Is there any other fan base that clings to the success of former players like LSU fans do?
I get following former players, but the LSU obsession with former players is just downright unhealthy. Not to mention their obsession with the size of Burrow's penis makes A&M fans seem heterosexual.

It’s pretty good optics for a recruit when you see a fanbase show love to a former player.
But this same site also accused LSU fans of throwing players like Eric Reid and Ryan Clark under the bus.

It's a bit odd.
UGA fans have the other starting super bowl QB but you barely see us mentioning it. We're pulling for him and that's about the extent of it.
LSU fans not only are obsessed with burrow being here, some are actually convinced him and chase will have EXTRA motivation to win because of the bad call by the refs with the rams against the saints several years ago

Joe endeared himself to the fans of LSU more than what Stafford did for UGa, at least I’m willing to bet. That’s not a knock on Staff. Burrow also engineered one of the best seasons ever for a team and individual. It’s not totally an apples to apples comparison.

unhealthy? Is there a basis for being a fan that's healthy? Or is there a chart that shows which basis for being a fan of something or someone is more healthy than another? TIA
This how the board operates
1) LSU or former LSU player wins and/or does well, LSU fans post about and the board calls them obsessed or accuses LSU fans of spamming the board
2) LSU or former LSU player loses and/or does poorly, this board creates 8463453 threads trolling said team or player
rinse, repeat
It's the epitome of the picture below and inarguably correct

Hendrickson and Bell were on that legendary 2018 Saints team that got robbed of a trip to the Super Bowl so you know they'll want revenge. Burrow grew up idolizing Drew Brees so he'll want to avenge his idol being robbed of a well-deserved storybook ending to his career. Chase was born and raised in Jefferson Parish and was most likely a huge Saints fan growing up as well.

No, there isn't.
I do find it rather interesting that you are on a message board dedicated to college football and you find it downright unhealthy to follow something college football related.

Wrong.
We promote our former student athletes as a vehicle to attract future talent to LSU. Think about how many young ballers watched that game yesterday and saw all the LSU hype that went with it.
It's just business my man.

You linked a post made by a Saints fan that was ridiculed by two LSU fans. Try again.

It’s called support. Players aren’t treated like pieces of meat and discarded when they leave here. Once a tiger, always a tiger. LSU opens doors for you.

So you guys shitposting here about former players in the NFL is going to give LSU some kind of recruiting edge?
Honest question.
Honest question.

There were threads about he and Whitworth making the super bowl as well

Because he got the school in trouble for handing out $100 after their title game and was banned from campus for so many years? Why are you being dumb about this?
