Not having a top QB seriously interested is troubling. We’re running out of options…fast. The top QB recruits jump really early these days. We’ve had several come to campus and none stuck.
the #5 overall player in the country and top 3 QB Dante Moore has LSU in his top group.

There’s a reason for that. It’s called WALKER HOWARD. The top QB recruits don’t want to play behind him. It’s that simple.

You think these people know about that? You’re giving them wayy too much credit.

OP, would you rather “NFLSU”? When kids leave even as 4/5th round picks?
Point is that change had to happen. If you can come up with a better slogan, do it.

"$raduate $hampions" is what it is about nowadays.

Staffs not “staff’s” speaking of education…
Most of these kids do not care about an education so “Graduate Champions” is a silly strategy in my humble opinion.

Assuming most of these kids do not care about a diploma

They know they won't all get drafted, but it's like they also don't see how a LSU degree with football on your resume can get you almost any job you'd like in LA.
Unfortunately, most of these kids only see fast money and it's saddening they can't just see 5 years ahead. Many of them really think they're good enough to play in the league and have an entire family riding their coattails and leaching off of them.

NIL changed recruiting, get used to it. Stop panicking, kids will commit later

Don’t have to imagine… I’m reading their posts right now.

Elite athletes don't come to LSU to play school.

HOWEVER, I wonder how well kids now respond to this idea. Recruiting has now minimized to a basic pay to play (with NIL), and the focus is the fastest trajectory to the NFL.
You just answered your own question. This isn't about a free education anymore it's all about making money on your likeness.

Money on your likeness is the same as Lobbying is a bribe

You are very naive if you think that’s the only thing they are pitching and is their only strategy. You need to know the difference between public/coach/media speak and what’s being said to the recruits. Hint. It’s different with every single player.
