The amount of donations LSU football received since 2023 would be enough to turn NOLa schools into best in America


Could afford to import a lot of Asian students with BK’s buyout that’s for sure

Wait until you find out what colleges are


College athletics, at the D1 level, have had very little to do with what colleges are for decades.

and what salary caps in pro sports are.



Salary caps in pro sports apply to the salary the teams pay players and place no limit on the amount of money they can make for their name, image, and likeness. It is partly why big market professional teams still have some advantage over smaller market teams, particularly with players on the margins.

The amount of research and grant money that our government pours into some of these universities, they sure do…..and taxpayers should demand so.

Do you think the federal government instituted a salary cap in the NFL?


Pop quiz: how is the NFL able to do this without getting sued?

Trump is right.

Situation is FUBAR.

Sportsmanship and bonding with the spirit of players and teams - that loyalty was a two-way street. This was the beauty of college football.

It's all dead, Jim.

How can anyone feel any loyalty whatsoever to corporate teams with mercenary coaches and players chasing the highest bidder (and getting) multi-millions?

Someone needs to do something. Unlimited transfers and unlimited pay for play bribery. College football is more absurd than WWE.
