Excuse me, but I didn't see Joe or anybody else handing out Benji's on the sidelines, except your boy OBJ.

OBJ was euphoric as a former player and now a fan. Burrow was euphoric as (one of) 'the' player(s) who made it happen.

HUGE difference.

OBJ is not my boy. And everyone deserves criticism, including the 23 yr old QB who admitted to taking cash before declaring for the draft.

The whole episode was doused in stupidity.

I think at the least a ban from LSU facilities for awhile would be good. OBJ was/is a great ballplayer, however he has an "all about me" attitude that grates on people. Instead of the country talking about possibly the greatest team we will see in our lifetime everyone is talking about OBJ!

Who was the reporter on national tv during the post game interview with Queen and Coach O, who asked Queen with the very last question if he received any cash from OBJ. Queen said he got none and Coach said first he heard of it.

OBJ apparently caught whatever affected Antonio Brown.

Couldn't believe my eyes when watching the post game.

OBJ's an idiot. NCAA is all about appearances. OBJ did this with network and cellphone cameras everywhere.

Honestly, how many cash "bonuses" do you think the players are being given by the boosters on the DL.

Burrow didn't help out on PMT either. He could've easily Sgt. Schultzed it instead of confirming it.

OBJ could've just handed them the money when they were celebrating at the Penthouse club and this wouldn't have been a problem if he wanted to be the modern day Luke Skyywalker.

These are the rules that we play by. These are the rules that govern the NCAA that everyone signs on.

If you are going to hand out money in front of God and everyone after the game to current or just recently former players who still their jersey on, then Forever LSU means nothing to you.

If you are going to take that money ON THE FIELD knowing full and well what you are doing then Forever LSU means nothing to you.

Burrow, as a fricking college graduate with a Masters degree, and the leader of this team, should have had the common sense to say, simply, "No Comment." No friggin' comment.

There was fricking video of it before burrow said anything, and the money in the video is clearly real.

The LSU staffer who said it was fake before doing the investigation is the dolt.

OBJ will apologize and that will be it.

he hasn't apologized yet? apparently he doesn't feel the need to do so.

he may apologize but he'll only do so cause of pressure.

I don't expect he will apologize. That requieres class. He has none.

LSU will likely limit him but then this a-hole will likely start saying he got paid while at LSU. True or not will just make this a bigger problem that it already is.

This is why other coaches keep former players at a distance. This is what did Miami.

To be fair, every other former player we have are good representatives. This jackass is the only one who is consistently acting a fool.

I agree. Still you are inviting trouble when access is ulimited.

It's beyond disgraceful what he did.
