In his defense he bet them to win while he was a redshirt fresh and not on the field. So he wasn't throwing games it appears

While throwing games would be worse, it really doesn’t matter. He would have inside information on matchups, injuries, etc. He can’t do what he did. .

quote:

Nah we good. We can find another back up

Which I also wouldn’t be opposed to. Nuss is the “best available” at this time which is why I brought him up, but I’d be OK looking at a backup other than Rattler.

quote:

---

He went to Georgia, his original partner was an LSU student, an LSU professor helped with the first business plan, and first restaurant was on LSU campus.

---

I had that professor for marketing around 1997. He would tell the story about the business plan and where it needed to be tweaked (if I remember correctly, the professor said the original project got a B+ grade). Even though they only had two locations at the time, I remember the professor admitting the original business plan might have been a little more successful than he first thought.

I agree with you in that I don’t think he is completely washed up (assuming he’s healthy), though he’s also not going to be the AK of even 2-3 years ago. The offensive line was awful last year and the bulk of his games were with Rattler at QB. I think with Shough and an offensive line that is healthy and plays relatively well, AK can be productive.

I’ll defend him a tiny bit too. He had the MCL sprain in November and really never looked the same. I’m not saying he was all-pro before, but he was better before the injury.

I like Shaheed, but he was a guy that we got via scouting small schools for a kick returner and then developed into an NFL caliber WR. I’m not saying there’s dozens of guys like that out there with his raw speed, but I’d rather take my chances finding another high-upside diamond in the rough rather than potentially paying him a lot of money, given team’s more pressing needs.

I don’t wear jerseys much anymore, but my favorite one to wear is my authentic 1988 Rickey Jackson jersey. It’s 37 years old, but still pristine. I wore it to the Super Bowl as a nod to our past (at that time). I’d have no issue wearing it again to the Dome for a game if I went with a jersey. Don’t care how old it is or how long ago he played. My opinion is it’s always OK to wear an all-time team great. There is no shelf life on those.

This guy clearly does not know what a direct quote is. A direct quote is the actual words someone said, not something that you heard through the rumor mill that someone says they heard LK say.

His point about litigation was absurd too.

quote:

---

If LSU can’t deliver on these incentives and Florida and Ole Miss are reportedly offering the same thing… wouldn’t that mean they can’t deliver either?

---

Exactly. His argument is that we can’t guarantee an NIL amount. But neither can anyone else.

Sauce for the goose. His argument is self defeating.

Maybe a coincidence, but have you noticed that many of these “sources” tend to release information on weekdays shortly after schools are let out?

I will say…at least Danman has a ton of posts and knows the rules if he’s wrong.

That would be pretty cool if accurate. He’s both a College and Pro Hall of Famer. Name recognition alone would get attention for SU.
