Ole Miss filed another appeal yesterday and hired some big shot lawyer. They are pretty confident he will get another year. frick it. I hope he does get it and we go to their house next year and smoke em in front of all their fans.

The amount of money this sport makes in a year is in the billions. Less than 2% of these student athletes actually make it to the NFL. I agree major regulatory change needs to happen, but let these kids get some of that money. They are the ones experiencing controlled car crashes every week for our entertainment. Why shouldn’t they get paid for it? Where do you think all the money should go to? I do agree this Wild West crap where the players have too much power and no real responsibility to a school needs to change. But I agree they should be compensated.

I know he has options and will get his bag no matter what, but do we get to have our doctors assess him before we drop that kind of money? Or is it we trust what his doctors say about prognosis?

Ole Miss put in another waiver for him yesterday. More detailed. He's staying at ole miss if granted.

Even if somehow he gets it, it seems like he may have committed to Ole Miss for the final year. Why would they go through the trouble of filing yet another waiver on his behalf with loads of new supporting evidence unless he gave them a verbal. If they thought he would follow Lane they wouldn't do that. Unless they are just that desperate And hopeful.

Lane Kiffin was already an elite offensive coach at USC and helped shape Alabama’s offense years before Charlie Weis Jr. showed up FAU. This is sourced from a college coordinator apparently. So for now take it with a grain of salt.

Weis Jr. deserves credit as a great play-caller and optimizer, but the system, philosophy, and track record belong to Kiffin.

Calling it “Charlie Weis Jr.’s offense” ignores a decade of elite production Kiffin had without him. He didn't take over play calling till Ole Miss. He joined Kiffin at FAU

If he gets an NFL job, good for him. I hope he stays for at least one year though.

There’s no way we pay him in the off season with the blood clot issue unless he agrees to a super team friendly deal. It’s just too risky.

I agree to have caution. But this ain't Chris Bosh. It's his first ever clot and they caught it early. But yea, let's move on from him.

Current Status: Olave has been discharged from the hospital and is doing well, but will miss the New Orleans Saints' final game of the season against the Falcons.

Recovery Timeline: He is expected to be sidelined for about a month before being ready for the offseason program, which typically begins in April.

Long-Term Outlook: The issue was detected early, and all indications are that the long-term outlook is positive with no prior history of blood clots.

Season Summary: Olave finished his 2025 season with career highs in receptions (100), receiving yards (1,163), and touchdowns (nine) across 16 games played.

Sure get rid of the guy that clearly has chemistry with shough, actually wants to be here(not just about the money) showed to be a great teammate (he was gonna play hurt just to help shough with Roy) and will prob not get a top contract that resets the market. We can and should. And we will sign him up long term. Idiot. Who would you want instead?

Where does this put us in draft order? Which games to watch after this one?

Nevermind. Already a thread about it
