re: Kirk Herbstreit spewing BS about how our team this year

The OBJ stuff is on OBJ, not LSU (except for letting that loose cannon on the sideline in the first place). His comment about Burrow is right--the only mitigating factor being that Burrow was still drunk when he did the podcast--he should have just declined until he sobered up.

Anyone siding with Kirk need to get the facts straight, the only who acting inappropriate was OBJ. All the current players were very humble and respectful at the trophy ceremony Joe went as far to thank the kitchen staff at the facility no player grab the Mic to promote themselves unlike the Clemson players from last year he quoted a known criminal, but Kirk is okay with that.
I'm tired of Kirk self righteousness of telling young men who put in so much work how to celebrate such a major moment.
I will never forget him trying to call out Joe for waving at the Texas crowd after they shot his jersey with a cannon.

Kirk Herbstreit is actually right... KH doesn’t have any gripes against LSU I wouldn’t think because in years past he has always shown LSU love in the preseason. If it’s about being great as a program then stuff like that shouldn’t happen.... What I don’t understand is there are threads bashing the Shiite out of ODB for what he did but people are having a problem with what KH is saying which a part of it is also bashing ODB for what he did... smh
Correct. Herby has been singing LSUs praises all season. He's correct and he's not the only one in the media. All I heard all day on ESPN radio is the OBJ shite. It's not because it's LSU it's because it was so far out of line. The dude should NEVER be allowed around this team again.
Posted on 1/16/20 at 8:17 pm to NorthTxLSU
Herbie is right. However, there’s nothing the coaches could do about the OBJ. There’s no way anyone knew he would do that. I was disappointed in Burrow tbh. Dude could have just pled the fifth or not commented. Just because you’re done at LSU doesn’t mean the program isn’t liable for shite. Only thing Burrow has ever done/said that rubbed me the wrong way.
ETA: I’m still blown away at the OBJ thing. Like how did he not know that would cause an issue? He was at LSU for 3 years he knows how the NCAA works. Why would he put the school he supposedly loves in that position. Just complete dumbassery on his part. There were a ton of other former Tigers there supporting the team and not showing their arse.

name one LSU player that acted out of line. i’ll wait
You're right, the security guard was involved for shits and giggles.
Like I said, the whole thing was over the top, but I loved it. I'm just laughing at the people who think it was OBJ only. I mean Joe walked off the field with a Big Dick Joe hat for frick's sake.

have no problem with O's policy, but the ball is in his court now. He must react and cut OBJ's access to the program and players. He needs to show all the players there are parameters and limits on their interactions. Fortunately, all the other former players have shown great maturity and would support him in his actions.
That's going a little to far with it. Orgeron should have a talk with Odell and remind him of how fricked up the media and the world is these days and how they will look to make a lot out of nothing and that Odell needs to be more aware of how his actions will be interpreted vis a vis the media and how they will project it onto the program and cast it in a negative light

At least we didn’t burn down our city like you see after so many championships. And Odell being a dick shouldn’t reflect on this GREAT team. So shove it up your butt herbie and go play with Saban.

Why the frick is Herb attacking LSU over douchebag OBJ’s actions? And all JB did was answer the question honestly.
i just find it amazing everyone here has no problem with herbstreit shitting on the team that had absolutely nothing to do with the way odell acted

OBJ officially speaking is problematic. Joe should have said nothing about it.

I can agree with this. Like I said, the genie can't be put back, but in the future OBJ should be told that he's no longer allowed on the sideline.

Don’t care. There will always be haters and trolls. Idiots in the news will always write crap that they think will foment the public and generate mouse clicks. Nothing will diminish my euphoria for the season certainly not players smoking cigars in a locker room. This is one for the history books. 10 years from now nobody will give a shite about this silly stuff that some of you are using to work yourselves into a tizzy over.

Holy shite. Do y'all really not get this?
OBJ was there as a representative of LSU. Like it or not.

People aren't pissed at what he said about PBJ, do you have reading comprehension issues?
People are pissed because he is acting like O and LSU put OBJ up to it and condined it, I promise had they had any inclination that he would do something like that he wouldn't have been invited.
Then he has an issue with them celebrating? Really?
And because of that, it shows the program wont be able to sustain?
It's a bad piece full of crap other than the OBJ shite, which everyone including LSU fans are aggravated with, well majority of LSU fans

Well then that means no players with eligibility took cash. Now, I think that is likely the case. But that has not been publicly acknowledged, although it is the scuttle but that the cash was given to all the guys that went out with OBJ after the game.
From what I've been hearing, all LSU has to do is make sure that none of the guys who are still eligible kept the money. I imagine that the NCAA will investigate because they have to, but I don't expect anything to come of it other than OBJ being told he can't be on the sidelines anymore. What he did was ridiculously stupid and irresponsible, but LSU shouldn't suffer for it.

Not a fricking thing to do with it. So he is wrong, very wrong.
The only bad look is actually an institutional one - we came out and tried to say it was fake money. That's embarrassing.

i suspect the people saying Herby is right are just hung up on the OBJ part of it. He's right about that part, but suggesting because of that and the celebrations means the program was all in just this year and doesn't care about 2020 and 2021 is not only wrong it makes no sense.
2019 was a veteran team, it seemed likely a lot of players would leave, especially as they played better. Assistants leaving is part of success. Then you look at next year's schedule and well, a step back (10-2/9-3) in 2020 should not be surprising. 2021 and beyond, is all up to Ed Orgeron the coches he hires and the players he recruits. There is very good reason for LSU fans to optimistic about 2021 and beyond.

The thing with Joe is he has a history on Twitter going back years where he thinks college football players should be paid. He is not a fan of the NCAA. I think his comments on PMT were his own personal F-U to the NCAA because he had played his last game and therefore is not duty-bound to their rules any longer. It wasn’t a “who cares about the program, I’m gone” comment.

Absolutely. He sounded like a rational person. I’m sure they’ll be a bunch of 19 year olds bitch about it though.

so you’re saying that someone associated with the LSU football team told him to go onto the field post game and hand money out to the players, correct? If not, than how is it in any way okay to shite on the team if they had nothing to do with it?
