Everyone, including Texas, has paid players under the table for the last century. If I point out that a Texas commit made a comment about that being the reason he chose Texas, I'm "crying about it"?

ETA: All of these Texas fans are getting mighty upset over LSU fans' opinions that are backed up with data.

That data points to the fact that if a recruit wants any of these things:
(1) a shot at a national title;
(2) a shot at a conference title; or
(3) a shot at the NFL

Then Texas, Miami, USC, Tennessee (throwing them in here for now, but I believe them to be more legitimate than the rest), and A&M (the schools that are by in large throwing the most NIL money around) are not the schools they should attend. The data backs those points up.

If a kid wants to make a million dollars at 18 instead of having a better shot at 30 million at 22, I do not blame them at all. Every body has a different situation. No sour grapes from me. I also don't expect this to be the end of Colin's recruitment.
