Make no mistake. BK is setting NIL policy regardless of who is in control of the purse. It's his team and if he doesn't want a player being paid then that is that.

I'm not sure what this has to do with my post. The person I was replying to said that LSU can surely afford the big NIL payments for these portal DTs, because LSU football generates tens of millions of dollars each year. I pointed out that those millions are totally separate from the pool of money we spend on NIL.

Of course BK is in charge of deciding how the money is spent. But that doesn't mean we can use athletic department money to make NIL payments.
