Three black males? Round up the athletic department and look for the usual suspects

Make them paint a building or 2 since they like playing with paint.

Boys will be boys people! Make 'em run up and down the stadium til they puke. Not for shooting paint gun, but for getting caught!!!

LSU Tiger Eyes•95 months

Perfect time for Coach Wade to set the tone! Off with their heads.

Stopped watching last year, so I'm not sure if these guys are any good. If not, 3 additional scholly's for some 5 star recruits :) That's how I see it.

tjohn deaux•95 months

Member when those three wanted to play basketball at a high level?

thejudge•95 months

They were outed pretty easily as they were holding the paintball guns sideways.

You're trying to hard.

Dignan•95 months

If this were last year's team, I wouldn't worry that their shots were on target.

LSUcrawfish•95 months

This is why I stop buying season tickets to football and basketball. I not going to support with my money all these trouble makers.

BigTimer23•95 months

You write off entire teams because of the actions of a few individuals? Sure issues arise, some more serious than others, but to cast such a wide net referring to "all these trouble makers" is just incredibly short sided

I'm sure someone thanks you for openng up seats for them. Thanks grandpa.

Fitting for 5 and 6 year olds who haven't learned that this is inappropriate behavior. If you're in college and haven't figured this out, you're a special kind of stupid.

CL8100•95 months

discipline those ghetto criminals or kick them off the university, probably all trouble anyway. they were under johnny jones and learned nothing

Water Mocassin•95 months

When did we allow 12 year olds to be on campus?

I am GLORIOUS•95 months

I guarantee that if a video surfaced of 3 young black guys doing drive-by shootings with a paintball gun on innocent unsuspecting people that people would be irate, wanting arrests, etc. The only reason why people aren't saying that now is because they're LSU players.

SNOWFLAKE U. Very dissapointed in some of the responses...... Get a life.

BayouBengal99•95 months

We used to take super soakers at the wee hours of the morning and yell run before blasting people with em cold or hot mornings. Some people would laugh some would be pissed but never hurt anyone. Keep it simple kids.

lsutigermall•95 months

like the new softer bb's, paintballs do sting but come on already. Up and down my block, kids play with both all the time. 18 years old, possibly after a few beers with a paintball gun, poor judgement but this is no big deal...

LoveThatMoney•95 months

That's called assault and battery.

KillTheGophers•95 months

Is this wrong? Should they have not done that?

monsterballads•95 months

shooting paintballs at people not involved in a game is wrong. you're welcome.

BTRDD•95 months

At least we can talk about something else and take our minds off of the 0-2 CWS final.
