am sure that LSU has some sort of structure for NIL expenditures. It would have been ridiculous to pay big money have to guys who really have not been anything close to approaching elite status


I'm sure this holds some truth but I wonder, how do we explain the payments to HS kids that have done absolutely nothing let alone approach being elite? Some making more than current starters. Wheres the concern with egos there? Sounds good but really doesnt hold water. We missed and now the spin narrative has been unleashed.

What, you mean like an Underwood or Perkins?

It's easy. They are wildly incredible talents in high school and they're likely to contribute heavily if not immediately start at the next level.

This doesn't compare to a guy like Dominic Williams, who is something like the 23rd overall defensive lineman in the portal in 2024, and has faded into oblivion any time he's faced actual competition.
