Lane Kiffin’s decision, Odell Beckham Jr.’s financial advice and the Vikings’ struggles: H&H Podcast
In the latest episode of the H&H Podcast, Ahmad Hicks and Henry Lake dive into one of the biggest stories in the sports world: Lane Kiffin’s stunning decision to leave Ole Miss for LSU — all while the Rebels are chasing the program’s first National Championship in the College Football Playoff era. The move sparked national debate, with some calling it selfish and others applauding Kiffin for doing what’s best for himself in the ever-shifting landscape of NIL-driven college football. Sticking with LSU, the guys also discuss former Tiger Odell Beckham Jr., who went viral after revealing how he mishandled — and was unprepared for — a $100 million NFL contract. He cited a difficult upbringing and lack of financial education, but Hicks and Lake pushed back on his claim that “$100 million can’t last a lifetime.” They argue it’s an insult to everyday people who survive on far less and that, with proper guidance, life-changing money can absolutely last generations. Meanwhile, the Vikings’ struggles continue. This time, rookie Max Brosmer got the start and underdelivered, leading Lake and Hicks to call out Gopher fans who hyped Brosmer as the answer, while dismissing QB J.J. McCarthy. The hosts remind listeners that Brosmer is just as young and inexperienced, if not more so, making the rush to crown him premature and the rush to bury McCarthy even more misguided.
