I’m not saying it’s all happened or none of it has happened. Niang, Uno, there will be a commitment on tuesday. Santos is probably the last international we take. They have set up 3 visits for next week.

As I said. You victory lapping way too soon. You said things have been agreed and boom and all. That has not happened. You literally had Tigerdroppings update their page on something that hasn’t happened just bc you want people to know you might be in the know or know someone who is.

Neither of which keeps you from getting a job, which is college athletics now.

Sign the man up!


International athletes have to jump through some hoops (no pun intended) under the 5 for 5 proposal. I don't see how they can apply it immediately for the coming year.
I got this from a prominent law firm specializing in all of these requirements and rules.

* Register with the NCAA Eligibility Center
* Submit academic transcripts and amateur status proof
* Obtain proper student visa (usually F-1)
* Understand NIL payment limitations for visa holders
* Maintain timely academic progress per NCAA rules

"The F-1 visa remains the most common for international athletes. This visa category allows full-time study but restricts off-campus work, which complicates income opportunities from Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals. Other visa types like J-1 or O-1 may apply to certain athletes but come with their own rules and restrictions.
How NIL Affects International Athletes
NIL rights introduced in recent years allow many US student athletes to monetize endorsements. However, immigration law limits many international students from monetizing without violating visa terms. Proper legal counsel can clarify who may participate and guide athletes to stay compliant."

Holy crap on a cracker.

The title of the thread says something happened but yet nothing has happened. Feels like another fake insider.

Love your info but I would be absolutely shocked if Niang and Santos are the only internationals we take.

We haven't signed a single basketball player yet. Anyone saying otherwise is making stuff up.

You’re not a real LSU basketball fan so why are you here?

You have never answered that very simple question
