So when was he walking around in a boot? Share your knowledge.

My knowledge comes from people much closer to the program who know more that you.

Yes. Gerald was who I was referencing.

I guess Kyle knows more than Gerald.

If we want to continue recruiting and building NFL caliber players, we need to support them in their journey to the pros. Doesn’t matter if we like it or not. Sauce playing on Sundays is WAY more important, for a host of reasons, than him playing Saturday. Same for Max.

I’m disappointed, but totally understand and fully support TH in his quest to change his family forever.

This happens everywhere, it's common in FBS and should not be an issue. We will miss them in the Bowl but it's their decision and I don't see it as a negative towards the team or UL. It's great to have great players, IMO. I hope we have more in the near future.

Kyle it was reported on this site by one extremely reputable source and then it was followed up on an interview with Gerald Broussard earlier in the week, so quit trying to say things that you know nothing about.

This is the new reality. Lay it all on the line for a conference championship, anything after that, assuming it isn't a CFP game, is just extra.

There are many reasons why bowls have lost their appeal:

1. Way too many now, so doesn't feel as special.
2. Way too many now, so matchups are usually uninspiring.
3. CFP hasn't helped bowl process ... nor should it.
4. Way too many now, there is bowl playing at this moment on a Friday, when people are working, good luck with the TV ratings on that one.

I hadn't seen it mentioned prior, but Fanof71 says Gerald Broussard said as much on Footes show.

Gerald B mentioned on Footes show TH was in a walking boot much of the year...

A) I never read it anywhere on this site before you just brought it up.
B) I didn't hear an interview between Gerald & Kevin/.
C) I never heard Coach D. mention his name as being one of the guys who was opting out due to injury.
D) I am not hating on the guy so no one needs to get their panties knotted up saying I am. I'm a huge fan of the guy & wish him all the best at the next level. I'd enjoy seeing him in a Saints uniform if it works out that way. But I will repeat for anyone & to anyone who is a late round marginal player. If you know someone in this position who is sitting on the fence about playing in a game when they can. Then encourage them to do so. There are plenty of ass holes out there who THINK they understand the NFL, especially wanna be agents that don't know crap about the NFL who think it's always all about the money which it is. But when any NFL team is dealing with a marginal player, they're position is totally different than it is when they are dealing with a supposed stud. I didn't make the rules. I just know for an absolute fact they exist. And the world is littered with wanna be players who had enough talent to play, but did the slightest thing to irritate the wrong NFL general manager. And then they were done.
E) So IF the young man is really injured & can't make the bell, then I wish him as much blessings & good fortune as possible. If anyone at the next level perceives he ducked out against an all conference offensive lineman, that word will spread like wildfire & the results won't be good. Having said that, I am finished with this topic & won't comment on it again.

So you did not hear it so it didn't happen. The all knowing Kyle strikes again.
