I lost respect for him. He quit on his team.

Any NIL agreement that is not paid on a per game basis is nuts.

who the hell cares. He was awful when he was at LSU. All hat and no horse.

Of course it was started by a guy like him.

By LF’s logic, should be no more “sitting out” since NIL is a thing now.

Temu Derrick Henry

So he's a quitter then?

Luckily it didn’t matter in the end. Aranda’s defense completely shut down Lamar Jackson and didn’t allow a touchdown.

Who gives a shite?

I don’t like it, but it’s a smart business decision. All it takes is a twisted knee for a RB to lose millions. RB is an injury prone position

Reminds me of Jaylon Smith

I think I had better opt out of commenting on this one!

This isn’t the same LSU from the 60’s and 70’s, it’s been a business for 25/30 years now. I can’t imagine, Jones, Casanova, Capone, Estay or Kevin Faulk contemplating “opting out.” Would’ve never happened

“Opt out” is the woke name for quitting on your team.

Still a pussy cucked by Henry when it mattered most.

That makes no sense? Maybe if they were on the same team or if Henry kept trucking him if Leonard was a linebacker otherwise this is a shitpost
