guy and that's how Miles recruited. Hopefully O's players can understand that maybe they need some extra development.

That being said, Greedy is ready for the NFL. So is Delpit, honestly, but he has to stay another year.

He shouldn’t be on sideline for game.

I think he met with Orgeron to discuss and Orgeron thought they were going to have second final meeting. I guess Greedy didn't feel the need for the second meeting. That doesn't make him a POS, though. It could have been a case of Orgeron hearing what he wanted to hear and not listen to what Greedy was telling him.

I'll bet Greedy signed with an agent thinking we were going to the Portland, Maine Tree Bowl.

I don't know which is worse: Greedy declaring he was skipping the bowl game during the coaches teleconference for said bowl game, or you posting a blind link to a Guilbeau column.

If you go back and listen to the audio, it sounded as though Coach O knew, but he didn't think it was going to be posted quite yet. Sounded like he knew Greedy was going pro and probably wasn't gonna play in the bowl game, but thought he would talk to him again before he posted it (probably with the hopes of convincing him to play).

Lol now I wouldn't feel bad if his stock tanks for being greedy. At least give the head coach a courtesy heads-up. The whole "my camp feels this is best for me" is dumb. By camp, I mean moochers.
