What controversy?


I don't mean he was necessarily controversial, but the thing about a lot of the fanbase hating him, not recognizing him as an LSU tiger, saying he quit on the team, etc.

I was in hurry earlier and couldn't think of a more appropriate word than controversial. But it's more of how he's viewed by LSU fans (some LSU fans) than anything he explicitly did.

Granted, his docuseries didn't help the perception

The number one recruit comes to LSU. He has unbelievable stats. He plays on a team with an average head coach and teammates who are resentful. He shows enough to be the number one player in the draft, then makes rookie of the year in the NBA. Fans who criticized him have criticized Saban, Miles and Orgeron and every player who doesn't fit their idea of perfection.
Yet Simmons is controversial.
