Donating to NIL gives you zero rights to know this kind of information. It’s weird to be so obsessive about it.

Its obsessive to want to know if our top rated recruit is practicing? Lmao y'all the ones actually trippin. Zero rights to know.... And if the media actually reported it would you consider that a violation? I'd consider it good reporting ...

You asked two questions:

1. Is he practicing? No. That has been answered definitively.
2. If the media reported it, would it be a violation? No it would not be, but what do you mean - Violation of what? Some code to privacy that doesn’t exist?

The media has not given the reason(s) why. Most assume because Mario and the rest haven’t told anyone or if they did, it was agreed to not say/print anything. The answer the media has given us is that it’s “personal.” Therefore, the media has reported to you the what - Dude missing practice, The Who - Hayden, and the why - it’s personal. You seem to be unsatisfied with that. That’s on you.

You ever knock up a chick and take her to the clinic? Helped a friend who did? Break up with a girl? Had your heart broken? Lost a loved one? Had a family member commit a heinous crime?

Would you like it if the media dug for all the details as to what happened because some internet person named OregonNative really, really, really wanted to know?? Even if they felt obligated and entitled to know because Oregon is a neighbor of Cali?

One more example. There’s a somewhat new thing now called rage baiting (pardon my Gen X *** for butchering some of these terms - laugh away) where a dude or two with cameras “exercise their 1st amendment rights” and film people reacting to asinine and insulting commentary, hoping to catch someone hitting them. Is it illegal to do this for likes and clicks? No. However, it comes with a high likelihood that eventually someone will punch you in the face. Or shoot you. Why? Because they’re acting like azzholes.

I’m not taking a position in this “right to know” vs “keep it private” argument, however,

As a friend of mine who used to be a judge loved to say from the bench, “counselor, let me change the facts a bit and tell me if this changes your argument”.

If Lowe was in the NFL, would you feel you have a ‘right to know’? The usual refrain to that question has been, well there is a difference between a pro and college athlete. But NIL has not just blurred that line but has obliterated that line. Many college players make more money than their pro counterparts.

I am at a point wherein my position on any such pro v college issue is that I have a right to know as much as I want for any paid athlete, whether pro, college, Olympic, etc…Once you are paid you are not an amateur and I won’t treat you like a “kid”. Now I really don’t care about Lowe’s personal life anymore than I care about pro athletes personal lives. So I don’t care to know what is happening as I choose to only care about those young men actually playing for UM. But the college v pro distinction is completely gone at least for me.

Yes and just to add to that, their actual personal life especially if nothing illegal, I am not saying is what matters. Their ON-FIELD impacts are the information I think should be shared. Its been incredibly vague. We literally have no idea if he is even practicing or not. Is he currently even with the team? Like all we know is he wasn't at the spring game I guess... Is he on campus? Was him not participating the teams/coaches decision or his? **** like that specifically regarding the team and his performance should absolutely be reported on. People saying that should be private imo are truly trippin. I haven't been saying I want to know the intimate details of what he actually did off the field (as long as legal) at is putting him in the doghouse. I think knowing what being in the doghouse entails or what his on field/performance did to put him in the doghouse IS relevant though.

Wasn't it well known that he attended practices but didn't participate?

.... No cause nothing is being reported other than "personal matter"....

I thought I remembered Dmoney and some other podcasters/posters saying he was out there and a part of the team, but just not participating. Maybe that was their way of avoiding the subject

I am basically telling you without getting his personal business posted. What I know is not an educated guess.
I'm not really sure why everyone feels the need to know something that Mario and everyone else has deemed personal issues. What are your personal issues that you would like to share with the class?
I'm not trying to be a jerk to you, it's just the same question over and over by so many here and on the YouTube show becomes exhausting to view. Just be patient and see if he works it out or otherwise don't count on him on the field if he doesn't. He is getting second chances right now because of how talented he is, otherwise they would move on from him at this point.

So what did he do?






Kidding

We can't know it's "against the law to divulge those specifics" without knowing the specifics.

Off the top of my head, things that would be illegal (or even actionable) to report on would be health/medical information protected by HIPPA, certain academic information protected by FERPA, if he was the victim of a sexual assault (rape shield laws), sexually explicit material, recordings make without his knowledge, private information that was stolen (think of a data breach / hacking situation), or certain (very limited) sensitive personal information (things like bank account numbers and phone numbers). Most other stuff is fair game, especially now that he's somewhere on the "public figure" spectrum via profiting off his name, image, and likeness (so he torts like invasion of privacy that may pass for common folks may not apply to him).

