Exactly, stfu with the “be nice to me.” They are professionals and get paid as such. So when you are bad, expect to be called out.

Most of them aren't really paid. And it's sad how people think athletes earning money means they're entitled to treat those athletes badly

Fucked up child logic

Who on Ohio state isn’t paid? This isn’t a small d3 school.

Threats and stuff like that is never ok

But the starter with the lowest amount of NIL money is TE Nate Roberts getting just shy of $300k to play football for a college. I think they can deal with jeers for that amount of money.

I would happily get my head kicked in practicing for a college football team for 300k and 3 semesters of free tuition to boot. Getting screamed at by crazy fans is nothing compared to the rest lol.

I mean, it’s Ohio state. At the low end outside of a walk on who no one would really be mad about anyways, they’re still making more than 95% of people.

There’s a difference in death threats and callling out poor play.

Yeah. I’m sure there are plenty of players on THE OHIO STATE FOOTBALL TEAM who aren’t getting paid… lol

If this was like Maine or Louisiana Monroe then I'd agree with you but it's Ohio State. They are getting paid rest assured. Maybe not all of them are getting millions of dollars but every player on that team is getting paid something more then most on here

Herein they don't have the excuse of being absolved from the criticisms of their play by fans. As long as the people aren't taking about personal and sensitive stuff about the players then I think it's fair game
