If Simmons picks LSU, Texas will need to reevaluate everything and decide if they want to compete for championships or not.
Huh? Dude, you don't win every single recruiting battle. If Simmons ends up at LSU, then tip your cap and move on to the next guy. Saying that a team is not committed to "compete for championships" because they lost out on a 17-year-old recruit to another traditional power is a crazy way to go through life.

Both LSU and Texas have been all in on recruits before only to see them choose a different school. Life goes on and the world is still turning the next day

This one is different. The biggest recruit at the biggest position of need. If Texas loses here it's because their NIL deal wasn't sufficient.

You're thinking pre-NIL. In this new world a team can legally say we're breaking the bank to ensure this one player in the class doesn't get away.
