Y'all seen this? This is probably going to affect his draft position.

Probably some team that has a later pick trying to get him to drop.

He used to be an MSU beat guy a long time ago. He probably used those contacts to get this info just for a ?scoop.? Seems like an underhanded thing to report on imo.

Ian still has ties to MSU. He married a girl from Starkville.

The only thing this could possibly be since he was cleared to play is he has PVCs (heart flutters). If so, that's extremely lame to report that as news.

Lame to report if he worked out.

This was my first thought. If I were he, I would find an arbitrary Dr with 0.000 ties to any nfl team and get a 2nd opinion.

Bingo. Plus, it seems like most teams knew about it anyway. There are so many pre-draft games played by these teams, always assume someone is trying to push a story to help their positioning.

ESPN just said he has an irregular heartbeat.

Yeah PVCs are considered an irregular heartbeat. I've had them for a while. Stress and alcohol and trigger them. They feel like heart flutters. After 15 years of dealing with them I finally figured out the remedy to get them to stop.....sex. No kidding. Works every time.

Are you certain that being a MSU fan had nothing to do with the irregular heartbeat? I know I have heart pains more times than not watching ya play.

Not sure if theyre aware, but he's played football before. I think he'll be fine.

I mean, this is a different type of football, but the point stands:

Lots of heart attacks on that list.

I struggled with bouts of rapid heart rates for years. Almost to the point of fainting. Thank God it happened after a stress test one day and the doctor calmly said, ?I have a friend in Jackson that can fix that for you?. A couple visits later and a cardiac ablation...... GONE!!!! Wish I had known about it years ago. It?s something I fought starting in my teens and lasted into my fourties. Now it?s completely gone.
