I have to assume all college athletes want the success and fame that comes with their own success. The way they like to celebrate and bring attention to themselves shows they love the attention. So now that JM is getting all the fame he's ever wanted can he handle it? I guess we are gonna find out. I see him starting to crack. I think Cam handled it pretty well.

If not, does he have the "chest" to play for LSU?

Thus far he has proven that he does not. What he does in the future and how he learns from his mistakes has yet to be seen.

Cam was older, and he won the Heisman and the championship at the end of his college career. He knew that he was not coming back the next year, and he didn't disrespect his school.
He was more mature than Little Johnny and apparently his dad was also.

Define "handle".

Do you mean in his personal life or on the field?

Those are completely different things for Johnny.

Personally, he's already proven he can't handle it. On the field, being hated-on and doubted seem to make him BETTER. See: last year's OU game. Word from practice yesterday is that he was throwing fricking lasers and looks better than ever.

I think you can answer this all on your own.

I also think you're trolling like 80% of the other threads on SECR

His fame came with the freshman Heisman. How he handles it is evidenced by his actions after it. In that, you have your answer.

I think JFF is the new SEC Honey Badger, he doesn't really appear to give a shite.
