Jon Gruden‘s loss could be Vince McMahon‘s gain … ’cause “Last Chance U” star Ronald Ollie is getting an invite to join the XFL.
Ollie became a fan favorite on the Netflix docuseries … which followed the East Mississippi Community College football team for the first 2 seasons.
The guy clearly has talent … he showed that on ‘LCU’ and went on to ball out at Nicholls State from 2016-2018, earning 13.5 tackles for loss, 5 sacks and 2 fumble recoveries.
Ollie earned a Southland All-Conference honorable mention in 2018 … which was enough to land him an invite to Oakland Raiders training camp earlier this season.
But the ‘Chance’ star is getting another chance if he wants it … ’cause XFL commissioner Oliver Luck has formally extended an invitation for Ollie to join the new league’s player draft pool.
BTW — Some notable ex-NFLers have already accepted their invite — from Ryan Mallett to Landry Jones.
The 23-year-old’s brief stint on the Raiders was documented on HBO’s “Hard Knocks” … which showed him skipping medical meetings and getting cut very quickly.
Maybe the XFL will be a better fit for Ollie???
