There are a few reasons. But first, I’ll say that I am ALL in favor of players getting paid. And I am sure they have been getting paid for a really long time.

But, the way this is set up, every team is essentially made up of free agents. That can and are leaving after one year at a school. How are coaches supposed to manage their rosters?

So at the end of the day, the programs with the most egotistical boosters that will give a group of kids the most money & the nicest cars will be the programs that have all of the top tier talent. This means that there will only be a small handful of programs that will compete for championships. It’s not about X’s & O’s, but Jimmys & Joes. And LSU ain’t in that group.

Players have always got paid, but nowhere to this scale.

Oh, bullshite. LSU will find guys to pony up the cash.

Look for a lot of "construction and renovation" contracts to come from LSU, which will filter the TV money out to various groups, who will then buy rosters. You know it's going to happen.

in summary there is no reason the players shouldn’t have this right ,the reality is that it’s only about the possibility that this change could have a negative effect on the success of LSUs football program compared to rival programs.

If next year lsu gets all the top players and then wins another natty people won’t give a frick about NIL or the transfer portal, it’s all whiny bull shite.
