Who’s paying the buyout then?


LSU owes it out of their rev share

The minute the buyout is paid is the minute Ole Miss will release him.


Has OM placed him in the portal?

Don't have to process the paperwork until the money has been paid.

How can LSU offer him if he's not in the portal? That's tampering

Well the school that signs him would owe it, no?

So the paperwork would have to be filed so he is officially in the portal for any of this to happen?

It seems we are skipping a step here to move the process along.

I'm not saying the rules make perfect sense, but those are the current rules. And your also assuming we live in a world with no tampering and every player entering the portal is 100% open. In reality everyone is tampering and 75% of players entering the portal already know where they are going and for how much money.

For example, Washington refused to release Desmond into the portal until LSU paid. LSU decided not to, so Washington never processed his paperwork.

Everyone tampers. What's your point? Currently there's no penalties for tampering. This is purely a breach of contract / damages situation.

It seems very risky for any team to pay the buyout just to get the player into the portal. Anyone could swoop in and get him at that point.

Is there a rule preventing the player from paying the buyout to get out of the contract? Surely he could make a deal with his new team to be reimbursed.

I think this will be his 4th team.

No idea to be honest. The issue is that the buyout comes out of the buying teams rev share amount (so that $20.5 mil figure all teams have). No idea how it would work to reimburse the player with rev share while that money also going to the "selling" school. I'm sure something could work though.

LSU has already paid Ole Miss for Harper, so surely they've figured this out once already. No idea though why LSU paid immediately with Harper but Prince is dragging out.

This is written like a comment at the bottom of a TMZ article. Sassy man gossip.

My point is, it would be foolish for LSU to communicate with the kid after the way OM has thrown around the "tampering claim" against Kiffin over the last two months.

Ole Miss should waive the buyout if he signs with a beam outside the SEC.

You don't think Lane is tampering? Not just OM players, but everyone. Absolutely everyone is tampering and all are completely brazen about it all.

Your either incredibly neive or still in that stage of fandom where Lane has never and will never break a single rule because he's perfect in every single way.
