Yea I would like to see the proof. LSU promised a lot of money across multiple sports. So much you have to think they actually had it, otherwise that would be extremely irresponsible. Multiple "experts" questioning how they were going to get that much through NIL go, they had to have all that sorted out before committing that much NIL right?

LSU fans have no idea what this is. You came to the wrong place with facts.

Lane was promised they had a way to get it through NIL Go. Pretty sure everyone in BR was banking on NIL Go going away sooner rather than later. Not looking like that is happening.

There will be multiple players that either don't leave the dressing room or walk off the field or possibly even get on a flight for an away game this season due to lack of payment at SEC and Big Ten schools. Not saying it will be LSU but it will absolutely happen this season.

Assuming that happened, at any university, who would be liable for damages? Would it be an NIL collective or the school or both?

The contracts say "Pending NILGo approval". Agents and players don't realize what that means or don't care.

Highly doubt this happens. They’ll just take money from the children’s hospitals.

A Kardashian spending $$$ like it grows on trees, only to find out that the $$$ ain't real? Sounds like reality TV to me.

Don't believe everything you read, or in your case, someone reads to you!

I have a hard time believing it would be LSU (or anyone in the SEC) - but I would not be one bit surprised if at some point during the next year or two a team threatens to sit out / not play a game because a school has missed some payments. Probably in the ACC or Big 12 though - and probably a team that spent big to go all in one year and they drop some early games so the boosters who promised money decide not to pay up and the school ends up short.

It very well might be. I see it happening to multiple schools around the country.

I believe he is making fun of LSU having an auction to raise NIL funds.

NILSU Auction

quote:

45 “items/experiences” are up for Auction to raise funds for NIL

Items include:
- Pickleball with Kiffin
- Dinner with Coach Mulkey
- Puppy play date with Juice Kiffin
- Golf with Will Wade

I think LSU is a prime candidate for this. Promising a player more money and then hoping to figure it out later.
