A frenzy of media coverage has surrounded Chavez for some time, as the recruiting world awaits her college choice.
At one point, LSU seemed to be a top contender with Texas, but according to a report by On3, LSU removed itself after Chavez's camp asked for $1 million in NIL money. Sonny denies that, stating that LSU may have assumed they would ask for that sum because Texas Tech softball player NiJaree Canady received a one-year deal with more than $1 million. He insists all NIL discussions about Aaliyah have been started by the interested programs, not by him. An LSU media representative said the university was unable to comment on the status of an unsigned prospective student-athlete.
While Chavez is used to the attention, it provides fodder for opposing fans.

So apparently tomorrow everyone finds out where she is going.

I remember when buying a football player a meal at Burger King would land you on probation. Now we’re giving a million dollars to women’s basketball recruits.
Wild times.

Three of LSU recruits for the incoming class wanted to play together but made it known they didn’t want to play with Chavez.

I'll take the #1 recruiting class in the country (four 5 star recruits) over landing her

Same here! I don't care HOW good she is. I'll take what we have coming in, over landing her. And, this was reported at least four months ago, by the way.................
Chavez Wants a Million Dollar NIL Deal!

That's correct. She is an American. Why comment on players' nationalities even when you don't really know what her nationality is.

She will tell you she is a proud Mexican-American. Go look at the Tejas fan base. I guarantee you it is by far more Hispanic fans than any other in this state. Secondly, my daughter in law and 2 of my grandkids are Mexican - American so it doesn’t make a shite bit of difference to me. The point was the loyalty of that culture to UT is undeniable. Throwing money in tips the scale every single time.
As far as the PG position, Richard is going to explode next season. This has been a prelude.

So your grandkids were born in Mexico or USA? Pick a side and stop with this hyphenated double speak.

What's wild is a HS player coming in and demanding it. We've had female athletes at LSU earn huge NIL deals...after they've competed and made a name for themselves.

Have you ever lived in a place outside of the swamp?
This is how a lot of Mexican-Americans differentiate themselves from others Hispanics. Let’s lump all white people into one category. Italian-Americans will fly out tell you to go screw yourself.

ONE NATION and no..I like living in my American swamp just fine.

She's about to announce live on ESPN
