LSU Football: There won’t be any special treatment for star players

LSU football head coach Ed Orgeron made it clear on Tuesday that there won’t be any special treatment for the Tigers’ top players.

In fact, Orgeron said he’ll actually be tougher on LSU’s premier players.

Coach O, who was appearing on 104.5 in Baton Rouge, said on Tuesday that players like wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase will be held to a higher standard. Orgeron said he “will not let it slide” if those players mess up.

This is a tremendous approach by Orgeron. This is how championships programs operate.

There are far too many teams, both at the collegiate level and the pro level, where star players receive preferential treatment.
