You “passionate” fans who jump on social media/message boards after every game do way more damage than you think. I said that during the season and people said players don’t read/google themselves. I’d say 95% of college kids read everything about themselves. So if you’re getting negativity, you perceive the fans as not loyal; why wouldn’t you jump at a few extra hundred thousand, nicer facilities, and bigger conferences? Now go to mesafoundationsd.org and donate.

I use to have the take about not being negative on players. I think that went out the window when fans are now investing in the NIL and now basically paying these players salaries. If it wasn’t for the fan, these players wouldn’t be paid. You should be open to criticism if you are being paid. From here on out these adults will be compensated and reviewed for their performance.
Now, I don’t think fans should @players and players who search their own name shouldn’t be surprised what they find.

If this is a reason to leave it will be far worse elsewhere such as Columbus, Ohio and Lexington, KY. |

Social media is a cesspool and anyone who chooses to spend time there that is in the public eye is going to get their share of idiots posting junk about them. If you are that soft and can't handle it - stay off social media.

If someone's paying you a salary and giving you bad reviews each week, are you more inclined to put your resume out there and if a higher paying job comes about take that instead?

Think of how thin-skinned Micah is if he can't handle being called an average player. He is going to be roasted in Columbus.

So the fans insulting the players get called out and their response is to insult the players. That is just too royal for words. These keyboard commanders need to up their games as their inconsistent and mediocre posts are getting tired and stale.

It’s crazy that a college a player is telling fans to pony up more money for their “salary” after they already buy tickets, cheer, support and travel for and with the team but you are not allowed to criticize their play. Oh yeah the full scholarship is worthless too. Incredible.

Micah is just trying to rationalize his decision to leave. He isn't leaving because of the fans. That is silly. He is leaving because he wants to make more money.

He’s honestly pretty stupid if he thinks Ohio St is more tame than SDSU fans. He’s in for a rude awakening when a 1-7 performance costs them a game. Gonna be hell.

It's just not true. Buying a ticket is different than paying a salary. They are asking fans to pay salaries. But I agree with the ticket because that just went towards the athletic program and not someone’s car. |
