Kelly says no to 2 DLs that were out shopping for a big payday. I thought the SEC rant would respect that we aren’t going to buy transfers.

Instead it’s a mocking fest.

I just don’t understand this place anymore.

You get no respect after buying last year's and this year's baseball teams.

And I'm sure if you could you would buy all the 5* football players.

I respect it. But not sure it's the formula for success in the NIL era. I hate what college football has become.

Brian Kelly is taking a stand and making a statement. I just hope he takes it further and fields a team of nothing but walk-ons. Now that would be noble and brave.

That's about all these pathetic SEC Rant Virgin Geek Trolls know how to do. It's really pitiful.

This is a lie. That TCU DT who went to OU made it crystal clear he was leaving TCU to get more NIL money. His handler publicly said so. He wouldn't have visited Baton Rouge without a nice offer on the table.

LSU may not be buying players but that is only because they are trying to buy players and are failing.

It's a mocking fest among the children and the haters and ... haters gonna hate.

I suspect that many of us respect BK's position on the matter and more are hoping that all coaches will take s similar stance and help to end the disingenuously mercenary behavior by the teenage kids, their agents and families.

It's outta control.

They said no to LSU because LSU doesn’t have the funds to get top guys nor the staff to coach up guys in their price range. They blew too much on gymnastics, and women’s basketball. It’s a budgeting issue with a coaching issue for funsies.

If LSU was standing on principle and not seeing big (relative to sport/game) NIL deals then sure, fight the hood fight. But 2 million to get Daniels from ASU? Nabers got half a million, etc. makes Kelly a hypocrite. When they had money they spent it.
