Amongst this generation of college players. Which makes sense after we all watched “generation talent” Leonard quit on football all together after going pro.

And look how shitty he’s been in the nfl. Terrible teammate and terrible attitude.

Not defending him completely but McCaffrey did as well.

LF7 was legit hurt most of that season with that hamstring and ankle.

He never lives up to his full potential at LSU and then just completed the bust in the NFL.

He would have contributed more to the team by opting out during his 1.3 YPC Bama games.

In his case it was the right thing to do. He wasnt good.

He's got a point. It's remarkable that Alabama can keep such a good culture. We had 1st round draft picks playing in the Citrus Bowl.

It just makes me shiver how wholesome Alabama is.

This shouldn't surprise anyone. LSU's culture is trash.

The man gets game checks worth more than generations of your family.

I think he did ok.

Worse thing was he tried to fight UF players before the hurricane makeup game and then chose not to play. Ironic as it probably won us the game.

Not sure why everyone gets so bent out of shape about skipping bowl games. They mean nothing and meant less than nothing outside the last few decades. The AP vote used to come before the bowl season because they are, and have always been, exhibition games.

He had no choice, it came out that he had contact with an agent.
