It is going to have to be to Louisiana Companies, Donors, Alumni etc. this offseason.

They have got to come up with every money stream they can come up with to even remotely compete with A&M and Texas.

And then they will have to recruit the Governor and Legislature to change the law to put it more in line with Texas' laws.

If they don't get that stuff in line, recruiting 4 and 5 stars isn't going to matter much.

I'm telling you, Portal will be where you get great players.

No way these schools keep talent happy by just paying for them

They did do that, but all that money was spent buying out the last coach, and before the on last coach's terrible hires, and before that on the last coach's prior terrible hires.

Does Gayle Benson look good in Purple and gold?

Maybe we should build a statue of her and invite her to the unveiling.

Ive heard this a few times now. How are our laws different than theirs? What about them hinders us? So and so forth.

Not sure. I think there may be some limits coming to NIL sooner rather than later. It won't go on unchecked.

Then you'll see Saban bitch about his players going to a division foe and rules will change to benefit him.

Those on here that follow this a lot closer than I do can correct me if I am wrong, but I *believe* that Texas allows Universities and Coaches to be directly involved in helping players find NIL deals, while Louisiana does not.

I get where you’re coming from, but the money people for most major programs has/is there to pay recruits. Just out in the open.
We need to either call when they splash the pot or quit complaining

Can't wait for first lawsuit when player demands funds that were only promised if they stay for a minimum of three seasons.
