One of the dumbest things I’ve read on this board
Plenty of portal players currently are strictly looking for a payday. Period, end of discussion. They may see this as their version of the NFL, even.
Do you even remotely follow recruiting?
I don't think you're following.
It's completely logical for a player to go to the school that gives them the most money.
What recruiting is now, is convincing players to come to your school if you aren't offering as much money, or by getting more money for the players you're recruiting to your school.
Kelly failed on the first count and refused to do the second. So he missed. That's his failure, not the players. What they did was completely logical.
Him calling out those players for not being convinced is ridiculous. It's not their fault that you couldn't get them more money or convince them to take less to go to LSU, a school they have no connection to yet.

That's the rest of the story. If you look at 24/7 they rank LSU 15 out of the 16 SEC teams in the portal transfer. That's almost dead last when they knew they had a huge hole in their defense to fill. Doesn't pass the smell test.
They also haven't recruited a defensive lineman yet in this '25' cycle. But they have a ton of offensive guys. Makes you wonder if someone stole Kelly's playbook when he left Notre Dame.

Oh I follow.
What you’re failing to realize, or follow, despite me clearly stating, is the obvious.
Some kids, or rather their handlers, are going to take the most money, period. And it’s naive to think otherwise.
I’m saying you’re naive. And maybe a little obtuse.
