A day after LSU Tigers receivers coach Billy Gonzales took the Illinois offensive coordinator job, former pupils Terrence Toliver and Russell Shepard decided to burn a Twitter bridge or two. Shepard fired on his way out of Baton Rouge, while Toliver did so from a distance, as he's already on a NFL practice squad roster:
LSU Wide Receiving Corps Not The Happiest Place In The World
@TToliver80 I regret not declaring for the draft my junior year thinking that I could have a better year but no that didn't happen
@LSUShep10 But out of those 14 catches I still had 4 touchdowns you guys trying to talk down on me gives me more reason to leave.. I Can't believe this
Shepard, who missed two games due to suspension, mustered only 190 yards on the year, though that was good enough to rank third on the run-first team. Toliver, having just concluded his rookie year with the Detroit Lions, caught nary a pass in 2011. His senior year at LSU, Toliver tallied 579 yards.
At least Odell Beckham is still happy? Maybe? Somebody please check on Odell Beckham?
