quote:People keep getting caught up on this 10 mill and 13-15 mill number. Think about it like this, that number is skewed because of 1 year assasins. Ole Miss's group is likely skyrocketing the number. Not only will they not be able to do that yearly, the transfer portal won't always fit to meet their needs at their price. Do people not understand that they will be losing the vast majority of their 2 deep after next year? It's all transfers.
the median amount that SEC collectives will spend on football teams next season is $10 million. He estimated the top end will be $13-15 million, while the median throughout the Power Four conferences will be $4.5 million.
Texas, UGA, and Ole Miss are pumping the numbers high right now, but don't think that makes the team always elite just because of the payouts. Kids still have to be developed and retained. LSU wants to be a mix of Michigan and UGA. They want to build a culture of wanting to play for LSU, while at the same time, getting reasonable compensation. Look at the guys who are here, you'd have to be a fool to think Perkins, Campbell, and Jones wouldn't fetch top market prices. After the spring game, Lacy could have fetched high prices as well. They are choosing to stay at LSU and get less money than they would on an open market. BK is looking for these type of kids. You still get money, but money is only the extra on top of everything else LSU can do for you.

I’m not saying I disagree with the overall premise of your post, but this isn’t how medians work.
