It’s demoralizing day after day watching Ole Miss rack up on all these portal players. The sports talk here in Mississippi have been talking about the Grove Collective for months and how organized it has become. Obviously they got their shite together after 2 years of just having bagmen all over the state. Is this subscription based collective sustainable long term? Or is this a one time push all the chips in and go for a championship.

I agree. If they lose Dart then all that money goes to waste.

Enjoy the downvotes. TD doesn’t understand this is college ball now and we aren’t keeping up.

I just signed up for the Natty Club in hopes we can get to the level that Ole Miss is at. The guys on the radio said the 2 main guys were the real Tree guy and some guy that has a lot of car dealerships in New Orleans and other Louisiana cities ugh.

They’re not gonna win anything of meaning even if they make the playoff next season. I’m not concerned about them long term either.

Chicken needs to put a banner up on this website to our collective.

I agree but I’d love to have a couple of the players they brought in.

I have contended for a long time that I don’t believe that it is. There is a limit to how much you can squeeze out of Joe Everyman and that limit is diminished every year you don't win something

Are you a grown man?

That’s the most pathetic thing I’ve ever read.

LSU has a different portal philosophy than Ole Miss.

I think it’s great that Ole Miss has assembled a college all star team and no one in the country will have more talent than them, so that when Lane Kiffin loses 2 or 3 games and doesn’t win a conference or national championship, people will finally realize there is no scenario where he is a championship football coach.

2 of LSU’s 3 losses this year were against teams with a different portal philosophy than LSU

I’m just saying

this is a one year thing for them. They are putting all of their money into a run next year. They will not be doing this year after year.

So you are satisfied with the direction our NIL program is heading? It’s working in baseball but football is another animal. If I’m pathetic to want to be able to land 1 or 2 players that could help us win another Natty then I’m pathetic. We have the depth but a couple of defensive players could be the difference for us next year.

The NCAA model for this shite is retarded. First off the school makes over $100 million off football but can’t use any of that on its players. Then these kids are getting bags and then transferring the next year. Unless they are signing a 3 year contract with the team and getting paid for loyalty I don’t think anybody should donate shite personally, but y’all do y'all thing. You can’t have it where players get paid but have nothing locking them in to the school. There needs to be buyout clauses an everything just like any other contract. You wanna transfer then whoever you going to owed LSU’s collective 2x what they paid you so they can use it on someone else. You can’t have this wide open shite they got going on right now. To each their own I guess

I agree. I don’t see how this is sustainable long term.

They have a lot of people who give small amounts that add up to alot. I believe they have between 5-6 thousand people giving $100.00 bucks or more
