NIL is ridiculous, but if big money guys that support these schools want to throw money at kids, that's on them. I absolutely believe that these endorsement deals will start including contracts with language protecting their investments.

That said, the free reign on transfers is a complete disaster.


Because LSU is losing the battle with other schools!

Here is the thing about NIL--the elite prospects who present themselves as professional & educated are raking in endorsements while those who elite but do not have the professional discipline aren't getting deals because they are considered too risky to the reputation of those companies willing to dole out cash.

Drew Timme, Chet Holmgren, Paolo Banchero are banking with NIL money. Some kid who can barely speak english and hangs out with the wrong crowd is getting scraps.
