When Derek Ponamsky was on Jordy Cullota's show recently, he mentioned how the game has changed in such a short time since he's been away from football. He specifically mentioned hearing how prospects are now asking schools for up to $20K just to visit, even for unofficial visits.

I'm not saying this has been the case here with Royal, but it has crossed my mind with all the official & unofficial visitors of elite prospects & commitments LSU has had on campus, some with multiple visits. Unofficial visits seemingly meant more bc the prospect must've really been interested in a school if they came on their own dime. Now, in the back of my mind, I wonder if any visit is anything more than than a free money grab/business deal.

We’ll build the wall and other schools will pay for it.

Dandy Don says visit is official. Is he right or wrong again?

"Pay for visit" has been going on well before the NIL era.

I dont think this is the case for Royal. He's right down the street. Its convenience for both sides.

Now that unexpected Kaden Henderson visit sounds like a money grab to me.
