they didn't mention with their reporting, but a good chunk better. But LSU did't go bananas like USC did with Tanook Hines. Crazy cash that ND couldn't come close too. Which is a choice by them that hurts them, but it makes sense, too. If you need to bid for a kid, then he probably wouldn't stick at ND anyway longterm, so they don't want to create a precedent.

The way they structure their NIL is probably the bigger thing. Instead of gaurateed money, kids need to do XYZ (usually a mix of grades, community service, etc etc) to get cash. plus ND help with sponsorships. So, the money isn't as big and comes with strings.

For Meadows tho, it has been about LSU's track record with WRs vs ND. His family is big SEC beleivers. the extra cash is a very nice plus for them, but not #1 thing.

The ND dorks are starting to get each other panicked. Different fanbase, same types of pre-melts. Glorious.

Would be a great win for the program over ND, especially considering how butthurt their fan base has been over BK leaving.

The insiders all around have been pretty cryptic with their messages today and they can’t handle it. The standard “omg he didn’t explicitly say he’s coming here 100%, so now I don’t know what to do or think”.

Yeah, that’s how read them. No one seems to know the way they were written in the article's today.

Back and forth we go again today.... less confidence on the ND page this morning. The see-sawing is pretty wild. Fun to sit back and watch it all unfold.

Huh? ND hasn't been the leader for Meadow in over a year. You seem to be projecting pretty bad here.

Fong says the delay helped ND the most. Biggest thing is if he chooses Bama then that wraps up Lockett to Texas.

WR recruiting is down this year. they'll hit the portal to help fill the misses. hopefully with denbrock things will change and the offense will be more WR focused and they'll start hitting on guys moving forward. the QB recruiting will help, but they got to show it on the field.

I agree on portal. I think they will add 2 more WRs to class. The WR position is always plentiful in portal and always a few good ones.

Also Coach Kelly said, "Quality over Quantity." no need to reach I think they push to flip Wright from Michigan though.

I’d love to hear where you’re getting your info.

I’m just reporting what the paid insiders are saying (not claiming I have sources), so don’t shoot the messenger b/c it doesn’t align with what you’d like to hear or think.

On3 shea is still thinking us.
ND mod:guy feeling less confident this morning too

On3 is worth every penny. There is so much info. Some true insiders besides shea and billy. You get to see a side of shea and Billy not just all work. They joke around-like to be just one of us

Agreed. On3 is far superior to 247 and Rivals.

ESPN might as not exist. Rivals Is long gone. 247 is holding on by a thread. On3 is way ahead of everyone

I could be wrong, but I think ZDUBS is a ND fan who doesn't think they are in a good position with Meadows.
