So is Marshall no longer a "true Tiger"?

Just trying to keep track of who this fanbase disowns because a player did something they don't agree with.

We putting Marshall on the same list with Ja'Marr Chase, Greedy Williams and, of course, Eric Reid?

You forgot Burrow and his support of his black teammates

It's funny that Burrow got a pass for that by this board.

I see it as something that will make fans mad now, but that they won’t hold against Marshall long term. They’ll talk about it through the draft, and maybe grumble a little next season, but they’ll get over it. In a couple years, no one will care about him opting out. However, if after opting out, he publicly trashes his time at LSU a la Ben Simmons, then he’ll be permanently disowned.

You must have not been on the board when he first tweeted about it.

Simmons didn't trash LSU, he trashed the sham that is him having to play college basketball.

Who makes that decision? Is there a vote?

I love how Ben Simmons’ comments continues to get misconstrued.

Chase opted out before the season. Williams and Marshall quit on the team during the course of the season. Different situations. Reid is just a race baiter and piece of shite. Glad to clear it up for the terminally dumb.

They are Tigers. We love them. We are their fans forever. However, Marshall should have finished the year.

He is a first round pick. He should go Pro. But What message does he send his fans and his underclassmen team mates by calling a players only meeting then quitting a week later?

I hate that for him. But it defines him.
Our actions always DEFINE US...

If he starts balling out in the nfl I don’t think anyone will hold it against him. If he flops then the idiots will come out to kick him while he’s down with “shoulda stayed” shite

So who do you claim as a Tiger among these?

He was part of the best team in CFB history. He's a true tiger. People are just frustrated at the moment. Let's be honest, he's one positive tweet away from being back in their good graces.

If you can’t grasp the difference between Chase and Marshall’s situations, I can’t help you.

Where did I say they were the same situation?

Sounds like you may be the one who needs help, friend.

No. Marshall is on a much worse list than those guys.

Seems more less the same to me

Draft stock isn't getting any higher

Risk out ranks reward of playing

he didn't have to play college ball. It's the NBA's rule that a player has to be one-year out of high school. Has nothing to do with colleges.

Simmons could've played internationally for a year out of high school, or he simply could've sat out a year.

He wasn't forced to play college basketball. Not even close.

He's also on the list of LSU players that have caught a TD pass in a national championship game.

Seems like a pretty fair trade-off.
