Let’s get a few things straightened out here

Tweeting derogatory comments directly at individual kids (ala LSU barstool) is embarrassing. Sad look.

BUT ALSO. Players taking a couple tweets (primarily in reference to barstool “begging Harris to transfer to Tulane”) and then building an “us against the fans” narrative around it is utter BS.

The reality is 99.9% of our fans are looking at Bo Pelini (and perhaps a little suspicious side-eye on coach O for the lazy hire and defensive comments) after a historically bad start.

You would think someone had sent in death threats to players. We’re talking about a single tweet that, while in bad taste, certainly wouldn’t have made me lose any sleep.

What happened to block out the noise?

Nobody was going to notice a couple of screaming coonasses — but you know what people will notice? Players.

They will bear responsibility for creating any negative narratives about our culture that stick — not a handful of drunk mouthbreathing dudes with high school diplomas.

If they have an issue with an account on Twitter, they should confront that account directly (way more fun anyway).

So to be clear, I’m upset with those players. Not this board or the fans.