If he spent all of his money on blow and hookers, divulging that fact would not be against the law.
If he got into a car accident being a knucklehead, divulging that fact would not be against the law.
If he violated some team rule, divulging that fact would not be against the law.
If he's homesick and wants to go back home, divulging that fact would not be against the law.
If he missed practices and team meetings without prior approval, divulging that fact would not be against the law.

There's certainly reasons not to divulge some of that above. "The law" is not among them.

Yeah, I saw that post and thought immediately about HIPPA because that’s protected but like you said, a lot of other stuff isn’t so I think the point was a potential overreach though I get why the HC doesn’t want to put dirty laundry out in public but that’s a management decision not necessarily a legal one.

Ask Mario directly. I’m sure he won’t mind answering you:

MarioCristobalCamps@gmail.com
OR
L.MACIAS@MIAMI.EDU
OR
Athletics Office: 1-305-284-6324

Let us know what you find out.

Let me break this down for some of you dumbfuccs:

Hayden got a lot of money to come here and hasn’t been acting maturely. What specifically that means doesn’t really matter, nor is it any of your GODDAM business. When you have a halo over your head and wings coming out of your back, THEN ask (a million times) what this KID did. Until then, stfu.

You’re not entitled to have that personal information. Mario has established that he doesn’t share that stuff publicly. Quite honestly, I support him on that stance.

Lastly, for any drooling tards that haven’t yet figured it out, I’m not condoning these behaviors (whatever they may be) by Hayden, nor defending him for that. I am 100% defending his privacy. So again, for the full-bore retards out there, I’m defending his privacy, not his behavior. Stop acting like schitheads.

Thank you.

Yes. 1,000 times over, yes.

Not to mention the fact that some of these mistakes are made by 18 year olds. There is no need to publicize all the facts so that certain Miami fans can turn it into an ETERNAL (not) hilarious but repetitive joke.

Like the QB who banged the kicker's girlfriend.

Or the players who took some goofy photos.

Or the time that a coach considered using our punter as a depth WR during spring practice due to injuries to others.

"Kyle Wright to Miami".

"Can he play DT?"

We've got a group of dip****ty posters who have never seen a 10-year-old-joke that they can't ride into the ground for another 10 years, long past when it has ceased to be funny.

So maybe we can let Lowe get his **** together without demanding to know all the details of his personal life. ****, that approach works perfectly fine for the 10,000 UM undergrads who also make stupid mistakes in their late teens.

what? some of my dollars flowed into lowe's pocket, so he is accountable to me and others. plus i spend money to be a member of this site and i demand to know what he has done. otherwise, i am going to sue CIS for fraud in the inducement.

on another note, the contracts with these yutes, i suppose, must have provisions that allow for payments to be suspended in the event that rules are broken.

can someone confirm?

A lot of money is paid upfront. But, yes, there are clauses that allow money to be recouped (if the school makes the effort).

However, simply based on observation, this appears to happen only with "more serious" violations, like gambling, which impacts NCAA eligibliity, as opposed to "knucklehead" violations, like what Lowe did.

I'm definitely not trying to be an insider (I don't need the abuse from here LOL), but I do know some of the players on the team and a lot of different high school athletic personal and coaches around the state, so I hear a lot of stuff.
I think most of the website and YouTube insiders that are media credentialed either know what off limits is or have been informed not to speak about the details or maybe lose their access.
I think the staff are not trying to shame the kid publicly and run him off as he is uber talented, so that's mainly why there hasn't been much talked about.
I wish I could tell you he will or will not have a significant role this season as a lot of that will be on him. Others that have been in the "doghouse" and then given redemptive opportunities didn't always rise to the occasion last two seasons, and they slowly were phased out.
He is a nice kid and great athlete, so I hope he fights for his spot.
This is definitely not directed at you, but I just wish everyone would let it rest for a little while on social media and YouTube comment sections so Hayden can figure things out and not feel like everyone here is ready to freak out on him. The players do see and hear what everyone is saying/posting and that is impactful to this generation.

I gotcha. Appreciate the insightful response. Really hoping he takes the 2nd chance and runs w it. I was super excited about his potential role this season. Guess we'll have to wait and see how it shakes out
