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



Post a few above says the following;

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.


would you say that's trash?

I just feel like Willians is one of the more universally liked stars of this league the past 10 years. It’s hard to find reasons to dislike him other than him just being good

I seem to remember LSU posters giving a lot of credit to Schofield and how tough he was that particular game.

Williams is a really good player. He baited that official in the hopes he wouldn't call a foul on that play. It didn't work. Plain and simple. If he doesn't touch him the game goes to overtime and you have no complaint.

In this era of the one and dones, especially in this conference, where the players are basically mercenaries, guys that really couldn't care less about team achievement and want to just improve draft stock/spend 8 months in school and head to the league, he is a breath of Fresh Air.

What does this have to do with me saying calling a college kid a bitch uncalled for?

The main complaint I've heard from opposing fans besides the flopping is the talking and working of the refs constantly. It seems to have worked for him in SEC play, because I think he gets a very generous whistle, some of it deserved because of how skilled he is. He knows all the refs that do SEC games and has been talking to them for 40 minutes every game for 3 years but it's a little risky in NCAA Tourney play. All it takes is one ref who doesn't know you who thinks you're showing him up to put a couple ticky tack fouls and/or a technical on you.

No, it was right on. I did not see the one post by an LSU fan calling Williams a "bitch".

correct you can properly quote TD post.

Calling out Williams for flopping isn't trashing him.

I never claimed it was

You are using the defense that you didn't see one LSU fan post. That isn't what I'm talking about. You made the claim you haven't seen anyone trash Grant Williams.

If there is a universal truth about basketball (both at the college and NBA level), its that great players get a lot of calls. Williams is a great player and gets calls. I'm sure he gets a lot more now than he did two years ago.

If there is a universal truth about the Rant its that idiot fans exaggerate things. To say LSU fans have done nothing but trash Williams is beyond stupid.

that is correct, I didn't see that post. Is that really shocking?

Which is why I asked for links to anyone trashing a college basketball player.

Again this is correct I didn't see post by fans of opposing schools trashing Williams. Which seems to be accurate at this point. In the links provided by madmaxvol they have many post praising Williams. Seems he found one post by someone calling him a "bitch".

No, hence why I said "That isn't what I'm talking about"

You missed some then, not talking about the flopping ones.

Either way, plenty trash him in the same way any significant player in the SEC gets trashed by other fan bases. Not a big deal but fairly obvious.

I'm reminded of how shitty UT are. We almost forget because they have been irrelevant for so long at every sport, it isnt until know have they resurfaced.

"LSU fans" have not trashed grant williams. Quit inventing shite. So maybe one or two jerk off keyboard warriors talked trash. oooooooooooohhhhhh. thicken your skin, or, quit lying

Great quote by GW, definitely not indicative of the shitty fanbase he plays for

Very classy statements by a excellent college player, even if that hurts my soul to write that about a Tenner guy.
