We really don't have enough information to know where the problem lies, and to be fair there's plenty of blame to go around. Coaches, players and management have all participated in the mismanagement of some of the team's more serious injuries. From Gordon being rumored to have been half assing his rehab, to QPon actively avoiding doctors so he didn't get shut down and Demps saying "I fined him, what more can I do?", to Monty and Jrue ignoring medical advice on his rest/recovery/minutes restrictions.

My problem with it isn't that we have any evidence of Ochsner being bad, but there is disincentive to leave them if they are a problem. There's disincentive to even do an investigation to see if there's a problem.

Wait Oschner is already partnered with the team right? So their guys aren't the medical and training staff? Or they are?

Ochsner basically has so much money they are trying to buy up everything so you don't have a choice. They aren't elite at all. Once they don't have to compete they will get worse.

Maybe we are about to announce Dr James Andrews as a partner and part owner. That would be sweet

They have signed 8year deal with Oshner about naming rights to the practice facilities.
Wont be surprised if Oschner will have logo on Pels shirts.

So Conference is probably about Oshner as expected.

I would actually love for the patch to be something simple like this:

It'll say Ochsner buddy. Their logo isn't recognizeable enough to stand by its self. shite maybe Popeyes will be our jersey sponsor

Oschner is already partner right?


So maybe ownership transfer?

They bought naming rights to the practice facilities. That's what this is about.

Maybe Miles has been coaching him since no one will hire him to coach football.

Expanding with Ochsner is great news. Pelicans and Saints have been on the cutting edge of sports medicine and recovery.
