I personally don't want a team full of mercenaries because their hearts are not in it if they are just here for a check ATM is a prime example last year of what happens when a team full of mercenaries faces adversity they just check out why because they already got their $ I want guys who want to be here mostly with the 3 or 4 mercenaries to put you over the top

No thanks. If it takes any more of my money to make lsu good, then theyll just have to suffer. Not getting involved in this aspect of payment. Ticketsand merchandise is enough for me

There are many fans for whom there is no limit to the arms race. Whatever it takes. However much it takes.

Why in the hell would I ever give a nickel to pay someone else’s employees with no expectation of getting something in return? Will lsu discount my season tickets or give me a cut of their profits?

Believe it or not but the Alabama, OSU, Georgia, LSU's of the world are not paying top dollar for high school recruits.
It's the school's with little track record of developing high school kids in to men and NFL players that have to resort to trying to outbid everyone
Those schools I listed have more to offer than just NIL money.
That's not to say they're not paying, they absolutely are. There are more factors than just NIL.
Teams like Texas and A&M have no choice but to back up the Brinks truck because their track records leave much to be desired.
It also seems like Kelly tends to avoid the players who are only after the most money they can get up front. Hopefully it continues to work out for us.

Bro, the last two national championships at LSU and most of the football teams success last season can be attributed to the transfer portal and great coaching. I think the formula going forward will be a little different than what we have seen in the past.

If nothing is Done LSU cant keep up with the Texas Money. It used to be LSU could go into Texas and grab 2 or 3 top Texas players every year but with things the way they are now Texas & A&M will just throw boat loads more money at those kids to stay in state. Looks like it's already happening. Add the Fact now they just come into La. and start taking top La. talent as well. Something needs to get done to cap what schools can pay for NIL yearly.
