TAF isn't giving out NIL deals. It's illegal
TAF is competing for the same dollar that these NIL deals are competing for.

Our poor alumni base just cant compete

It won't. There are literally no rules. None.

Scott Woodward wants NOTHING to do with NIL
The premise is so stupid as to defy belief.
To the extent there are problems, they exist because of state NIL legislation and a pool of available money that is much smaller than our nearest competitors.
Woodward has no control over the latter but he can try to do something about the former.

Did you stop paying attention in early December? There have been some great moves lately.

OP is a moron
Well he is wrong for sure. According to NCAA guidelines NIL money should not be paid to players until they actually play. It is not supposed to be used as a recruiting tool. Coaches cannot offer NIL as part of recruitment.
State Laws also get involved with the payout of NIL but I am sure it varies from state to state.

Why would government hacks getting paid millions give a shite?

They don't get it. Don't even start the conversation.
Most don't even realize how it has been done for years, much less what they need to do now.
LSU is not competing with these school's financially. Profit margin? Yes
Budget? Hell no
We have geographical/political advantages, and we must depend on some loyalty in those regards.
Personally, I'm not interested in the free market/highest bidder without loyalties
I will move on, as I have in other interests

He better figure it out or he won’t be the AD for long. As football goes, so does his job. That’s facts.

I think you are bitching and complaining about things that NCAA is going to be forced to correct. They literally gave SMU the death penalty over something that is now approved. I think they are going to have to start looking at how they can limit compensation to athletes per year to keep parody in the leagues. Like an athlete is limited to $100k in NIL deals annually. It is much more likely that they can get that to work legally than they could stop people from using their NIL in general to make any money.

Do we have the money to compete with the Texas schools? no
Everyone else? yes
Why would you offer a 3* TE and a good RB(the least important position on the field where you are deep at) more money than they are worth?)
I mean we offered Matthews hundreds of thousands of dollars

Put differently, Woodward just spent $117M for a coach of a sport that we can’t hope to compete in due to inherent and maybe unfixable structural limitations.
That does not seem smart.
