Is there any chance Drew Burress enters the Transfer Portal?

With todays transfer portal rules and LSU being the NIL powerhouse that it is; is there any shot we can convince this kid to make a move?
-21 HR as a True Freshman so far this year at Georgia Tech (Leads TF)
- .375 Batting Avg (Leads Team)
-.824 slg%
- 58 RBIs (Leads Team)
-59 Runs (Leads Team)
-14 Doubles (Leads Team)
----14 out of his first 15 college hits went for extra bases
----went 4-4 with 4 HR and a walk in a game earlier this season
A lot of casuals assume this is a Tommy White situation and no way he stays at GT right??
Well heres the issue w that:
-Top 50 highly touted HS prospect
-Projected Top 2 Round Pick out of HS but fell due to his size(5'9" 182lbs)
-Opted to play college ball instead
-Could have gone to any college he wanted
-Georgia kid that chose Georgia Tech
The Tigers are going to need to do a better job of putting the stick on the ball next year if they want a shot. We need to get some hitters
He could easily take the NIL $$ from somewhere or transfer to somewhere where he has a real chance to play for a championship.
Does $$ talk? Or is this kid going to be one of the first ones to actually stay loyal to his university during this crazy Portal/NIL era that we're in?
I'd respect the hell out of him if he stayed at GT. But it would also be pretty cool if he came to LSU.... obviously if he goes anywhere else in the SEC, hes an instant sell-out
