Lane said at the press conference today that he was back, but still recovering. Recovering from what?

Probably a heart murmur from his 17th redbull for the day at 2:00pm

I think his son got married two weeks ago. He parties hard so just probably recovering, that’s all.

He had compression socks on the other day in the practice vids so that tells me his legs have been swelling.

One could guess but it would make most sense if that it's either diabetic or heart related.

Swelling in legs are a big red flag for potential major issues if not treated aggressively.

There were some health rumors, hopefully they are just rumors.

This is at the point of the question about Ed. Not much info other than he's back.

From the practice videos he was looking kind of feeble and a little slumped over. He definitely didn’t look too good. I hope he’s ok

He's aged substantially since 2019.

probably a blood flow issue. Needs to check that heart and make sure its flowing well.

That can affect feet and balance. Curious if he's type 2 diabetic. That can affect legs and feet well.

Red bulls are pure caffeine and poisonous if you have any heart issues. He may need to switch to decaf alternatives or face the consequences

He was photographed a few weeks ago and there were edemas. Thankfully LSU med staff likely sent him to a doc.

LSU should bring back coach kelly
Make him an analyst and work 24/7 in a small cubicle to earn that $ back
