However, let's not anoint Fournette as an angel. He has turned into a prima donna as well


What the hell are you talking about? Are you saying this because he sat out for 4 games this year due to an ankle injury and when he did come back he rushed for 284 yards 3 TDs with 3 receptions for 25 yards?

I watched one LSU basketball game all of last season. Saw that prima donna half-assing it, and gave up.




What game did you watch? Something tells me, you were going to have this opinion no matter what.

You don't know that


all you had to do was watch the games...he wanted to run the point.

Bottom line is he was grossly misused


yep he should have been posting up most of the time instead of handling the ball where he can't score. Teams were able to defend him rather easily when they realized he had NO jump shot.

You're the one that looks dumb for it


most overhyped LSU player I have ever seen. I can't wait to see him get abused by the NBA.

And you could have allowed your most well-established player to play the position he had spent 3 years earning....

We were playing to accommodate a head case. He was bigger than the team. Apparently some fans don't think he was a cancer. Your teammates aren't going to respect a guy that won't abide by the rules they have to. I really hope he is a huge bust.

You watched one game so your opinion is definitely valid

You're goddam right it's valid. I don't nmeed to watch a game to find out the kid didn't start a game because he stopped going to classes. I don't need to watch a game to see LSU losing against teams they should be beating. You don't have to watch the game to know that there is lackluster effort overall.

it's somehow the 18 year old that should have been in the NBA's fault.

He didn't want to be here - and it showed. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

Im not blaming the kid for all of the world's problems, what I'm saying is that he doesn't have any place in college basketball - no one who doesn't want to play college ball should have to.

I'm sorry you think they should.

You think if he wanted to be at LSU I would still have the opinion of him?

No.

I don' tlike the way the system works, and I don't like prima donnas coming to my school thinking they too good for it.

And that shite is free? What it sounds like u want is to do away with college atheletics because all this union and pay them is what will ruin it. I don't agree with one and done but I sure as frick don't feel sorry for these superstars. Guess what life ain't fair welcome to it.

Ben the "one and done" rule is an NBA rule not an NCAA rule. There are no NCAA rules preventing you from going straight to the NBA and.

How about the claims of Rolex and houses offered? Sounds like Daddy Dale shite to me with that Birch and 2 time loser Jones. Fire his arse and clean the AD department.
