Interesting you say this because he and Keylan Moses are best friends.

Hayes Fawcett put out two commits for Aggies on Twitter this week. Brown has to be one of them.

One is a safety from South Carolina. Guessing on the second right now.

Nice, why don’t think we’ve been slow compared to other schools with the number of recruits we have and do you think we’re getting outbid? Thought we had that under control.

Definitely not the vibe i get from his interviews plus with the U High history.

He has posted pictures of himself July 2nd in TAMU gear, then July 3rd in Texas gear, but posted no LSU pic. I don't think this guy is one of those douches who leads everyone to believe he's going between 2 schools, then puts on the 3rd schools hat on signing day. I'd be surprised if we get him.

Texas and TAMU just have too much alumni money. The only saving grace is that next season or next, teams are capped at $20.5 mil. LSU can meet that I think which will put us at as much money as the TAMU and Texas if everyone is capped at $20.5 mil. Just this year and next, we'll have less than them.

I bet a&m is throwing some really good money at him.



While Gordon is LSU rich, he doesn't touch TAMU and UT rich. However, Todd Graves owner worth over $15 bil or around that? He seems to love LSU. Wish he'd open up the pocket books a bit more. I'd be surprised if there are any UT or TAMU alumni worth $15 bil like Graves is. The amount of people worth $15 bil or more in the world is 2 digits, that is why I think TAMU or UT doesn't have any $15 bil alumni. He could be our sole saving grace.

Obviously leveraging A&M offer to squeeze LSU. Blatant money grab, but can’t blame him for playing the game we created. Schools, coaches, networks pocketing millions for decades. Just surprised it took this long.

No question he is all about getting recruited, hope he actually likes playing football as much or someone is going to waste some serious money.

The remaining money will come from the ole fashioned way...

This is just revenue share from LSU to athletes.

NIL will still exist with caveat all contracts over $600 have to be audited as real by Deloitte.

This assumes the courts do not strike this down, but the field is not leveled with this at all.

We still need the collective more than ever and to tamper and the skirt the fence on NIL.

That’s why they are marketing a patch to go on a jersey.

While Todd Graves has supported LSU in the past, he's a UGA grad. It was his friend and business partner that went to b-school at LSU. Graves seems to really support a lot of different universities and communities and isn't singularly focused on giving to LSU athletics.

Mackenzie Scott and Michael Dell are both UT alum and could both buy and sell Graves. And they aren’t the only billionaire UT grads. I’m not sure if aTm has any alum who are worth more than Graves, but Jeff Hildebrand might be close. Now I don’t know if any of those folks support the athletic programs in any way, but even still, the reality is it’s the large number of millionaires who support those programs vs those who support LSU that really ends up moving the needle.

You’re joking right???? Texas and Texas A&M both have many many billionaires worth more than graves.
And they have hundreds if not thousands of alumni worth as much or more than Gordon

That part is irrelevant when it comes to individual money.

Good enough programs to get you drafted high. A&M is strictly money based, but Texas is a program on the rise

Maybe he just likes the way their cheerleaders do their gay little dances in their milkman outfits

Tamarion Watkins and Aggies also received CBs from another 4 star safety in Tylan Wilson who I think is scheduled to to commit in the middle of the month
