No because it divides the sport into a bigger classism than it already is where the rich will get filthy rich. It ruins the sport completely. We don't watch NCAA for professional ball. It's actually worse than professional right now because they have no salary cap and no contracts. There's going to be less David vs. Goliath stories if they will ever even exist in NCAA in the future.
Louisiana has a ton working against it for NIL. LSU will do everything they can to compete they just can't. But define compete? If it's with the top 25 or the top 5 or even top 10? Because you're not getting anywhere to compete in the top 5-10 with money. Lord help us if the other money universities jump in that don't care about football and all of a sudden do. Bigger money schools are already deciding to get dirty like TAMU. It's why LSU continues to not lead for any of the top guys every week. Why the hell would they come here even if you're putting together a competitive package? There's more to your brand than just a money bag thrown on your lap. There's other opportunities. Imagine the NIL opportunities Los Angeles can put together for recruits. What are they going to do in Louisiana? Slap yo mama hot sauce in a state that's terrible economically in a small market?
