Born and raised in Louisana and you can't blame a guy who wants to stay home and close to family. Would love to take a shot at Frost here (because rolling Nebraska fans is so much fun) but this isn't on him.

I think MnB is trying to deflect since everyone seems to be jumping off of the Michigan boat.

Sounds like he didn't like being at Nebraska.


"Joseph uses his own experiences as reasons why current recruits should stay home and play for LSU"

Ouch

I don't know man. They convinced him to leave his family and play in Nebraska once already and while a salary of $310,000 isn't chump change, my guess is that it would at least double (if not more) with the titles they were going to give him at Nebraska. That's a lot of money to turn down.

Quality of life doesn't revolve around just money. Dude needs his coon and gator sandwiches.

For another $300,000 he could have live ones flown into Nebraska lol

When you're 18 years old, it's pretty appealing to leave home for a new adventure, especially when you have the chance to play for one of the most legendary coaches of all-time.

When you're in your 40s, it's nice to be near family and embrace stability. LSU just won the NC, he's clearly doing a great job with WRs, and the odds are he'll be in line for a promotion at LSU sooner rather than later. This was a dumb thread, but it is the offseason I suppose.

Never a bad day to LOL at nebraska. Having a former player turn down a but load more money, promotion in title, to stay a position coach at LSU is funny no matter how you look at it.

From up here, it looks like a smart move by him, and most fans see it that way. Can't relate to the petty things michigan fans need to amuse themselves these days, I guess.

Would you rather be the backup on a title winning team or the starter on a below average team?

Bird pecking at my window sill must be urging me to leave work early. I'm whiter than mayonnaise, but Monday's MLK Day, and he was my boyhood hero. Really, his assassination caused me to see the world through the glass darkly. Evil was no longer an abstract concept for me. I saw it lurking in the lazy voluntary ignorance of working white folks everywhere. Let me leave in a hour, boss...
