Major Burns is playing very well in practice by all accounts.

At that time we all wanted him back hoping he got everything straightened out. We all hope he still gets his problems worked out but there is a lot of chatter over there that he had another episode. As great as he can be, I don’t want a cancer in the locker room. Good luck to Arik!

Yep. LSU fans will tell you that they are glad he’s gone and they didn’t want him anyways
I definitely wanted him, but if the kid doesn’t want to be here, then so be it. I think Gilbert should do what he thinks is best for him. I wanted him to get help here and stay, but he wanted to go home.

Honestly, I just hope the kid gets some help because he has some serious mental health problems. I’m not sure you know how serious.

Wait why is Arik at Georgia’s practice? I thought he was going to Florida?

At least that’s what was in the dollar general times

Bruh, LSU fans were saying they felt sorry for him and hoped he got his issues taken care of. Some wanted him back because he was good, others were concerned that he would be a locker room cancer. Quit trying to make up a false narrative.

Two months ago LSU fans loved him and wanted him back. “He’s gotten things together and is going to community college” they said. Now they all say he’s a lazy bipolar crack addict locker room cancer. Goes to show why everyone hates LSU fans.


Dude, that's everywhere. It's sports pragmatism.

When other SEC players get arrested for drugs, UGA fans talk about the thugs at those schools. When UGA players get busted for dope and guns, they talk about how the Athens PD is too tough on "kids that make a mistake".

When Justin Fields left the program, everyone all of sudden had all of this info on how his father was a bad guy, Fields couldn't figure out the playbook, Fields was a prima donna, Fields wasn't tough enough to battle for the job, etc.

After he succeeded at tOSU, then it was because Ryan Day's offense was easy and Day called all the audibles.

In reverse, when Kendrick got busted at Clemson, it was proof that Dabo was a fake Christian and such, but then when he transferred to play for us, "everyone deserves a second chance".

I only say this to be honest about our own fan base, but it really could be applied to every fan base throughout the conference. LSU fans ain't any better or worse than any other.

Yesterday: LSU fans start nasty rumors that he tried to fight Kirby and isn’t going to practice
Yesterday: UGA releases practice video showing he was at practice
Today: Monken says he’s doing a great job and has adapted well.

I simply think it’s important that we shut down any and all fake news around here
