Love it or hate it, LSU is leading CFB into this era.

If this team succeeds with some hardware, it will be the blueprint from here on out.

Lane has always been incredible at bending rules. Its a winner mentality. Hes doing his job. He went and got a guy who will kick arse in his system.

If they hate, they just wish they'd have done it first.

I remember the uproar about Lane faking injuries and the rule being changed. But dude wins and I respect it

The situation that is allowing for the oddities that have everyone's panties in a wad this year is not likely to happen again.

Indiana just won a NC with a bunch of 30 year old “kids”. Dang near every team in the CFB playoff had a transfer QB. You either stay ahead of the curve or you watch other teams play in the playoffs. The NCAA, players, and judges created this environment, not the schools. The NCAA could’ve slowly opened Pandora’s box but they chose to sit on their hands and hand out uneven punishments, pissing off every fan base that wasn’t a blue blood. Now they can, spend all their money fighting court case after court case until they’re broke. At this point, we need to divide CFB in to big boys with money and the ones that aren’t. Then create a commission with salary caps.
As far as feeling sorry for these kids of they get cut or lose their spot on the depth chart after spring and fall camp, oh well. They wanted to get paid and now they get the consequences that go along with being paid. You either produce or you don’t have a job. That’s it.

I actually think we are at the beginning more than the end. I courts are going to continue to chip away at every eligibility and transfer rule.
Players will play pro ball for 4-5 then come back to college.

I don’t like it, but I’d like it a whole lot less if it were another school were doing it and not LSU.

One of the reasons Kelly failed is because he would not or did not go after players others were funding. Ohio State and Texas spent far more than LSU in prior years. I don’t care for this era but LSU is not leading nothing

There are wholesome teams out there. Don’t need to support crap like this which is just professional league, players wearing whatever logo for most money, masquerading as student athletes.

The guy with the Locked on Ole Miss podcast. I started watching in November and still watch. Even in the episodes leading up to the CWS, the main topic was Lane and LSU.

Steven Willis needs to see his gynecologist about his never ending menstrual cycle.

Ole Miss fans are the epitome of hypocrites. How can you criticize LSU and then be okay with Chambliss getting another year? They do realize Chambliss likely would've did the same thing had he not got his injunction early especially if he didn't make a roster?

Until the NFL establishes an official Semi-Pro Professional Football League, all bets are off.

We're all playing by the same rules now, so have at it and let the chips fall as they may!

I don’t like where college football has gone with all of this.

If you want to be competitive you have to take every advantage you can. Because others will use every avenue and you’ll be left behind.

That said, I don’t like any of it.
Chambliss shouldn’t get another year, Pavia shouldn’t have got another year, these guys that coming back to LSU days before the season shouldn’t get another year. Etc.

Pump the brakes pal.

CFB is in shambles. Nobody is leading anything right now.

Steven Willis is a clown…he know this is OMs last year to actually make a push, there is enough talent there left over from Lane to have a solid season, then after that the decline begins…
