College Transfer Portal going crazy! (1 Viewer)

Most of these college players will never become professionals.

The college programs use them up and spit them out after 4 or 5 years.

I'm glad today's college players can use the leverage they have for the short window of time that they have it.
 
Why aren't we getting any of these big-name transfers?
 
We don't have the crazy money that these large megaplex cities have. BR is small potatoes compared to Houston, Dallas, LA, Miami etc. One single booster offered 100k to all members of the team in Miami. Each of these cities has more residents than all of Louisiana.
 
truth. There's no loyalty anymore. It sucks. These kids are selfish. A school offers them a scholarship, room, board, training , platform to showcase their skills they were taught, then jump ship when they don't get their way. Great life lesson right there, eh? Instant gratification at it's finest. Let alone this NIL $ they get now. When the 97% of them have to go get a real job in the real world and can't understand why life is so unfair to them, they can't handle it.
It's practice for dealing with both the NCAA and the NFL who will treat these men as a commodity and throw them away if they get injured. Tit for tat, they're looking out for themselves because the universities and the NFL will not look out for them. Many of these athletes will be straw dogs, so it's wise to trade a longshot at the NFL for an education in the likely event the NFL does not pan out.
 
Losing Mickey Joseph as WR coach may hit you guys hard this next year.
LSU might miss on a player or two because of the timing, but the ones that remain will get a boost with a real WR Coach. Frank Wilson will.more than make up for any recruiting deficiency caused by his absence. Mickey was well loved and an elite recruiter, but he didn't know much about developing receivers.

I think DJ Chark, Gage, Jefferson, Chase, Marshall, and Boutte might disagree about the development part.

Chark and Gage left LSU raw as hell. Jefferson, Chase and Marshall give credit to Brady, as does Mickey.
 
Does this mean we're going to see Boutte's face, along with Gordon's, on the 1,000 billboards he has between Opelousas and Morgan City?
 
I would be willing to bet some of the NIL deals are structured around availibility at a geographic locale over a protracted timeperiod... basically to earn the deal you have to stay put.
And possibly have his contract structured so that he'll have to play in the team's bowl game the same year he declares for the NFL draft. Or else forfeit some of that NIL cash.
 
LSU CB Dwight McGlothern the latest from LSU to enter the portal. This may be some kind of record.
 
McGlothern now in the portal. It sucks that the LSU community didn’t figure out NIL before this.
