NIL funding to make it the richest place in the nation to play basketball. Money talks, bullshite walks when it comes to these guys.

Basketball is a different animal. It isn’t local boosters funding student athletes, it’s Nike/Adidas/UA.

The only possible reason I can come up with is NIL. Are the basketball boosters going to open up the checkbook for McMahon?




LSU has successfully attracted top 100 players for the last 25 years. Players have always gotten paid.



LSU has at least 5 former top 100 players on the current roster.

Chest & Williams (current freshmen)

Ward & Reed (last year's class)

Damion Collins (14th overall player nationally)


You seem like a big basketball fan.

You mean the ones that don’t have coaches offices or weight room?




Don't they have a weight room they just renovated and built?

No offices though, thats in a completely separate place

LSU needs one or two years of mercs who can make it to the F4, then the recruits will come.

LSU doesn’t need to get to the Final Four to start getting recruits

Look around at the overall athletic success at LSU in recent memory. Win and they will support you unlike any other fan base. You are the missing piece to bringing the program back to relevance. Oh, and here's Gordan with a briefcase of $100k cash

LSU is a Top 10 university for athletics. It doesn’t need to sell itself to a Top 100 player. Don’t come…you’re Tiger Bait.
