Lebron James is a polarizing figure in sports — it seems like you either love him or hate him — but after Saturday night, Tennessee Vols fans are likely united in their disapproval of the future Hall of Famer.

James, an Ohio native and supporter of Ohio State, spent Saturday evening tweeting about the Ohio State/Georgia College Football Playoff semifinal game.

At one point, James seemingly took a shot at Vols wide reliever Jalin Hyatt without actually using Hyatt's name.

James tweeted that he thought Ohio State's Marvin Harrison Jr is the best wide receiver in the country and added "who cares about your votes". That's obviously a reference to Hyatt winning the Biletnikoff Award over Harrison.

There's no doubt that Harrison is a great wide receiver. And he's going to have a fantastic NFL career. But Hyatt had the better season and he deserved the award. Numbers don't lie and Hyatt had the better numbers.

Sorry, Lebron. Those are just the facts.
