Lane Kiffin (HC LSU)

Thump, he's probably got his own line of spray-on. This one season wonder thing, if he doesn't get it done in year one, his contract probably has a high buy-out, and losing a football game or more is NOT reason enough to fire him, unless LSU is willing to fund the buy-out. But hey, they've already got Oberon (sp?) as an assistant, so would be a smooth transition for him back into his original office in LSU stadium...cogitate on that a bit.

2027 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

calibuck
Totally agree. If he leaves simply for more money, was never ours to begin with. And further, with what LJSr has stacked up on DL, even though he is a talent, tOSU might balk at meeting Miami and Tennessee offers. Hopefully this young man believes what he has been saying, that LJSr is the best DL coach in the business, and he wants to learn at his feet. That would be refreshing to hear.

Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

Jaxbuck
This sounds familiar

As the college sports structure evolves, it might even be beneficial for some schools if they could simply let investors fund the roster, pay the coaches and take on the profit/loss risk. In exchange, the school would get paid for use of facilities and trademarks to fund their other sports.

and yes, already happening to a degree

In a sense, it's already in motion. Utah finalized a nine-figure deal with Otro Capital earlier this year, forming a new company that will handle revenue-generating aspects of the athletic program. Michigan State just unveiled a new athletic department structure with $100 million in seed money, part of which is a for-profit subsidiary called Spartan Media Ventures where investors will get a return.

In early August, LSU is gathering donors at the governors' mansion for a "first look at an alternative revenue-generating opportunity for LSU athletics that is first of its kind nationally and could quite possibly change the future of college sports in America," according to the invitation. It's expected to include some type of structure where investors/donors could buy a "share" of a privatized athletic department.
