re: Update: Video clip of Jordy this morning saying LSU boosters are making plans to pay KB

Bama and A&M offering 150k to a kid who’s not in the transfer portal and is currently on a team. How can this be legal?

So basically a full scholarship all the coaching all the weight training nutrition training the tutoring getting on television every weekend just as an Justice and enough these guys have to be paid now....

Think of the millions of college athletes that have come before today dad that were grateful for everything they received from the University and now we've got fans scheming to raise money to keep a player from flipping to arrival a rival with a big bag of money....


They have ruined college football with unintended consequences it all started with having a little extra money to go home and see mama for the holidays and now we're talking about you know serious money....

K&B had some good store brand ice cream back in the day. Tin Roof Sundae FTW..

As a little kid I liked the 5 gallon bucket of K&B Neopolitan.

What? That’s just insane.

Thanks NCAA for ruining College Football. You sumbitches must be on FJB staff..

So he's not in the portal yet he's getting NIL offers from other schools?
Isn't that a violation

nope. A suit store or a dodge dealership in Tuscalooser can offer KB, or any other player at any other school, an NIL if they want. Their name, image, or likeness is their property and theirs alone; and their money spends just like anyone elses.

THIS is why the schools should have had a stake. I said stake, not "say". By that I mean players NIL should be partially tied to the school. Instead of "KB" it would be "KB of LSU". Instead, the school has no stake, thus isn't allowed to have interest. Therefore it is open season

Quid pro Quo's are permitted, just not pay for play.

I said in another post... you are either predator or prey. We're the gazelle. Always on the defensive.

ETA: the solution lies not in the NIL, but in the portal. Including immediate eligibility. Take the portal out of the equation and the whole thing goes away. Take immediate eligibility out of it and it slows way down. There's no point in paying to poach a player if he can't be poached.

The reality is that if LSU wants to be a football powerhouse going forward, it's going to have to become a NIL powerhouse first.

why am I not surprised that "NILSU" is behind on getting NIL deals done

The rule stipulates that a player can hire an agent to negotiate his NIL deals with a company. The RULE says the agent can't continue to represent the player in any other context.Yea, right. It's the agents who are making the shady contacts & phone calls. An agent can call 5-6-7-8 companies representing 5-6-7-8 different schools & find the best deal for his client. Some players are actively involved, not illegally, and this was Kiffen's take on this : " a player approached me & told me 'I am already offered this. What do you have to offer?' This is the first few mths of this system. Imagine how refined agents will make of this system in the years to come. This is only the tip of the iceberg, it's going to get a lot worse.

The whole thing is out of control

It will be for a while. But, once people start getting little return for their NIL dollars, this stuff will calm down. It is unsustainable for the amount of money that is being thrown around right now.
