Dumb. Every school in the country wants Harlem Berry yet he’s coming to LSU.

Currently the top NIL Running Back (BS Ashton Jeanty) brings in $1.4M, right behind the Nuss bus at $1.3.

Somebody would've paid multi millions for him. He was huge coming out of HS.

That's not really a valid comparison. If Jeanty was having this season and was forced to come back to college he would demand a TON of money.

Back then backs were a premium…not so much anymore with spread offenses

RBs in college, like in the NFL, have gone down in value. They RB position is simply are not as important as the QB position.

Review recent drafts an examine where RBs get drafted. They are not prioritized or valued like they used to be.

Curious how much more LSU will have to pay to keep him around.

That’s what we all say…until your team doesn’t have a running game.
