LOOK: Auburn, Arkansas fans blast Kelly Bryant for choosing Mizzou
Former Clemson QB Kelly Bryant narrowed his list of potential transfer destinations to five schools — Missouri, Auburn, Mississippi State, Arkansas and North Carolina.
On Tuesday, he officially decided that he’d be attending Mizzou in 2019, taking over for the outgoing Drew Lock.
That decision naturally upset the other four fanbases, particularly Auburn and Arkansas, both of whom thought they had a good chance to land the dual-threat quarterback.
Some of the reactions on Twitter were too vulgar to publish, but here’s a look at some of the negativity coming out of Arkansas and Auburn supporters:

The iron bowl would’ve been one of the biggest games next year Tua vs Kelly Bryant he messed a big opportunity, instead he wants to play UGA, FL, Tenn and Kentucky ??♂️

I always thought the Battleline "rivalry" between Arkansas and Mizzou was forced and dumb. But now that they got Kelly Bryant, I've never wanted to beat a team more

Kelly Bryant is a fool if he thinks he can actually accomplish anything more than a 6 win season at Mizzou

We’ll see where those two schools turn for quarterbacks next season, but Bryant is officially a Missouri Tiger.
