we came out and tried to say it was fake money. That's embarrassing



Maybe the information they had at the time showed fake money, evidently there was fake money scattered on the field according to Jordy and t Bob this morning I believe.

Then once Joe's comments came out they realized there was more to it and corrected.

It happens.

OBJ got drunk and acted out a tad.

To criticize Burrow for telling the truth is bush league in my opinion. Maybe he shows his own lack of character if he believes Burrow should have lied about it.

Players and coaches alike praised everyone involved in the LSU program from the president of the university to the janitor in the football ops building.

I’ve respected how LSU players and coaches deflected praise from themselves to others all season long.

Finally, Clemson doesn’t have near the longevity LSU has sustained. If LSU played in their bs conference, our very worst teams would have likely found their way into the playoffs.

All I'm saying is that LSU's post game celebration, as a whole, was over the top.


Because you had unprecedented access to it from your mobile device.


Probably true, which is why I have said many times I was fine with it.

Yeah I don’t care if a player spikes a ball after scoring a touchdown and I damn sure don’t care if they roll around in piles of money or smoke cigars in a locker room after winning a national title. Herbstreit is offering his opinion to he can feel important even though the off season is here and we don’t have to look at his alcohol soaked cheeks and ugly suits every Saturday until September rolls back around.

This. Even if I disagree, he made good points. And I don’t really care for him.

Hell, this likely helps our recruiting more than it hurts it. Do you want to play for a program that wins national championships and actually has fun doing it or feel like if you don’t win that you’re scum?

Maybe if we win another we don’t go as hard, but that’s the most fun a team and fan base may ever have winning a National Championship.

The money was a bad look but Burrow was right he is not a student athlete anymore. Also Burrow reaches his lifelong goal hoisting that trophy.

He. Is. Done. With. The. NCAA and their BS.

OBs look was bad but frick it.

If it pisses you off, it should be because he’s right.

We gonna just act like the team didn't just smoke a frick ton of cigars when it's clearly not allowed? 

Please tell me this is sarcasm.


It got security and the police involved, did it not?

Again, I don't agree with any of Kirk's conclusions, but I can understand what he sees. Was it mostly Beckham? Sure, and most of this is probably overlooked without him, but I can see how someone sees the more minor stuff and worries it could be a problem.

I disagree, but I'm also not blind.

Or, they asked the players who recieved it and those guys lied. Surely we would ask the actual people involved, no?

Sure they celebrate, sure they’re happy, but guess what: they have freshmen that are watching, they have sophomores that are watching, they care about the health of their program.


How does he draw the conclusion that this team doesn’t care about the underclassmen?

OBJ is a fool and not on staff or part of the program. He was a guest that did stupid shite.

And most likely the vast majority of players found out about his dumbass antics like the rest of us, on social media. To cast a wide net like this is the culture of LSU is irresponsible.

See how that works? It's easy to spin the story however you want. The media wasn't in our corner before Monday night, and they won't be in the off-season either.



I repeat, I truly hate the media.

Yep. This is Herbstreit jumping at the chance to criticize us. He rode Ohio state and Clemson all year. You know it pissed him off to see his darlings lose

He’s like the rest of those jackass hypocrites
