For a Tulane Redshirt freshman. Duke fans are believing this morning that it was worth it. How many millions will we pay for our 2026 starter? LINK

And they're right. ACC champions and his PFF grade was 90.

It’s Duke and they just won a P4 conference. Pretty sure they’ll take the results this season gladly and run

Is it Mensah's fault they had the #107 defense in America

that is so much money for one player at middling program. I shudder to think what we're going to shell out to get us a starter in 2026

If he tries to poach Chambliss, OM will make him the highest paid QB in the short history of NIL. They are furious with us. I wouldn’t mind him flirting to see if OM breaks the bank for him, but I’d rather Lane try and find a hidden gem.

Perhaps Duke should have spent a little on defense.

According to ON3, Nuss was paid 4 million. I’ve heard he was paid 5.

The numbers I keep seeing, are that LSU spent about 5.5 million on the entire roster in 2024 and 18 million in 2025. That’s NIL + revenue sharing. Please correct if I’m wrong. And Brian Kelly absolutely had to go, but he donated several million of his own money to the collective becoming the highest paying donor as a coach in LSU history. Which is a little weird. A coach literally paying for his own players. Old soggy golf playing bastard. At least he did something right while he was here. Not the point. Just goes to show you how fast this landscape is changing. A single player who may never actually play a down gets by himself what we paid for the entire roster 2 years ago.

Would be nice of him to donate again next season.

If Underwood is getting 10 million+ then I can't even imagine what Leavitt will command in the portal.

Maybe it’s set up like a recurring subscription and he forgets to cancel

Wrong. He put in $1M of his own money to save his own stupid neck from getting shitcanned

I said millions. Absolutely correct. I didn’t say millions just this year. It was over his reign as coach. Yes, this year specifically was around a million. Do better

Yep, he definitely did it because he seat was warming up and he thought it would buy him some good will.

There is this magical thing called google. And ChatGPT. And then figuring out if the source that’s quoted is credible. More times than not. I’m just a fan. I’m not plugged into any special sauce. But I at least try to be as accurate as possible when I say my opinion on this thing we call the rant. But please, feel free to rant. That’s what it’s here for.
