re: Lanard Fournette leaving LSU

Maybe he wasn’t happy or invested in what he was doing and decided to move in a different direction in his life? Is that so wrong to want to make a decision that you feel is in your best interest mentally and physically?

Perhaps you've never heard of the idea of honor? Keeping one's commitments is obviously a foreign concept to you.

Again, I'm not mad at Lanard, because we really are unlikely to need him. But those of you in this thread sucking him off and gushing with thanks to him are pathetic. The guy only got a scholarship to play football at LSU as a favor to his family, because of his brother, and the way that he repays that gift is to throw it back in the face of the university?

Good for him. Go get playing time.

I hate to break it to ya, but Lanard is one of the thousands of athletes who will be going pro in something other than sports.

I don’t see you complaining about commitment when a coach processes these guys to make room for a bigger recruit.

You're trying to change the subject.

Have you ever quit a job before?

That's actually a great analogy. The appropriate thing to do when quitting a job is to give proper notice -- two weeks for most jobs, and most people do that, because they are honorable people. I'm a business owner. I've had a few crummy people just quit by simply not showing up to work anymore, which is a terrible thing to do to their coworkers who will have to pick up the slack until someone else can be hired and trained to do that job.

And pray tell - what evidence do you have that he did not give "proper notice"? Just because you are hearing of this for the first time today doesn't mean CEO hasn't known about it for weeks.

Here's an idea - get off your fricking high horse and go frick yourself in the face.

Wish for him he wouldve stuck out the season, cant get back the possible regret down the line. With football when someone decides its time to quit then its time to quit.

Are you serious with this? How do you know he hasnt been in communication with O? We have been using our freshman RBs a lot lately. Either way, you have no idea what the situation is to be commenting about this.
