This is maybe the biggest lie told on this website.

Orgeron made the (correct) decision to not have his injured running back who was about to be a top 5 pick play in a bowl game.

quote:

"To be honest, it really wasn't my decision," Fournette told NFL Now Live. "My coach brought me into the office. He told me 'You have a lot on the line.' He didn't want me to play. I cried like a baby. It was hard for me. That was my first time not really traveling with the team and I couldn't play in a game with my brothers. I'm going to miss them."

Later in the interview, Fournette reiterated the point, saying "my coach made (the decision) for me."

Dude that article needs to be put at the top of this board for everyone who cast judgement on Fournette’s career at LSU. That man damn near had to play 1 v 11 every Saturday and didn’t complain or flinch
