For everyone that is mad


Jan 5, 2019, 10:46 PM

Let me explain a few things to you so we can move on.

247 actually asked Feaster about this last week at the Cotton Bowl, and he answered in much the same way, and I didn't see the backlash I see here. And, gasp, Clemson won that game DESPITE the question because they were the better team that night and stuff like that is more of a distraction for fans than it is players.

Paul Strelow of Tiger Illustrated also asked Feaster about it today. Why? Because that's our job, and we have very few opportunities with any players or coaches. I can't ask him after because we are not allowed to talk to team members.

Also, after the question was asked last week and it was published and was all over social media, my boss (the one who owns this site and pays the bills) instructed me to ask Tavien today. That was an order and I like my job and I followed directions.

I went up to Tavien, told him the nature of the question and asked if he minded. He, of course, said no, because after last week he knew it was coming and he's very gracious and we've had a great relationship since he was in high school. His dad and I are friends.

So if you're mad at me for reporting something that had already been reported, and would be reported elsewhere, and for doing my job, then you're just gonna have to be mad.

As for the team, if you think anything like this is a distraction you just don't get it or get how this team operates. Over the last few weeks, players like Tanner Muse, Isaiah Simmons, K'Von Wallace, and Tre Lamar have been asked ad nauseum about leaving early for the NFL Draft. It's the same thing we've reported on over the last few weeks (even a few days before the Cotton Bowl), and nobody said a word.

I get it - everybody is on edge. A big game is coming up and people are nervous and have angst and feel the need to get angry. When they get angry, they lash out. If you gotta be angry at me, then so be it. I will wake up next week happy regardless.
