It would become an even bigger mess if the government got involved.

He probably really sees this as an opportunity to skim money off the top.

Landry knows this is also how Trump thinks and he's just sucking up to Trump and looking for his next gig. He's knows he's one and done in Louisiana.

He needs to worry less about sticking his nose in football and try taking it out of the assholes of trial lawyers and oil companies.

You never really liked college football. You wanted a half-arse NFL with college logos. And now you have it.

So Landry wants the people responsible for this mail-truck to be put in charge of college football?

Ok, great, thank you.

This Landry guy leans strictly towards the constitution, correct?

That would college be college football death wish. This on top of what has happened with the NIL. I’m all for players getting paid but it has decimated some rosters. I miss the time not to long ago where when a recruit was signed there was a pretty good chance that he would be at the university for at least three years

The biggest problem with CFB and sports in general is gambling, and I don't expect Trump to cut the revenue streams of some likely donors.

They think we should be grateful that we are allowed to keep any of our money.

One would think our federal government has many more serious and pertinent issues to address in this country than college football.

And I love college football, but c’mon.

Imagine you are an 18 year old kid being a freshman on a top 10 college football team and someone gives you six figure NIL money.

How would you handle that ?

I remember when governors were so busy managing the executive branch of a state that they didn't even comment on football!

Why can't Louisiana have nice things??
It's because of idiots like this guy we elect!!!
He NEVER should have injected himself into the LSU coaching situation.
He's a fricking imbecile.
