Not enough players? Why haven't they declared that they are entering the portal?

I think it will be more embarrassing to decline than accept the bid and lose in the first round. Actually, I think they will do pretty good in the NIT. They won't have to face any SEC teams - except maybe SC later on.

Can you imagine a LSU vs. South Carolina NIT Final?

So I guess it’s true that some players quit and are 100% gone. How is it that this increase of NIL money would not secure any of those guys? Thought it was all about the money now.

I’m assuming that there is some sort of payout that the conference gets right?



We may be forced to accept.

This is just dumb. And I see it here a lot.

This season needs to end. Period.

This stuff all comes out later
Link to all of the other players in the nation who have declared for the portal?

(Hint. There isn't one)

No. It's all about the NEXT money.

If it’s true that LSU can’t field a team, McMahon should just resign. There’s no recovery from that.

You sound like your campaigning for the hope that half the team to has quit. Go kick rocks

LSU is bad. McNuggets needs to go. But who cares if they go play? They should if given the opportunity

This doesn't all fit together logically.

That'd be great. It might make our dumbass admins acknowledge we've got a problem more than money.

By not accepting a bid, that fully validates all the McMahon memes-- chicken, coward, wimp, lily-livered, milktoast.

He needs to put a team on the court and fight like a MAN, for a change, and accept whatever outcome ensues

LSU will decline NIT bid if it comes. Mainly due to not enough players

A Hobson's cherse. Take the bid -- it's a lose lose either way so take the bid and not go full Boehner in front of the whole nation

That's weird. I thought SC was a competitor.

If that's true - that mirrors what we did after the Ben Simmons year and that was the most obvious case I've ever seen of a coach that had completely lost all respect and was maybe the most emasculated coach I'd ever seen at LSU in any sport - even more than Curley, and we gave him another year.

I had an old history professer at LSU whose big thing was that history was cyclical. If what you say is right - he was right.

And people don't think we have a mental health problem? LSU is done.
Season finished.
