This wasn’t covered on the premium pay wall board? Shocker. My sources were ecstatic about this.

Well, this is a surprise

As far as I’m concerned he can play as long as he likes

Wouldn't he need a 3rd redshirt season to be able to play his 7th year in 2025?

2019- burned a year
2020- burned a year
2021- burned a year
2022- redshirt
2023- redshirt
2024- burned a year
2025- returning to play

Maybe he did regular redshirt, medical redshirt and a covid year redshirt? Can't wait to hear how we swung this one.
Great to have a leader in the building with a new coach and a lot of new faces. BH8 and Dj Smith should do well together leading the defense.

2020 could be the Covid year?

I don’t think that there is a concrete path to getting a medical waiver but he lost two full years to injury. You can’t technically apply for a medical RS until you have run out of actual eligibility so they must have applied for it after the season.

He stayed when 90% of the team left and went to South Carolina with Sparky.

I guess you will never know since you were banned. But I don’t post anything here that I learn on the Premium board until it’s made public. Stay salty my man.

He is getting a sweet NIL deal to come back. AARP has really stepped up with this one.

I normally am ready for players to move on just to see the next guys but I agree. He certainly bleeds black and gold. When you consider his medical redshirts and COVID the 2025 season is his last unless the rest of players get a 5th year or he gets hurt again and has to use another medical redshirt.

A lot of people expected him to be limited in 2024 due to injuries but he led the team in tackles and played well enough to be named honorable mention All-SBC. If he is 100% and does not have another injury then it would not shock me if he has a 1st or 2nd team All-SBC type season. Brendan is very smart and loves football. He will play hard. I am guessing he is going to coach when done playing and I can't wait to see because I expect him to be a great coach.

I would take 8 on my team 8 days a week and twice on Sunday whether 100% or not. His intangibles are a difference maker.

I would normally like to just move on if they have a degree but we need bodies. I am hoping that Loggains signs a few HS players next month and we should be able to sign 20-25 HS players and still bring in 10 or so in portal after the season.

AGREE and he is 100% a true leader on the team!!! This is one football player that has his team and school in his heart. 99% of players with his injuries would have been done with football.

Hoping it's one or two on the DL. And maybe one at TE.
And wouldn't mind our punter to return.
