Clemson RB Etienne’s Mother Claims Threats from LSU Fans

The mother of former Jennings HS and current Clemson running back Travis Etienne claims her family has received threats from some LSU fans as the teams prepare for the College Football Playoff National Championship game on January 13.

Donnetta Etienne says she was told she had "24 hours to get out of Louisiana" by one fan.

LSU fans are kind of over-the-top. We have nothing against LSU; it’s not LSU, it’s LSU fans. They have a big desire for LSU to win the game. The only thing I didn’t like about it is it’s not Travis playing LSU, it’s Clemson playing LSU. But LSU fans started going crazy, and we haven’t even played the game yet.

She said she hasn't taken the threats seriously and has gotten off social media.

Etienne has rushed for 1,536 yards on 192 carries for Clemson this season
