In fact, a lot of them don't. There is still something to traditional recruiting, you better offer a competitive NIL package too though.


The problem was and is that Brian Kelly didn't send out a qualifier on what he meant. That seems to be your job. The National News Cycle picked his comments up in a flash and now Kelly might have a PR problem. At the least, he will be explaining this to future portal candidates.

Kelly may not be Dabo with the way he pushed himself into a NIL/Transfer corner but he can't say he's not bidding at LSU when he's bidding at LSU.

Did Saban have a PR problem when he said A&M bought their recruiting class and Alabama didn't?

Actually, he did if you listened to the entire interview. Try having more information than the headline before you give your incorrect opinion.

So, yes LSU is bidding by making ONE offer but they will not get in a bidding war (multiple rising offers) in order to get a player and kill the team chemistry. This may be self serving but it is also true and it will be up to every coach to figure out the line not to cross as it pertains to team chemistry.
