Did he say he was offered that by LSU or an LSU booster?

Or was he offered that while he was enrolled at LSU by agents or people looking for a piece of future earnings?

There is a pretty big difference on who made the offer.

agents offered since he was going to be #1 pick

I doubt he was offered Rolls Royce's and cars like that by any agents.

LSU is so down at this point in time, that anything the NCAA does to LSU will actually be an improvement to the situation. LSU can only go up from here.

I think it pretty obvious it was by agents and not LSU or boosters.

This program is in better shape than when Jones took over. He's not the answer, and he should have been let go.

Still, that comment is silly.

Also:

His mother, Julie Simmons, claims she feared the NCAA would eventually "unravel" her son's stint at LSU. But his sister, Emily Bush, says she has receipts for every item Simmons purchased while he attended the school. But that doesn't mean the family approves of the regulations.

That piece of shite mother fricker Him and Lester Earl can go eat shite together. I know I'm probably alone in this, but it pisses me off that Earl's son plays for LSU. If it were up to me, he wouldn't be on the team. frick 'em both.

Yeah, it's easy to be nonchalant and say "screw the basketball team". No big deal, right? Wrong. The problem is when the NCAA starts investigating, it's looking everywhere, not just basketball. You feel confident our football program is squeaky clean?

I'd be very surprised if there are 5 combined basketball boosters outside former players that would ever put up Bentley money with Johnny Jones as coach.

I am not sure why everyone is jumping on Simmons. I would be willing to bet all these people offering him things were agents or people trying to get their foot in the door to get paid later.

He never said someone from LSU or associated with LSU did it.
