If Brian Kelly offers a player and LSU puts out an NIL deal, and the player asks for more and LSU gives more to the player, is Brian Kelly and LSU buying players?
Depends on the context of the deal.
If the kid is only coming to LSU because they're paying the most, then yes, that's buying a player.

I disagree completely.
If LSU raises the offer, then they are buying the player.
The "building relationships", "facilities", and "scheme fits" have less weight than Brian Kelly's waist line.
And LSU is using the bag to get the player. That literally is buying the player.
Edit to add: LSU doesn't even have to be the highest bidder to be buying the player. The second they raise their offer, they are involved in commerce/supply and demand. It isn't personal. It's business.
