OBJ is the worst “representative” of LSU. I really dislike him a lot.

Had to fly to Germany after the game. Turned on the TV and here on the ‘Top News’. Sadly, OBJ has become one of those celebrities is never told ‘No’.

With that said, behind closed doors, I think what he did was fabulous and it’s testiment to the fact that our team has integrity regarding the rules. Many of these guys going pro are poor - before they get a check, it’s great when friends and family can help them with the ability to celebrate a national championship.

The players going pro get a check the minute they sign with an agent. The second the game ended they were no longer poor.

So Burrow smoking a cigar, inside a no smoking facility not take a few Benji's thrown on the floor? When does it become legal for players not to except money after their eligibility is up?

LOL I guess you’ve never been to The Quarter after an event like this?

Umm and lol - The smart one’s don’t go with the first rapper they see after the game. Rules dictate they can’t even engage until the season is over. Most evaluate agencies/agents and this can take a few weeks.

If OBJ wants to give money and show class, he should donate to the Athletic Dept/TAF like the Honey Badger has done!

They're allowed to take "loans" the second their eligibility is done.

I don’t care about the cash at all, but he had to make a spectacle by doing it on camera in front of everyone. Loves to be the look at me guy.

The money that Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. distributed on the field after LSU's national championship victory Monday was real, Tigers quarterback Joe Burrow said in a podcast interview released Wednesday.

"I'm not a student-athlete anymore, so I can say yeah," Burrow said on the most recent episode of Barstool Sports' "Pardon My Take."



damn Burrow, throwing the program under the bus

OBJ is a total embarrassment to LSU. Cut ties with this jackass.

The sheer amount of butthurt, sandy vagina, and pearl-clutching ITT is unfathomable.

“Vacate titles?” Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves. Biggest weak sauce thread on the Rant in a long time. Nobody who was handed money has played a game for us since that moment, so how have we played ineligible players?

Chase Young got money from a person associated with the OSU program. He had to sit. BFD.

Y’all are crazy.

What happen to getting paid for their likeness? OBJ likes the players so he gave them $$$.

I bet the NCAA punishment will be LSU has to distance themselves from OBJ and a fine of $50,000 for the university.,

What a disrespectful self-centered ego-maniac. No question he should be banned not only from LSU athletics but NCAA athletics as a whole. LSU does not need or want him as a role model for these kids. We have the Geauxt Joey B for that now.
