    You can like Tolu or not. Maybe he underachieved. But I don’t like calling a guy that played for us, and seemed to stay out of trouble, a son of a bitch. That’s my opinion, and many on here won’t agree, which is fine. You can call him soft, because at times he was soft. You can call a player lazy, if at times they are in fact lazy. You can call a player an idiot if they act like an idiot. But I can’t think of a time that Tolu was, or acted like, a son of bitch.

    This......I hate seeing our "fans" trash our own players. Shows their ignorance.

    It’s fine to trash them when they deserve it. They are big boys. It’s okay to call a dumbass a dumbass. So I can live with Tolu being called soft. But when has he deserved to be called a son of a bitch.

    Agree. No place for that here. Our players lay it on the line for Maroon and White. Tolu did for sure.

    I agree on Tolu for sure.
    Near as I can tell he's a class act for the most part. Doesn't complain or cause trouble and plays team ball. I like the guy. Just wish he was more powerful down low and would play above the rim more than he does.

    My grad school son, my baseball/basketball/football season ticket holder friend and I met Tolu and his parents at "Applebee's" after a tough SEC game in January. Class acts all around. I think he has been hurt to some degree the last couple of weeks, JMO. His game is what it is and many coaches seem to have figured that out. Time to rebuild for 2025.
