I’ve been looking around twitter, just look at AYS Sports they are retweeting every person that’s donating to the NIL, this is exactly what we needed fellas

Lsu should talk a high level booster into doing a donation day where they pledge to match all donations in a 24 hour span. Would probably make for great publicity to the fund

So,

Right away, LSU’s most prominent figures need to create a commercial about this week…..if this is a record setting week or close to it.

Whoever (shaq, Joe, Jaden, Livy) needs to say that last week’s events prompted Tiger fans from all over to donate.

It was a spike in donations because tigers all over want to see us compete.

They need to tell the others that Haven’t, to consider joining the monthly donation campaigns and get something going.

Just donated. Kelly and this signing class has inspired.

Not go to the Portal and bring home some talent!

It’s wild that LSU media is just now realizing that it might be a good idea to promote the collective

They’d be better served creating some kind of subscription for a steady amount per month, offer different tiers.


The NIL game is a marathon not a sprint.

ETA: i’ll give em that one for free, i have consultation pricing available.

My #1 goal with my cleats is to bring more businesses into the fold with NIL

Together, we can Make LSU Great Again

Do we get a say in how our money is being used?

No offense but I'm not donating a bunch of money for Denver Harris, JK Johnson, Jyaire Brown, Omar Speights, Duce Chestnut, Mason Lunsford, Jalen Lee type of players. Not that they're bad kids or even players, but there has to be some return for the money.

I have a problem handing over cash to pay players that haven't been properly scouted and vetted that they'll actually be able to compete in the SEC. Thats where they're going to lose a lot of people.

The disconnect between what a coaching staff can actually do and what this fanbase wants is so far that it's actually laughable.

Bro if you're asking people to invest in your product you better damn well be elite at choosing which players to invest in. That's my issue, BK and staff haven't. If we had a younger engaged coach that could evaluate well, the collective would be booming.

They should put QR codes all over every athletic facility on campus where fans can scan and donate. That’s my two cents.

If you talked to coaches, you'd find out that one of their major complaints about the portal is just how much of a crapshoot it is.

It's easy to sit on your couch say muh scout better and get SEC level players but what you are asking for is quite literally, impossible.

The problem is expecting people to invest in a majority of kids who good give two shits about them, when they would be better off investing in their own kids future/college. It would be better if people could donate to specific kids that actually want to play for LSU and rep the LSU brand, those who bleed purple and gold (Jontre Kirkland types) instead of those chasing a payday (Bryce Underwood).

But I will do my part and contribute in the hopes those in charge and smart enough will use the money wisely. That being said I like the fact that Kelly says he won’t buy players, but instead pay the players willing to bleed purple and gold.

LSU just needs to hop on helping the collective grow. There are all types of things they can do.

Raffle off seats in a box at Alex Box for regionals...how much do you think they could pull in for a chance to win 2 seats in the suites for that if they did $10 per raffle ticket?

I'd probably buy at least 5, and LSU really doesn't have to come out of pocket for anything.
