The way he chose to end his LSU career was not admirable IMHO.

The guy fricking played his heart out most of the year while on a bad ankle and still racked up 850 yds on 6.5 ypc. That's pretty damn admirable IMO. He can only do so much on a bad leg before shutting it down and looking out for himself

My statement had nothing to do with his on-the-field performance during the season while he battled a serious injury. He manned up and played ball, as most true competitors would have done.

If you are fine with the way he handled the final days of his LSU career, then that's your opinion. I just feel like it would've been more admirable if the "look out for himself" could've waited a few weeks until his team finalized their season.

No big deal either way.
