re: 2 things on Marshall

Quitters gonna quit

and now it’s time for him to go and make something for him and his family.

But it's not time for that. The season is still going. He just told all of his team mates in purple and gold, "f you, I'm all about me."

Why do you care so much, does he own you anything? You sound like you taking it real personal.

To play devils advocate, this was all known before the season

(no message)

TM6 has great talent, size, and he's fast. Almost on the same level of the Metcalf guy in Seattle. (Not quite). Through no fault of his own, he's shown to be a little injury prone to this point of his playing career. I don't like for any Tiger to leave with eligibility, but this time it makes sense.

The fact is: the kid quit the team to protect his financial future and that is a selfish act, regardless if it's the best thing for him to do, personally.

---

People commit selfish acts to protect/improve their financial future all the time I'm willing to bet most of the board has left one job for another because the new job is better for them. Does that make them quitters?

quote:

---

Other young men decide to play possibly risking their future, but understand what a commitment actually means.

Tell that to the football recruits LSU is about to tell to look elsewhere. They just kicked a kid out of the class last night, and there are more to come.

quote:

---

Nowhere in human history before the last couple of years has society thought it was okay to quit when things aren't going well. That's just never a idea that has been acceptable. But now you guys are trying to make that so.

holy shite just when seems we've heard the dumbest thing possible on this site, someone one ups it

I changed jobs a few years ago, went to a competitor in part because i was concerned about the direction of my old company, am i a "quitter"?

I suppose you also think the generals in WWI were right to keep charging out of the trenches while troops keep getting slaughtered because you don't quit just because something isn't going well.

Speaking of which, you must be in favor of removing all Confederate Monuments, not because they are "offensive" but because they were quitters right

The saddest thing here is (allegedly) grown men upset a kid "quit" an extra curricular activity

quote:

---

But as soon as a player makes a business decision for himself and LSU doesn't benefit they call him a quitter. It's so hypocritical it's almost laughable.

---

for that matter, didn't Nick Saban quit on Michigan St to come to LSU? Miles on Ok State?

Marshall could have really boosted his draft stock with a big game against a cornerback that NFL teams hold in high regard.

Well you are basing your theory on the fact that this LSU offensive line is going to protect the QB long enough for Marshall to even get 5 yds. That shite is not gonna happen.

So to say he's running away from Surtain is ludicrous. By the time he gets 5 yds downfield the Bama DLine will be knocking our QB on his arse. But yet you seems like the person that will blame Marshall for not getting open.
