When Tyrann Mathieu checked into rehab last month we speculated that he'd be back in a Tigers uniform before everything was said and done. The Honey Badger certainly has a long way to go before donning purple and gold again, but he took a huge step this week, enrolling in classes for the fall semester. Mathieu completed the "treatment phase" at the Right Step rehab center in Houston, and was back on campus in Baton Rouge a day before the deadline to register for fall classes. "(Rehab) went well.

Les Miles, better known as the Mad Hatter, is up to his usual stuff again. His trademark is eating grass, but now he’s quoting Will Ferrell movies.
