This has been so overblown. In context, he was simply saying we don't want to have a situation where we take guys that don't really want to be at LSU but we paid them so much to come that they couldn't turn it down.

I'm exponentially more comfortable paying guys big money that are already on your roster and contributing for your program than paying a big money portal guy.
From a locker room perspective, it's much easier to sell Will Campbell getting a bag after all he's meant to the program than dropping ba...

Disagree. It was a good, strong hit that didn’t contact his head. Play on.
I will agree it did look worse live than it actually was. ...

Looked like a clean hit. Toews head was off to the side and the contact came to that shoulder/collarbone area. ...

Heading to Europe this summer. London question.

We got about a 13-13.5 hr layover in London this summer when we take the trip across the pond. I'm leaning towards exploring a bit of the city during that stretch. Any folks who've been to London that have an opinion on...

1) If these students were former students and no longer enrolled, how were they able to gain access to the campus?

[quote]Notes on a 100k home at 10% plus were far higher relatively than the average note three years ago[/quote]
Apples and oranges.
There are multiple factors that you omit here. What about the fact that 100k in the 90's bought you substantially more house than today? I grew up in a 2000 sq...

I wasn't alluding to anything. It was an obvious either/or since you don't use charcoal in a gas grill and vice versa.

8-10 years ago people would have said to pay more than $300k for any home would be absolutely stupid.
Those same people are now trying to argue a $200k apartment is a good investment.

[quote]It's gotten absurd. The concept of just telling a young person "go buy a house, and if you can't do that it's just because you're not working hard enough" is just wrong
it's not wrong. It's exactly how I did it. I worked for years before I could afford a home. I lived in an...
