I think the first thing I ever saw him in was That Thing You Do, so I always associate him with that. Which is a great movie, by the way.
Episode 4 felt like mostly filler. They did move some of the relationships forward between characters, but that could have been accomplished in 5 minutes without feeling like a Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle series of unfortunate events to fill an episode. Hopefully the last 2 episodes finish strong.

So, generally a player loses college eligibility once they've declared for the NFL draft, but they did put a rule in place that allows players to declare in order to get feedback from NFL teams, then return if they withdraw before the deadline. But they cannot have an oral or written agreement with an agent or accepted benefits such as an invitation to the NFL scouting combine. They have 72 hours to talk to teams, then they must declare their intention to resume college football, otherwise they lose their remaining eligibility.
You can only do this once. If you declare for the draft the next year, there are no take-backsies.

Weren't they talking about a dude this year who was drafted and didn't want to play for the team and threatened to go back to college? If memory serves, it would require a legal challenge but the barstool lawyers felt it was a slam dunk case that the NCAA might not even bother to fight.
Apparently it's something they already allow in basketball and baseball.
I was wondering about that too until the latest episode where we found out he fucked the coaches wife and wife told everyone on camera that she had just fucked russ

I just know the rule...I don't know if it's legally enforceable. The argument used to be that you were no longer an amateur once you accepted money or hired an agent...now with all NIL deals, there's not really an argument for that now.
The daughter coach gives me Jennifer Aniston vibes. Curious to see how the season ends...guessing he reconciles with his dad, the gay kid gets an internship with the dad, and Russ ends up with the daughter coach and an NFL tryout. Kinda hoping I'm surprised and it's not all happy endings, though.

I thought it was going to go this way:
mom recognizes Chad as Russ. But can’t say anything or else dad know she’s cheated.
russ gets with Ricky.
neither Russ or mom ever say anything to Ricky or dad for fear of losing Ricky and fear of marriage crumbling.
mom actor is 43. She’d have to have Ricky at age 11. Technically possible but unlikely in this part of the world that it would happen and she would stay married with the father after being a child Bride

The agent and money aspects may technically still be in a rule but they really no longer exist anymore. High school kids are hiring agents now for negotiating their NIL. The 72 hour window to return to college post declaration still exists though the NCAA will likely roll over if somebody sues.
You dont have to declare to get feedback. Most draft eligible players receive feedback from the NFL. It is 3 grades: 1. 1st round pick, 2. 2nd round pick, and 3. Neither, stay in school.

I don't think that's Ricky's mom. They haven't explicitly said it, but she always mentions her by her name instead of "mom" whenever talking about her. She might still be annoyed he slept with her step-mom, but it's a bit different than sleeping with her actual mother.

I refer to my parents by their first name when talking about them. I say "Mom" to my mother, but when I refer to her to others, I use her first name. You're probably right.

It's kind of refreshing that the show jumps straight from plot point to plot point without slogging through the football season but there's a lot to tie up still. Georgia game, playoffs/heisman/football future, wife affair, Ricky, heart attack, roommate. It's almost too much that I suspect Russ will come clean and there won't be any resolution besides Russ becoming nicer and more like Chad. They haven't announced a second season but i suppose they could draw most out until later but that would be highly unsatisfying.
If this was paced like Lasso there would be episodes and development for the WR, QB coach, roommate, and others but they haven't shown any willingness to go there outside single lines of dialog hinting at character development.
