but I wouldn’t be surprised if we never land a #1 recruit at this point unless the rules of the game change.


We just landed the #1 RB and #1 CB in the nation. What does this statement even mean?

Why should the fans have to pay for a kid who doesn’t give a shite about education just how much they can put in there pocket. We have to pay for them to live there dream. Theres no loyalty why should we care screw them

What other collectives do is offer incentives:
- autographed items from players in the collective
- monthly cocktail events where you can mingle with the players
- recorded videos from the players in the collective
etc.

Bayou Traditions just needs to sweeten the pot a little and more people will donate. Florida, Auburn & Ole Miss having great success with it.

I would definitely donate if I knew it was 100% going to the players and not “administrative fees, salaries, health insurance, etc”. Kind of like the Salvation Army using the majority of your donation for the CEO’s salary

Just checked Auburn's On To Victory Collective. For just $17/month you get:
- 100 Entries to a monthly giveaway
- Invitation to attend 1 player meet & greet event (2 tickets for 1 event)
- Ability to attend monthly virtual meetings with student- athletes

Why doesn't LSU have something like this set up?

I would walk away totally from college football and watching LSU football before I pay for these entitled kids to play a game

This fanbase would rather bitch and complain about losing 5 stars cuz "they" won't put up more money. Just so long as we win the jello shot challenge it's all good.

So it’s on the fans to donate to the school, pay the lion’s share of coaching salaries and facilities via TAF,buy season tickets and NOW pay for the players ? LSU going to start paying dividends from that TV money ?
