LSU is just using the money towards recruiting. I think BK has the right idea you have to build through HS recruiting to win consistently. The portal will not get you NCs. It's to compliment what you have. It's short term at best and it doesn't fill gaps in depth either. You're always 1 injury away from disaster if you solely rely on portal.
You can make an argument nobody waits around anymore so HS isn't as relevant but I think that's a shortsighted way to look at it. You need a mix of both. There's a balance there. LSU was really good at it before this season. I think BK got gun shy after the awful portal showing from last year.
LSU has money but it's what BK wants. You nailed it right here. They don't want divas in the locker room with mediocre players coming in getting twice as much as stars like Perkins. Instant divide.
I will add just my personal opinion on this with nothing to base it on but speculation, but I don't think BK likes where NIL is going. I don't think he expected it to be this bad. With that in mind, he's probably not going to last as long as many think. I believe he'll hit retirement sooner than later. If he sniffs a NC here I don't think he's going to continue coaching beyond it.
