Do you think that the ESPN broadcast for 3 hours will paint us in a positive or negative light? I mean is has been negative for a week now but I also see it starting to turn. Add to that, the atmosphere on one of the most historic college football campuses…

I actually think we will see a shift in the narrative tomorrow and that the panel will actually agree with or at least see the LSU side of things.

I pray there is a segment about all the current players who are on rosters that went to the draft, and mini camps

They don't want shite thrown at them. They'll save all the sly comments about LSU for week 3.

They will play both sides.

They will give the appearance of balance while painting LSU potential players as “ex-NFL” and everyone else’s as “poor kids forced into the draft/minicamp process”

It’s going to be more annoying than if they just came out and said “We hate Kiffin”

I think Nick has Terry here and no matter what you say the other hosts are scared of nick. Reese Davis was positive today saying all college players are pro athletes
I expect them to say lets just play football

I honestly think they’re going to keep the talk mostly about football. I think they give 1 or 2 thoughts on it then just focus on the game

I’m sure it will be discussed and mentioned ad nauseam. I think they’ll try to be neutral but that remains to be seen. Nick will save us.

Overall negative.

It won't be blatant...but despite all the positives of the players and stellar staff and the likely outcomes, they will leave a negative fog over their broadcast.

Because they can't help themselves. By nature they are journalists working for liberal institutions. And we have a highly involved Republican governor.

So yeah, objective reporting is not possible. Its us against the world.

Phuck em. We are NFLSU.

Rece and Desmond today both said it’s ridiculous to call these guys former nfl players

It will be positive. There is no bad publicity.

Disagree. They are going to try to start repairing the LSU/SEC relationship because that is in ESPN’s interest. And, tbh, it’s in LSU’s and the SEC’s interest.

Saban will find a way to neutralize the other opinions. Macafee wants to be the popular public guy. I don’t think it’s going to be as bad as we perceive.

I expect Kirk to be against it and Rece and Desmond to argue the other side based on their comments. Saban will say something to the effect of we need better rules about 100 times.

Both ways. But Saban will side with us but not say it. You will tell by his comments

Gameday will be rooting for US Marshals to arrest Coach Kiffin on the sidelines right before the opening kickoff.
