But idiot fans want to take the side of spoiled athletes getting $200,000+ scholarships while other kids are having to go into major debt to get an education. Cry me a river.
This dumbass shite is why we are in this mess Yall love capitalism until it works against you. You got all these schools trying their damndest to switch conferences destroying decades long rivalries, for millions. You got tv deals in the billions. You got all this insane money circulating through coaches hands (a 100 freaking million dollars), yet you're mad at kids who are actually putting their bodies out their for what amounts to a couple 6 figure years at a sorta high paying job? Get the frick right out of here.

A lot of those other kids you speak of have parents who are paying to send their kids there. Those kids aren't paying their way. And sure, you have a lot of kids on student loans, but are they providing millions a year in payouts to their university? Hell to the frick no! I can assure you there are not 20 kids on any roster making an excess of 6 figures, and if they are, that deal is not a one year deal.

I don't think average kids should get 7 figure NIL deals, but if you're elite, then hell yes. If the top best DT in the country wanted to go to LSU, you pay the 1.2 mill. These average kids aren't worth it though.

He literally got Travis Hunter to sign out of HS for a “7 figure” deal.

ETA: CU has the #7 ranked transfer portal class. He’s signed 39 players
He's not paying the money you think he's paying these kids. Look who is coming to Colorado. Are you stupid? Colorado doesn't have that type of money either.

What the hell does Travis Hunter 3 years ago have to do with now? Also, Hunter isn't a transfer portal kid.

You missed so many times here.

Boosie clearly doesn’t understand any of this so it’s a good thing he’s not the coach or LSU would’ve just forked over millions of dollars to average dlinemen and would be willing to risk our other star athletes/recruits leaving because of it.

That statement is going to end up getting spread to recruits everywhere that LSU is "cheap"
You dumb bitch, I’m sure that’ll mean more to a player than actual conversations with LSU NIL people about it.

Screw everyone but LSU fans, players, coaches, etc. We are Louisianians and we don't need to have Yahoo or anyone else tending to our business.
