Can anyone help us understand where LSU sits with developing NIL momentum?

Agreed! I think with the NIL issue LSU is trying to make up for their relative lack of resources by waiting and then dishing what they do have to kids towards NSD in effort to flip. Obviously we have to have a more concentrated radar for recruits, but again, I don’t know much and don’t hear a ton. Kids are committing which means we’ve got something going, but what is it and what is to come?

Also, LSU is very likely wanting to see what the portal has to offer. With these publicized NIL deals this portal is going to be ridiculously rich by the end of the year. BK already mentioned this not long ago on targeting the portal. This disaster syndrome on this board is overkill. Let some time pass. Nobody has signed yet.

They did exactly what you said with Perkins. LSU just came out of nowhere and outbid TAMU for him. Blue chip high end competitive players there's no reason to push hard for high end recruits right now. NIL bids are illegal to sign right now because that's being used as an instrument in recruiting. Nobody is signing anything. You can still make your bid. When you're on Ebay are you one of those guys who inflates the price 3 days before the auction is over or wait until the last 15 seconds to bid?

Take everything you hear at this point with a grain of salt

No one on here will know. But you can tell by the pattern of commitments and where they’re going to see who the players of the NIL world are

Notice there has been no insider activity on this board lol. The usual suspects are MIA

It sounds to me like someone floating the shite out there to get more money for the recruits. I just don't believe Miami is dumb enough to dump 5-10 million on a guy who's not even a generational talent and could be an instant bust.

Agree 100%.

There’s at least one collective for sure

No one here who says anything actually knows and anyone here who actually knows won't say anything.

So to answe your question, no.

All so many of you do is complain. BK and LSU are taking a measured approach. No, they don't plan to just throw out money and see how things shake out.

LSU is being methodical and doing their homework. If the staff doesn't feel a player is worth what they're demanding you have to pass. Can't set bad precedent

These players haven't played a down yet. What do you think Russell Shepard would've commanded and he didn't do anything notable in the Purple and Gold

We've closed on guys like Harold Perkins, Quency Wiggins, Sevyn Banks and Will Campbell. So this staff can close and compete with NIL, they just aren't taking the UT and A&M approach. Players only go there for $$$ for the most part, but LSU has legacy, tradition, recent success and draft capital to pull recruits.

I want the players that want LSU and not those looking for a payday because they'll be back in the portal for the next payday before you know it

Not complaining. Just wanted to get a little more information and hear some opinions. Thank you guys for the input Geaux Tigers!
