Coaching departures are a different story....

He's not wrong there.  We just need to work to a point where we are reloading with good talent instead of rebuilding like someone else mentioned before me.

So basically, you want everybody but that actual athlete to get paid huh?

Nope. Just want a level playing field - not free agency. Put some restrictions in place.

As soon as we can strip their scholarships/room and board/free clothing/tutoring and just pay them for the product THEY deliver, I think it would be OK.  Keep in mind that does away with all women’s sports and anything outside of football and mens basketball but I think it’s worth doing.

BB would not be smart to leave this year. He would be smart to pad his stats for another year, maybe two and then collect that $1M+ payday. I don't see any P5 offering 1M based on a season of putting up number against a ****** conference. 

Oh, and if someone offers him that much money (garunteed), he sure as **** better be packing his bags. I wouldn't be mad at all. 

if he is offered a million dollars he would be smart to leave

people who say,"we should try to hold on to him" make it sound like he is a piece of personal property?

pay him his value or wish him well

You know who is making a killing with NIL?   That one gymnastics chick at LSU.   She has so many simps, aka lonely dudes, who fawn over her internet presences that they show up at LSU gymnastics events.   LSU now has to pay for extra security, so she is probably costing LSU more money, especially for a sport that does not make money to begin with.

USF should do that to boost NIL interest at USF.   Recruit attractive young girls in whatever girls sports.  Girls who are more interested in being social media influencers.   They can set up their bikini websites and sell images to the drooling simps, and USF can say that we have a burgeoning NIL program.

however she is giving lsu great publicity and notoriety

Just helping other people understand how college athletics works at a very high-level. Everyone wants to point to the billions college football makes but don’t wanna point to the billions that are paid out to other sports and student athletes across all programs.  
 

Pay all players as employees and the universities can still have their fun.  Let the market decide.  If there are no scholarships, there’s no reason for title ix.  Abandon it so football players can get paid.  If we really care….
 

But stop acting like they are not compensated.  No one is forced to play college football or college volleyball.  The vast majority come out on top with a free education, free room and board. Free tutoring, free clothes let’s stop with the ********.
