LSU fans worried about ramifications of Kiffin’s decision to recruit, play former NFL players

The showdown between No. 11 LSU and Clemson was always going to be a showcase Week 1 game given Lane Kiffin's debut in the bayou. But few could have imagined the discussion surrounding the game would be anything like this. The heated on-field rivalry between two national powerhouses that share a stadium nickname (Death Valley) and mascot (Tigers) has been largely overshadowed by court cases involving NFL players returning to college football to use their final year of eligibility. Matt Moscona, a sports radio talk show host with 104.5 ESPN in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, said the issue has dominated the airwaves this week. He estimates that 10 of the 12 segments on his three-hour talk show on Thursday were devoted to the topic, while only one was about the actual game. He said LSU fans are genuinely worried. Not about Clemson, but about the long-term impact that Kiffin's desire to recruit and play former NFL players in defiance of SEC rules will have on the football program.
