sure, but we shouldn't have to pay for his commitment twice in a calendar year. That's just not cool
The transfer portal is changing the game. It’s a golden opportunity to get paid twice for some.
Cam Newton was ahead of his time. He got paid by 3 SEC schools.

I’ve seen LSU fans say that podcast is BS. Lunatik, for all you complain about how much fake news there is around Will Wade, you would think you would do better than unverified Twitter accounts

That podcast is definitely not BS

Just telling you what some LSU fans said

Who said that? I'm legitimately curious.
Their Twitter and all looks like some kind of troll job but they've been spot on with all kinds of stuff.

These guys have been on top of pretty much everything involving LSU athletics since they started.

I'd believe them. 400k for Arik though,
An O-lineman’s father got 180k embezzled from a hospital. I would expect skill players to command considerably more

I'd believe that damn podcast over the beat writers at this point

I guess we decided 375k was the most we would do since he doesn't like to block.

This could also come back to bite LSU in the azz if O paid him

400k for a quitter ? Damn, Andre Anthony should ask for 6 million. He doesn't quit.

I have no idea who they know, but somebody over there clearly knows someone who matters. They may need to dial it down on some of this stuff, though. Trying to break this story is probably not in LSU's best interest. I also didn't really care for them breaking the Mainieri retirement news before he was able to himself. That's one of those times where it was probably the right thing to do to let Mainieri break the news himself, a little classless to take that from him and having guys on the team find out through their twitter feed before the coach was able to address them

So how many times did he get paid now, 3 times? LSU, FLA now UGA? Go on Arik.
Go on Arik.Posted on 6/2/21 at 4:55 pm to TigerLunatik
$400K????? Lol Georgia deserves this frickstick. I’d pay money to be a fly on the wall when he’s being interviewed by teams prior to the draft because they will not hold back because of “mental issues”. They are investing millions in a player so they are going to dig deep. I can see Gilbert having an ultimate meltdown right in that interview room. Maybe he starts throwing chairs or maybe he just cries for his momma but it’s going to be interesting.

Guess LSU didn’t steal enough money last season to pay this guy to stay. What happened? Did Covid restrict their access to children’s hospitals?

Wouldn't that likely mean he went to LSU for a lot of money?

Atkins reminds me of another sportsman in the sec who took a down payment from one school and then crossed the border and negotiated a deal down on the plains with another.
