I know what I would do. I am old school, taught by my Dad like I think many others here were also. You honor your commitments. If you will quit now you will quit later when things get rough and it becomes habit. I know this isn’t popular opinion these days. I know I know before anyone says it “get off my lawn”

I agree, and with NIL here it makes it look even worse to me, getting paid already, which is what everyone's been crying for, but if conditions aren't optimum here I'll just check out and wait for a better deal?

You don't know what you would do because you were never blessed with the ability for any of this to ever be a consideration.

Having an injury that prevents you from playing safely is not the same thing as quitting.

Dad didn’t have a contract worth millions on the line. He needs to do what’s best for him.

This is so dumb

Whatever your dad taught you is not in the same realm as to what Stingley is facing.

You honor your commitments.


He came here and was a significant piece of a national championship team. It's not like he's a Freshman

That's simplistic thinking.

His NFL future is and should be more important than LSU.

On the flip side, if he doesn't play again, he is quitting, and LSU is under no obligation to support him any longer.

The kid is hurt. He shouldn't play if he's hurt.

Again, He's hurt.

IF (and its a completely fabricated IF at this point) he decides to sit out the rest of the year even after he heals we can have conversations on guys quitting but as of now, Stingley is out because he's hurt not because he quit.

So if your wife was getting dicked down on the side by multiple men & you found out, would you still honor your commitment?

Lmao you absolutely wouldn't do this, but that's okay. If you had the chance to make millions of dollars for certain, and you had the ability to either (a) lock in those millions, or (b) risk losing a big chunk with no upside whatsoever, you would not choose choice (b). If you say that you would, you're either a moron or a liar.


This shite about being "old school" and "my daddy taught me!" is embarrassing lol. Your old school daddy was never an athlete with a body worth 8-9 figures of generational wealth.
