For a 7 game season, with little chance of making the CFP. LSU has a problem with agents, I don't see any other alternative theory. CEO is just too nice for his own good and needs to run a tighter ship

I thought the Pac12 soys weren’t playing because they were oppressed by muh society

I don't think we can make fun of them anymore when their players are opting in after having basically no hope of a season and ours flat out quit when we knew there's be some kind of season. Expect Washington and Oregon both to get some guys back soon

What do you want him to do exactly? Threaten Chase with physical violence?

He needs to do make sure these snakes don't influence players. Saban always talked about how much he hated agents, I guarantee he wouldn't allow them near his players. Cristobal is a hard arse too.

Are any of Oregon’s players going to sniff the first round?

Penei Sewell is top 10 even if he opts out I'd think

4 actually if you count Nelson Jenkins but I dont think anyone really cares that much there

Hard to argue the 3 main guys we had opt out though weren't gigantic hits to the roster. Best reutnring defensive linemen, best returning WR and our starting nickelback.

Heck just having Vincent alone back could have made a huge difference in MSU game with Stingley out.

Every nfl caliber player has a problem with agents. It's not just LSUs players. Agents are massive pieces of shite. Will tell a kid anything to try and make a commission. LSU just always happens to have alot of nfl talent on it's roster, and you're crazy if you think that these players that obviously are going pro at some point aren't talking to agents while at their particular school...maybe even receiving something from them while still playing college ball.

Has everyone already forgotten that we had one opt back in, too? Don’t act like that number was zero.

Wouldnt be surprised if the agent/agency repping a lot of the guys from the 2019 team end up as J.Chase, K.Vincent, and T.Shelvins agent.

This is a terrible take. The agents are just telling the kids the truth about playing for themselves. It’s really the fans and the coaches who are the pieces of shite - expecting players to sacrifice their precious earning years so we can make money or enjoy our Saturdays.

Agents are basically pimps and you're a pos for supporting them and guys who quit on their team for no decent reason. Players, coaches and fans are interdependent: without donations, ticket and merchandise sales, etc. from fans the players and coaches would be in a different line of work, good players can make coaches look better than they are and vice versa
