As we see every season, LSU players are constantly opting out/quitting their bowl game. And sometimes they even opt out/quit the entire season (2020). This is not a winning/healthy culture.

Take Alabama for instance. They didn't accomplish their goals this year, but the best players still played in their bowl game and wanted something to prove. The players respect the coach and the program. LSU players don't respect theirs and it's not good for the program.

It's going to be tall task for Brian Kelly to get this under control. I don't think he can, but I've been wrong in the past so we'll see.

Alabama opted out with players playing. Just ask Oklahoma and Utah.

What about Boutte - is that the correct spelling of his name? Is he playing today?

He also has to get them to stop stealing money from kids with cancer.

LSU is a mess.

I'd say that there's between 31 - 32% of that taking place


So there's nearly a 70% chance LSU had a gangbang last night?

No, they are not.

Also, all accounts againstLes Miles have been dismissed.

Learn your facts.

This definitely goes back to the Miles years at LSU and continued through the shrimp boat captain. A way to keep talent at home was to show that LSU was a conduit to the NFL whereby the program could make them wealthy in a hurry with that being the only consideration.

It was rampant and the former #7 (Boutte) reflected that bullshite "me" over team way of thinking. Hopefully, Brian Kelly will continue to instill a new culture. There will always be early defectors from any program, but the quit at the first sign of trouble or when it doesn't fit the me first attitude must end.
