No LSU fans will see the irony of "we need to grab a player at _____ position in the portal" while at the same time motherfricking a kid to death for transferring from LSU.

We wish him the same NFL success that former LSU DB’s Savion Smith and Phelon Jones enjoyed when they quit on LSU and headed to Tuscaloosa.

I bet you can't count the number of players quitting on their old schools prior to entering LSU in baseball and football (Johnson and Kelly). You think those two didn't absolutely crush the portal? Good for the goose - you know the rest.

He was unable to to be drafted since he’s still being blocked by Brian Thomas Jr down Darymple Dr from the TD run by Daniels.

So this isn't an isolated incident. LSU is officially the saltiest fanbase on the planet. I don't know any 'Bama fans that will actively root against Billingsley or Hall to eventually succeed in the NFL just because they transferred to Texas, much less celebrate when they go undrafted.

frickin' corndogs, man.

Treason against LSU will cost a man something. Ricks' cost was not getting drafted. His cost is it won't be as easy nor as lucrative as it could've been. It's the price that must be paid. Just reaping what he sowed


Treason it’s college football. LSU fans need literal therapy to deal with their Bama obsession

Wasn’t Saban’s fault the guy was lazy and didn’t give a shite. There’s a reason he didn’t start until later in the season. Can’t blame Saban for poaching him from LSU even if he shite the bed there


Was he a Spy for LSU?

LSU fans "death to anyone who ever transfers from LSU or to any Louisiana kid who ever goes to another school"

Also LSU fans "did you hear about the awesome transfer player we got and the out of state kid we pulled out from under X school?"

If a player transferred from Alabama to Auburn, talked shite on his way out the door, then picked his number as a troll to Alabama fans I’m sure your fan base would be totally fine with it

He was injured, and then his dumbass decided to declare early. He just had too much LSU in him to make a smart business decision.

It's the world we live in now due to transfer portal. All programs are going to lose players and get players that transfer in. My best guess with Ricks and why he isn't respected by the LSU fan base is becuase he transferred within the division. Had he transferred to Ohio State, USC, FSU, etc I don't believe you would see the same vitriol.
