Do you think there’s a return on investment for spending a $1 million this year on football ? What is it?

Good will for contributing to the highest insurance rates in the country. Probably some tax deductions for advertising/business expenses

For his business? Probably not. For his personal happiness? Probably a pretty good amount.

But hey, I’m not complaining… he seems to be the only one to step up in a big way with NIL…. Where are the MMR, Turner, Performance, Cajun industries, ISC, Bernhard Capital/ Epic, H&E, Scottie Moran, Lipsey, Valluzo…. Etc.
We need all these guys working in conjunction

That’s why it’s a tough one for me. Engineers solve problems. Lawyers create problems.

Yet he’s the only one Man’ing up at the moment so I have to be team Gordon.

What's the average settlement for a vehicle accident in Louisiana? $20K? (I really have no idea). If he's able to pick up another 50 cases per year from advertisements, word of mouth from LSU players and their family then maybe he breaks even. But the ancillary benefits from an ego perspective can't be understated. I doubt there's a postive ROI but being seen as the go to guy to get shite done for LSU would be pretty cool.

He is a Louisiana lawyer that spends A LOT of money on billboards for name recognition. I have no idea what the return on investment is but he is getting a lot of positive recognition for his open LSU support. We just need to figure out how to get him and Morris Bart competing here like they do on billboards.

It’s funny how Dudly Debosier is the official injury lawyer of LSU athletics when Gordon has received 1000x more publicity when it comes to LSU sports.

Hell, if I won the megamillions would I shuck out $1M a year to LSU to get unparalleled access, benefits, recognition etc? Probably

Hard working Louisiana citizens (who actually have insurance) pay extremely high car insurance notes monthly

Car insurance companies pays high settlements to Gordon and team to settle “my neck hurts” lawsuits

Gordon gives settlement profits to LSU football players

…car insurance is just an LSU football tax on our great state

He was going to spend that $1 million on advertising anyway. Plus the popular theory is that it's not his money, he's just the face/middle man.

No one is hating on him.

It was a simple question about whether he gets a return or not.

He’s free to do with his money as he chooses.

I think what he is doing is noble
This was not a hate post, but simply wondering does he get anything? Other than the emotional side which is great.

I love how insurance companies have brainwashed the general public into believing it’s the lawyers and people making insurance claims that are the reason for high insurance prices
