Maybe "the help he needs" is to be mocked and derided for doing stupid things, which is the case for pretty much all of us that weren't 5* athletes who were worshiped and given preferential treatment for our entire lives... We're helping. Yeah this is a pretty Nebraskan take. Mental health is a very serious thing doesn't excuse what he did but is understandable in context of what he was reportedly going through. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/100803-gilbert-arrested/page/9/#findComment-2586154

How have so many been able to diagnose a “mental health issue”? Every single issue seems to now go into the DSM. There is such a thing as just having poor behavior and or judgment. This is developed over time and is often the product of how someone was raised or the leadership in their life. Poor behavior doesn’t by default mean mental health issue. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/100803-gilbert-arrested/page/9/#findComment-2586176

The waiver request, they/he requested the waiver because of mental health issues. Unless you think he was lying, which I suppose he and the Husker staff and support team could be lying, but that is a rough place to start from, assuming that everyone is lying. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/100803-gilbert-arrested/page/9/#findComment-2586177

I think it is because we don't "get it" I know I don't understand so I treat it with kid gloves and would rather be over concerned about it. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/100803-gilbert-arrested/page/9/#findComment-2586183

I don't see anything official about him having a mental illness or the content of the waiver. I see message board postings. I will say some of them appear to be pretty detailed from LSU message board posters. However, I think your approach is probably that right one.

Collegiate athletics isn't supposed to be the same thing as club sport programs. What a silly take. Regular college students are allowed to do it. Why should the athletes be any different?

Not all credits transfer from school to school, and yes getting used to a college/city makes it progressively easier for a student to cope and adapt. Common sense, dude. 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/topic/100803-gilbert-arrested/page/9/#findComment-2586284

Poor behavior and judgment come from your brain, where your mental faculties are, and if they're 'poor' in quality, with synonyms such as deficient and defective, then... you see where this is going.
