I get the impression LSU is spending NIL like drunken sailors since Lane got there.


Their entire athletic department is a joke. Nothing opens the pocketbooks like embarrassment.

Lane failing would be the ultimate embarrassment...they're going to try to prop him up early on by max spending.

I don't claim to know how their NIL is funded or by whom but I would think they can't keep this pace up indefinitely.

Todd Graves and Gordon McKernan….nothing like giving 17 year olds millions of dollars to play college football while Louisiana ranks at the top of the list in most violent crime, 49th worst education system, dead last in streets/infrastructure, most traffic collisions, along with topping the charts in obesity rates and diabetes.

Nothing like funding a semi-pro football team with money that comes from a combination of children hospitals that are State-run, a larger than life injury lawyer, and a chicken finger restaurant chain.

They seriously are 100% okay with letting the entire State of Louisiana burn to the ground if it means reaching the CFP. It’s freaking pitiful

1. Children hospital
2. Injury lawyer mogul Gordon McKernan
3. Chicken finger fast food chain

That’s 100% truth

Which chicken finger fast food chain? I want to be sure and not go there if t hey're funneling $$$ to LSU, When Phil Fulmer was at Tennessee and was outed as the "secret witness" the NCAA used to hammer us, anytime my family (wife and kids) would travel from Huntsville, AL to see family in Virginia, I always made a point of gassing up right before entering the state and loading up on snacks because I didn't want to spend one single cent in the state of Tennessee. I didn't want any of my money making it's way to UT.

My kids were 4 and 6 at the time. Every time we would pass through Knoxville, I trained them on this:

"Where are we, kids?"

The kids would say, "We're pilgrims in an unholy land!"

Raisin Canes. They’re shite tenders anyway. Avoid them. Maybe do some vandalism if you get the chance

Bummer. We have Raisin Canes here and I like them. I guess I’ll have to go to Chick-Fil-A instead.

But as soon as you suggest that perhaps we simply tax the shite out of these people so they can't pour millions of dollars into their personal vanity projects, buying up media outlets, and funding political candidates anymore it's literally communism.

The fact we got people rich enough to pay 18 year olds millions to play football and they don’t even make money off the talents of the kid, tells me we need to raise the marginal tax rate on the top bracket significantly.

If you got that kind of money to burn, let’s build out and maintain physical infrastructure that ultimately will make these rich morons more money than this.

We got to Prattville yesterday afternoon and my daughter saw that Jack's has Conecuh dogs right now so we decided to give them a shot last night.

Their chicken tenders with the comeback sauce were surprisingly good.

Yeah that Jacks Conecuh is pretty solid. Kowaliga near Lake Martin has a damn good Conecuh dog too.

Too many good options for tenders to be supporting LSU NiL

One being built less than a mile from campus in Ttown. Actually one on Campus too, but that one is actually run by Aramark I think.

I’ve never been to one that isn’t bad. I think it is impossible now because Louisianans even tell me the last time it was good was maybe around the Obama years.
