CLK has proven he can build a team with players without the big names. He makes the big names with his system and results!

Watching dipshit billionaires pump that much money into unproven teenagers


what is their expected roi? seriously.....I mean they are throwing this money around and not getting anything for it? It seems that is something that is not sustainable. I would think a lot of them didn't get to where they are at by throwing money away...but then again, what do i know....because that certainly seems to be the case.

Nuss made 3.8 this year, from LSU and other opportunities which i think put him in top 5 earners in college football. Arch Manning was #1.

I agree with you, it definitely is not. But, these are the current rules. All you can do is roll with it, trust Lane's evaluations and the amount he is willing to spend on certain kids.

Spend that money on a premier OT like Lance Heard.

Totally agree. It’s why Lane is at LSU. Also, as a Pokes fan, I’m thrilled with our direction. It’s why Gundy got the boot and Eric Morris was brought in.

That’s what I keep hearing. It looks like ALL collage TEAMS are 1 QB injury from being also rans. No depth because of NIL.

True. What people should be worrying about is defense.

Need to get out of the bidding wars and look who's sitting on the bench at these major universities. There's diamonds there if one looks hard. Louisville just picked up Ohio St backup qb and I bet got him cheap

We don't need to pay hyperbucks for a QB. We can get a stud QB riding the pine at Nicholls or Southeastern for a couple thousand and with Lane calling plays win a few games.

Is this college football? My God, what in the hell is happening throwing all this money around to these kids. These shenanigans won’t survive.

Sometimes new environment and coaching can turn a guy around. Chamblis from a school I didn't know existed and Burrow was a backup that likely wouldn't see much action at Ohio St.

Nothing wrong with finding gold on the cheap if you can.

There are so many good players out there, I trust Kiffin to find his guy.
