Grant Williams is a savvy veteran. It can be frustrating when he plays against your team and he embellishes contact at times, but he's trying to get calls and help his team win. Tremont does the same thing too, so I think any LSU fan trying to vilify Grant is way off base. It's just part of the game.



He reminds me of some of those Duke players back in the day that would just infuriate the opposition with their play style.

Almost always makes the right play, willing to take a charge, initiates contact on the offensive end because he’s usually stronger than whoever is guarding him.

Grant is basically Tennessee’s version of Shane Battier

I don't have a dog in the hunt either way. I just think it's funny. Obviously, something happened to get ol' Penny all butthurt.

He deserved it at that time for crying like a little bitch after the game! So STFU.

That was a class statement by him but what was he suppose to say? I guess he could have went full retarded, but he didn't.

Is calling him "flop" and a dirty player trashing him?
Not sure if LSU fans but a few in a thread just recently did.


Well that's hardly the magnitude of "LSU fans have done nothing but trash him."

Sounds like a bright young man. One hell of a player as well.

It's okay for us LSU fans to put the chip on the shoulder act to rest for one thread...he didn't have to say all those nice things, but he did. That says "high character kid" to me.

I don't think calling him a flopper is "trashing" him.

I'm assuming that was in reference to people accusing him of flopping.


Rightfully calling someone a flopper is now trashing them? It’s stating a fact. He flops like a fish out of water

Lots of LSU fans in those threads praising Williams and Schofield. All you have is a bunch of post calling Williams a flopper and one post of a fan calling him a "bitch". Grant Williams isn't a bitch, but if you think that is proof that LSU fans have, "done nothing but trash the young man". You are kidding yourself.

Barnes would rather criticize officiating rather than accept that he lost to a team without two starters that day - Waters and non factor Reid.

Obviously the question was very baiting. Trying to get him to shite on Wade. I think it's an impressive/classy answer. Reads like a veteran coach.

I don’t see how anyone could not like Williams

He is a good kid who always wanted to be a Gator.



I can't blame him for that.

No he doesn’t. The only thing he’s “trashed” for is flopping (big deal) and most give him credit for being skilled getting to the line

It was a nice response, and he’s absolutely right. His answer was better and more thought out than a lot of hypocritical media hacks with a truckload of degrees on the matter
