Is that the day we colored the white house like a rainbow?

No clue. I picked a random day.

I had high hopes for Jordan Ross. Any 5 star edge rusher you get is supposed to be a big deal and he’s entering his 3rd year. However, LSU probably paid him a king’s ransom and he hadn’t shown the value yet.

We all had hopes he’d replace Pearce. He had the lowest pass rush percentage of the DEs last year & 1.5 sacks total playing far more here than Coleman did at Penn State

Kiffin pushed hard for Coleman.

My question is, if it’s not a medical situation, who knows, Im a little surprised at Knowles. Would have thought he would have known or developed an opinion of Chaz and his personality. Could he not have warned Heup about him? Unless the money has just overwhelmed the kid.

Money changes a lot of people.

Money changes a lot of people.

Also leads to bad decisions like not getting $2,950,000 of a 3M contract then getting a lot less at the next stop with no leverage and more caveats while also a deterrent to NFL GMs.
I’ve been supportive of Chaz and those struggling with mental health. If people had been to as many suicide funerals as I have the past 5-6 years they would understand, but those people weren’t posting pics of themselves with $1000s in cash like a wannabe rapper while not fulfilling their contract agreements, so he’s lost my support after those posts. He’s not all there though and needs help.

I wonder if he has a crazy momma like Boo...

I'm trying to still be supportive but the money show posts would make me unleash Rodney Garner on him for more than a church service and a full on "Come to Jesus" rant that would wilt the lettuce at the last supper.

He likely has some medical issues but acting the fool online isn't tolerable even for sick kids. No UT player should be fanning money online. Period. Set the young man straight about that, first. Unacceptable.

For me, and hopefully for the staff, the rope is really, really fraying for Coleman. Get help and get back to the team is always what I want for players with issues, but there's a point where we've done all we can do as a program for someone.

I'm souring on these 5* players. 50% don't pan out on the playing field. 25% end up leaving over money. I know that you need the talent on the field but, for the same money, go get 4 or 5 4* players that increase the proven performance across the entire field. It won Indiana the title.

Kid will blow that money and be broke in a few years
