re: How would you feel if your teammate got paid and then cost the team every accolade

You seem to be reacting more and more emotionally with each post. Seems as though I’ve struck a nerve.
I have never said that Baton Rouge is without any issue. So I’m not entirely sure what you’re arguing against. No city is without their issues. But here’s the thing, there is at least something in Baton Rouge other than college football.
What’s there to do in Tuscaloosa? Honestly, outside of Alabama football what is there to do? Tuscaloosa is a small town plagued with ineptitude and thuggery, and has nothing whatsoever worth while, but it has a good college football team. So that apparently makes it good?
Listen, if you are comfortable with living in or around Tuscaloosa then good for you. I for one expect more from life than college football and thuggery..

y could honestly give a shite about what any of you think. They have been through hell together and when they get on that court it is something special. They all fn love Javonte and could care less what happens in the long run, no one will ever take that title from them in their minds

You're all over the board here, bozo. Are we talking about there being nothing to do in Tuscaloosa, or that the place is a dangerous "shite hole" with nothing but thugs?
I grew up in Tuscaloosa and went to UA. For me, there was plenty to do, and when I wanted a change of scenery there were plenty of convenient alternatives. The vast majority of the students attending/attended will tell you as much.
Now if you're referring to the "shite hole, thug" part, then you're obviously a ridiculously stupid hypocrite to talk down a place when your school town in 22nd in the nation in murders per capita.
The bottom line to all this is that you're probably a kid...and a rather stupid one at that.

I am not trying to bash LSU, because every team winning big is paying players. But is it is silly acting like he is the only one on LSU getting paid. Wade said him self they had made easier deals with players just as good or better than Smart. He just didn't name any other names during that call.

several of them got paid. Smart isn't responsible for being exposed. Between the bagman and Wade.

These kids don't care about the schools. Their AAU teams mean more to them. College has been forced upon them, so they go wherever they get the best offer.

I think you nailed it right there. A huge proportion of college athletes have absolutely no business in college. Their ACT/SAT scores are low, they have no interest in real education, and all this is made evident by their inability to speak even rudimentary English. But, I'm not bashing them. They have talent that can make them millions and there's no reason they should even have to play NCAA ball.

Let the ones that are extremely talented with athleticism go straight to the pros where they ought to be. This "one and done" bullshite kills college programs. Not to mention, if the NCAA allows the "one and done" scholarships it only shows that the NCAA is about the money and that they could give a tinker's damn about whether athleticism benefits a college student.

The NCAA is about lining their own pockets at the expense of athletes in their late teens and early twenties - youngsters who are too naive to understand how they are being played by a corrupt system.

Vecchio Cane - you speak great truth. (I also think I might know some of your relatives if they live on the MS Gulf Coast. Dion comes to mind if that means anything.)

You don't think college players know that star players are being paid? We knew that in school way back when I attended. Everyone knows.

They play for Wayde Sims..are a family..you wouldn't understand Ms Garrison..you rarely do..mostly appear a low IQ poor poster...an angry troll.

Never said Louisiana was the greatest state.
But Louisiana is far greater than Alabama. Alabama talking shite about any other state is about like a person who drives a Prius talking shite about anyone else’s car. It just doesn’t work.
