The tradition, consistent CWS appearances and history of winning makes WF an easy pic at #1, right?

Lack of respect shown. You're the National Champions, who eliminated everyone in their path, so you're #1 until you're knocked off

LSU football with the #3 ranked recruiting class according to on3 while using half the NIL money that all the other programs are using. Just imagine if we actually used NIL money on football instead of investing so much into fricking gymnastics and women's basketball

The NIL $$$ that our gymnasts get and our WBB players get is coming at the expense of NIL for fball. It is actual ad $$$ to multitalented athletes that comes NOT from an LSU NIL collective nor from LSUAD revenue.

I'm not sure LSU is capitalizing on its full NIL opportunities. They are leaving alot on the table with some decisions.
