But I suspect they recognize that every school will have outlier comments that are negative.
If what was said on a message board bothered them, then they wouldn't let their son go to ole miss. I've read a lot of posters on rebel boards for months poor mouth Rawlings and say he sucks and didn't want him. He was a leftover. People can spin things how they want. We aren't going to lose this kid bc me or you or any other state fan said something bad about the situation. Now matter how it's spun. That's a fact.
