LSU Senior LT Joe Barksdale has been documenting his trip to Dallas and the entire experience of the Cotton Bowl from his perspective. Here is a video that he shot of the team flying 1st class to Dallas and ultimately visiting the new Cowboys Stadium that they'll be playing in for the Cotton Bowl on Friday night. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-TDcylfjLc&feature=player_profilepage]YouTube - Cotton Bowl Day 1 (1st Day Out)[/ame] It's not shown in the video, but among other things, the players received an iPad and Beats by Dre headphones in their Cotton Bowl "swag bags". This is Mr. Barksdale's last game as an LSU Tiger and it's something that he is not taking for granted. Joe Barksdale is a class act both on and off the field and I look forward to following his career at the next level. He'll be filming updates all week and I'll be sure to post them for y'all to see. Enjoy!
Can someone tell me how it's okay for these players to get "swag bags" but its not okay that they have a job.
