Still running with the fake insider schtick?
Oh yea and these dumb fricks are buying it. Notice the info he developed? Two bagmen, one from OSU and one from Bama. Those two schools have been rumored as destinations for Ricks since he entered the portal.

Not to mention, if he's in the portal they've already made a deal but the moms gave vanilla fricking ice the details of it all including the bagmen's names.

NIL “agents” approached him and his mom at the midpoint of last season. These guys are scumbags who target talented players on bad teams, giving them bad info, and causing a rift between the player and school


I don't give a shite how big of a scumbag these NIL guys are. These players wanted to get paid, now they are getting paid. It's up to them to weed out the bad actors. You lay down with the dogs you come up with flea's.

Seams like he had one foot in the transfer portal from the time he showed up on campus.

He is putting money first, you could say Kelly did the same thing. I am sure I will get lots of down votes but both made a move for money and what they perceive as a better situation.



I would say Kelly made himself into a top commodity and it paid off. If these kids would concentrate on being great players, the money would follow. They want it all at once, which is just being young. Unfortunately, if they don’t have someone reasonable in their corner this stuff will keep repeating.

Kelly
Grand Valley State - 13yrs, 118 wins, 6 NCAA Division II tournament appearances, two national titles
Cincinnati - 4 yrs, 34 wins, 4 bowl appearances
Notre Dame - 12 yrs, 113 wins, one BCS appearance, 2 playoff appearances

Ricks
LSU- 1 1/2 years, third team All-American, Freshman All-America selection

Sorry, no comparison there.


How can you compare time frames/accomplishments for coaches and college players. How exactly is Ricks supposed to stick around 29 years to establish his credentials where he can go after the money like Kelly can? He is about likely halfway through his time in college.

Like you said, no comparison other than they are two guys who should be able to take care of their future with opportunities they think are best for them without getting shite on.

Complicated and Racist.

As is Geometry, Trigonometry and Calculus.

BTW, my Double Secret Probation BBQ Sauces all confirmed my opinion that many of the Big Money Power Brokers privately told CRTate to keep his arse out of the football coach search or else. That's why the Shite Show with CRT trying to force a "Minority" HC never seriously developed.

This was too important a hire for LSU and the Baton Rouge economy to be messed up with Libtard Woke politics. (And I don't really care if anybody believes it or not)......

Did anyone see King Richard on HBOMax? They were going to pay Venus 3 million at 14 years old before she played her first pro match. Different sport but if your good enough you will get paid.

I have both of these fricker’s names and I’m thinking about blasting them. One is from Detroit and is a big OSU guy. The other is in LA and wants Eli to go to bama.

Please do this

No one cares about a player that's no longer with the program. Let Rick's chase whatever it is he's trying to chase.

So in other words, Ricks does not have a mind of his own; Hopefully Kelly brings those types of players to LSU.

Or better yet use it to our advantage. We should have 3rd parties not only seeking out the best from other teams but getting deals for our current players.


And what makes you think teams that have a lot of rich alumni won’t do this better than everyone else. Before long teams like USC, Oregon, Miami, Texas, OSU, Bama, etc will be killing everyone else

How is it that you know this information about their background and he and his mom doesn’t? If they do have this same info and still proceed with this knowledge then that’s on them.

that's sort of my point- they will. It has started already. Price tag for Bryce Young was 1 mil in NIL deals.

Don't want to get to far behind, and need to setup the "process" now.

Think of it like the facilities arms race... you could say you don't need fancy facilities, just functional. Not basic, not shortcutted, same equipment just no cosmetics or bells/whistles. While your competition goes the other way.

It will hurt you. While you are catching up you will feel that pain.

Just the mere fact that there is a "process" and a recruit knows that is what is needed. When LSU comes calling, they need to know there's a NIL deal waiting. Because our competition will (has) started that.
