The attempt to drag LSU through the mud is not going to end well for the Brooks family. They will gradually lose sympathy. They should tread carefully here.

These folks are ruining the goodwill they had with LSU and its fans.

TNTigerman•12 months

So what if Kelly hasn't contacted him. Is that a suable offense? Just lookin' for a payout.

Batiger53•12 months

So you can sue because you have not heard from your coach as much as you like?

This is what I’ve been thinking but haven’t said it. Even if it is true, ghosting someone is illegal. I bet LSU insurance and raised funds didn’t ghost him. They not complaining about that.

I'd also say that just because the suit wasn't filed in October 2023, it doesn't mean that the family didn't start threatening legal action or hire an attorney that was hanging around. If that's the case, LSU very well may have needed to stay away.

You can sue for anything you want to…doesn’t mean that you will prevail.

False headline. Definition of refute means to prove a statement wrong or false. This story publishes a claim by one side of the dispute. The story and headline should say that Kelly’s statement was denied or disputed. Not refuted.

Tangineck•12 months

Not sure why you're being downvoted, everything you said is correct. This is categorically not a refute.

Slumlord•12 months

It also means to deny or contradict an accusation. The headline is appropriate.

The word has more than one definition.

Attorneys are the scum of the earth and are the reason for everything that is fricked in this world. They’re nothing but parasites on otherwise productive people!

I’d like to know how much money was raised by the Greg Brooks Victory Fund that the athletic department put together. Money raised by the fans of the school they’re going after.

Spankum•12 months

I regret donating to that…never again.

It also seems that Brooks is aware that his NFL dream is done and he wants to make some $ this way because he wont be making it in the league.

I wish the best for Greg Jr. and I hope his recovery continues to progress to the point where he feels normal again, but I am done listening to his family and the attorney who are trying to pin some type of blame on someone who had no ability to change what happened.

Everyone will have their day in court and the evidence will come out. I'll tune back in then.

Huge money grab....Check back to when Brooks actually starting having medical issues...LSU did everything they could.

armytiger33•12 months

Not sure what BK is supposed to do? Spend all day and night there? Not deal with the rest of the team the last couple of years.

CDawson•12 months

Maybe not, but certainly he should give medical updates, like he’s walking, if he’s not or doesn’t have knowledge of his progress.

tiger109•12 months

This is some stupid arse shite. He had a scholarship,full ride. Coach is there to win games, not baby kids.

demtigers73•12 months

Oh Greg you are becoming a money grubbing loser real quick! Sorry what happened to you it was no one’s fault. shite happens!

Lowes knowsLSU•12 months

The kid is now mentally challenged and in a wheel chair. He wants his life back and he will never be the same again like he once was. To kellys defense he didnt really tell the coaches what was going on and he wanted to stay in. He keft having problems so they took him to our lady of lake hospital to firther evaluate him on an emrgency procedure after they were alerted. Not everyone can do a perfect surgery and he should have taken himself out of practices immediately and Brooks did not

Looks like someone is trying to get PAID!

Vernonbrew22•12 months

That is All this is about. Trying to sully
Someone’s reputation so a free check is cashed. Feel bad for the deck he was dealt but this is just a money grab

zippyputt•12 months

People, do a little research. The lawsuit is about the university not getting any medical check of him done after symptoms appeared, granted it was only 40 days apparently. Secondly it appears the lawsuit is essentially a medical malpractice claim against OLOL for an alleged botched brain tumor removal surgery. NOT about BK not calling the young man. Pray for him to heal.

Popstiger•12 months

I’m really sorry that it happened and granted I don’t know all the information involved but I don’t know any football trainer that would immediately think brain cancer when a player says he has a headache. Or even if he said it every day for a month.

Money grab. I stand with Coach Brian Kelly.
