Without NIL, assuming transfers were allowed:

Less talented
Just as talented
More talented

I can’t help but think kids like J Stewart, BU, D Moore would all be Tigers

The future is in front of you, man.

Look forward. Not behind.

You think the national letter of intent drove those players elsewhere?

More talented and that's not taking a shot at what we have because this class is great but you could argue we wouldve landed the best class in LSU history without NIL. Now with that being said, that's a projection. We could suck and all the guys we wished we landed could really suck. College football really is a 1 year at a time thing now because you could field an entirely different team with all new guys each and every year. I donated another $20 last night to the Kelly match fund. Gotta pay to compete.

Underwood, though talented, will not have the career most expect him to have at Michigan. They do not have the talent or system in place for him to develop and be overly successful.

its CRAZY that someone thinks NIL is the reason we dont have these players. Its the current "reason" why we didn't get them.

Dylan Moses went to Bama back then just as he would have now. Its all relevant. Money above the table or below the table doesnt matter.

We would be in the same spot plus or minus players.

About the same. NIL isn’t the problem it’s the transfer portal that’s the real problem. Money has always been thrown around to players for years it’s just public now. It’s impossible for teams to have depth now because of the portal.

This is two fold. On one hand we have been killing it with transfers using NIL. It has also helped with Highschool recruiting. Without NIL I would think we would still be in the top 5 like we were consistently before NIL was ever an option.
