He broke the record, then at halftime Kelly told him to let the other WRs take it from there as to not risk injury ahead of the NFL Draft - where he's projected as one of the first WRs taken in Round 1.

"He fought me a little bit on it," Kelly said. "I think he’s the best receiver in the country. And he played in this game. He wanted to do it for his teammates. He wanted to do it for LSU. He wanted to do it to break the record. And I think that’s great."

Yet, there’s an annoyed poster on page 1.

I hope all the figs who were calling him out after halftime are reading this.

I doubt they will though.

Have no problem with this at all. Good for him. Hope he makes a shitload of money.

Good. Glad he broke the record and didn’t get injured. Now we get to watch him on Sundays

Do you think the annoyed poster knew this? You act like he knew it and he’s annoyed anyway.

Think Kelly is covering for him but it doesn’t bother me either way. Not sure why some care so much

BTJ hasn’t declared for the draft yet as far as we know

It’s obvious with anyone with a brain that Kelly told JD to not play

Ya think? Look, if that's what happened then I owe Nabers an apology. But, damn if BK took our best player out of the game like that then I have other questions.

Y’all really believe this? Y’all don’t think Kelly knows, statistically speaking, there’s virtually no chance of nabers getting hurt? This is just Kelly taking any possible heat off of Nabers. This is just the way things are now. Bowl games are not a big deal anymore and will be even less of a big deal as time moves forward.

Remember when Malik muffed two punt returns in the dome? ESPN did not show boobies on National braoadcast that night.

It doesn’t matter if this is true or not. Either way it is a good move by Kelly by protecting either the health or people’s uneducated judgement of a player to help draft stock.

Malik 100% should’ve sat out once he got the record, he earned it and 1st round draft prospects should generally sit out in my humble opinion if it isn’t the playoffs.

I agree, but why didn't Brian Thomas sit out? Is he coming back?

I would be shocked.

If you truly believe that Brian Kelly is the one that held Nabors back you’re a fool
