We've seen the conversation about the bad things about NIL. This is a story about how great it can be.

JUST IN: Brandon Landry, founder of sports bar @walk_ons and a walk-on to the LSU basketball team, reveals he is going to pay LSU walk-on Parker Edwards’ tuition for the rest of undergrad and for graduate school in the latest name, image and likeness deal.

Wow! Love seeing stories like this.

Hopefully that young man will succeed and be able to pass this on one day to someone else that could use a similar opportunity.

He was on the Russillo podcast and he said he wants a walk on at every college he has a restaurant at.

Parker Edwards goes off against LSU

When Parker was a freshman at Southeastern LA, he went nuts in the second half against LSU, getting MVP chants from the LSU students, some of which knew him well in high school. A great moment.


Check out his line in the box score:

College sports are the best.

We had a similar walk-on scoring moment last night.

Here is a company providing NIL contracts to all the players on the team apparently. What do y'all think about that? (crowdpush.com)
