Outside of Mark Ingram and Julio Jones, Damien Harris is arguably the biggest ambassador of the University of Alabama. Even while he’s in the National Football League, he consistently shows the utmost love for his Alma mater.
The former five-star at running back was on two College Football Playoff national title teams (2015, 2017) and three Southeastern Conference title squads (2015-16, 2018). So, when someone sent him an LSU shirt in the mail, all the Crimson Tide fans know how he would respond to it.
Harris dropped a tweet to social media after seeing the shirt.

Obviously, he was not feeling it.
LSU and its fans are still on a high from defeating Alabama this season for the first time in nine years.
On the heels of the win, the Tigers were able to capture its first SEC title since 2011 and appear in its first-ever CFP.
Joe Burrow pulled in a bunch of individual awards at quarterback – including the Heisman Memorial Trophy. Joe Brady, who served as passing game coordinator and wide receivers’ coach, earned the Broyles Award for the nation’s top assistant coach.

The Tide has quickly bounced back with signing an elite class for 2020 and the players are prepared to get Nick Saban and company back on top.
Harris, who finished his career eighth all-time in school history for rushing yards (3,070), is not one for the foolishness.
He did not like the shirt and he is waiting for Alabama to dominate the Tigers next year.
