This has OU written all over it.


That's a double edged sword, though. I don't know what Texas and OU's situations are, but how do you, as LSU, offer this kid $1 million out of the portal and tell your All-American LT he should be satisfied with $400k? Texas could out bid either of us and the rumor is that they are also balking at what he's asking for. At some point you have to say enough is enough. I wish all three programs would turn him down if he's asking for what is being rumored.

Exactly. Signing someone to a ridiculous NIL amount is a surefire way to piss off the entire team.. I read that we were willing to go pretty high for a guy like Jordan Addison.. but that's defensible because the guy was a superstar.

Williams is good.. perhaps even really good.. but he isn't a superstar where it is worth pissing off the rest of the team.

I'd be shocked if it isn't OU at this point.
