He didn’t ‘commit’. He ‘chose LSU for now.’

Cool, he likes the LSU look for the moment. Hopefully he commits on signing day.

Texas and the Butteyes have the largest NIL budgets in the NCAA. Unfortunately, many, including LSU, cannot match those dollars. Soon it will be just like MLB with the Yankees and Dodgers payroll and everyone else. BRING BACK AMATEURISM!

I don't think it will work out this way. It's now Revenue Share, and teams are capped at $20.5 million. I think NIL is now gone, and it has to go through the school, and capped at $20.5 mil. So it puts LSU in equal shoes with UT and Ohio St. I may be wrong, but I think this is how it will be. NIL goes through school capped at $20.5 mil, now called Rev Share.

It’s like a joke among Tiger fans that I guess you had to be there to get.

Pensacola has a ton of great football players and LSU fans. Glad LSU has hit on one for a change.

2026. To hold on to dudes like this, we need to perform in 2025.

I don’t get the “big factor being depth chart.”
This off season we brought in 3 seasoned pass rushers and 2 will be starting. Glad he will wear purple & gold next year!

Wow guys think we don’t have the dollars after all these championships LSU brings in. Been to 4 in football last 40 won 8 in baseball last 40. LSU somehow finds the dollars wouldn’t say.
