Without question! I was born and raised in McComb. I know those bigot-minded mother_uckers all too well. They stand for Old Mississippi times, and that’s why on tigerdroppings and all my other social media accounts I always refer to the institution as Old Mississippi or Old Miss. Ole means Old, so I call em what they are. And talk about some pompous arse, arrogant, condescending folks! What a delusion!!
I grew up in Magnolia. Back in the 70’s we referred to Ole Miss as:
The University of Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College and School of Sheet Metal Work.

re: How many of LSU’s transfer portal entrants will not land a new home?

So you bring up a good point. How do scholarships work now in NIL world? NCAA allows for so many scholarship players and then walk ons. But if everyone is getting paid, isn’t that a scholarship?
I know your question was not directed to me, but this has been discussed amongst the NCAA participating schools and the Feds. If the athletes become employees of the school, many believe the scholarship will go away. However, some schools (TCU comes to mind) have a clause where employees and/or children of employees have free tuition. Some do not. If they do not become employees, then there will likely be "roster limits" and it will be up to each individual school as to whether they offer a scholarship or not.

Curious about the stats on this new world of college football. In particular, are the risks well understood by the players? How much bad info is given to them by their so called agents.
Well, wondering about the LSU players and wondering about the system as a whole are two different things, I would say. As someone above said, if you're good enough to land on the roster at LSU, someone will pick you up.
However, given past results, a quick search shows around 30-35% never find a home. That means, many will leave a perfectly good scholarship for a degree and land out in the cold.
re: LSU baseball is getting screwed in revenue share
Posted by ChiefCornerstone on 1/15/26 at 1:31 pm to N2daWild
It’s hard to describe the look on his face and the tone of his voice when he spoke about revenue sharing and NIL. We were told at that luncheon that money to the Coaches Committee could no longer be used like it used to for the players. Everything had to go through the clearinghouse. Coach J was adamant, he needed the revenue sharing to match that of the Top 5 in the SEC.
When a man repeats himself 8-10X, you better listen. He made it quite clear that things needed to change. We all understood that day that he would likely leave if things didn’t change.

so much ignorance here. Should they have more in the revenue sharing? Yes. But LSU NIL in baseball is at the top of the sport with Marrucci, Nike baseball, Lipsey’s etc.
Wow!! I’ll be sure to tell Coach that the next time he gives me the info I just gave you.

Trust me, LSU baseball is not struggling
I would if you were correct. You’re not. Coach Johnson was NOT happy with the revenue sharing. And, he was not Woodard’s first pick for that matter.
The baseball number started at $250K. That phone call from our favorite AD came while the team was in Omaha. It didn’t sound like the call went very well. When they returned with the trophy, the number went to about $400K.
To be clear, LSU ranks 13th in the SEC in baseball revenue sharing. And that’s the $400K number. Let that sink in for a moment.
LSU Baseball does NOT have the NIL money necessary to compete with the top 5 SEC schools when compared to their revenue sharing.

Chambliss’ agent has been pressuring the hell out of the NCAA for this decision….all over the news in Mississippi threatening financial damages. I don’t think he expected it to go this way!
I thought the NCAA created a separate policy review committee with the major conferences supplying the reviewers to help speed up decisions. It’s in the House settlement IIRC.

Chambliss could follow the lead of Diego Pavia and join Pavia’s lawsuit against the NCAA . Diego Pavia doesn’t believe his juco years should count against years in Div 1. Or Chambliss could file suit against NCAA in Mississippi court for loss of potential income.
Pavia’s suit has already been decided. It’s why he played this year.
Loss of income. You see, this is where I’m confused regarding the participating schools of the NCAA. I’ve read multiple reviews of the Pavia decision. They all say different things except one that continues to surface. What about the HS kids who are coming up?
When it comes to a lot of these decisions, especially when it comes to labor laws, it’s all about “expectation”. This is why most Div. 2 and Div. 3 schools, and NAIA for that matter, aren’t being told to or pressured to have revenue sharing. Students who go there don’t really have the expectation that the school will make money off them. HS 4 and 5 star athletes have the “expectation” they will be recruited and have an income stream at a major Div 1 school. If the law is upheld, then players like Pavia and Chambliss do not have the right to prevent that or get in the way.
So, why aren’t the schools pushing this narrative? None of the reviews I’ve read touch on this. Perhaps the schools know that’s a defense but they’re biding their time for something else. Congress maybe? I hope they’re not holding out hope for a Congressional exemption ala MLB…

Pavia’s argument is that his time at a JUCO should not count toward NCAA eligibility since JUCO’s are not part of the NCAA. that’s why he won, not because of money. Chambliss being D2 was still in the NCAA so he used up all of his eligibility. .
THANK YOU!!! Someone’s paying attention.
I mean, you can’t make this stuff up!! NCAA uses competition years at schools that do NOT participate with the NCAA to limit time at schools that do. Who in Hades came up with that rule?? I swear. Some of these NCAA rules look like all the participating school reps got stoned, wrote the rules and never consulted any attorney.
One of the critiques I read from the Pavia ruling said the unspoken rebuttal the NCAA should have used is the restriction on NIL access for other players if some are allowed to stay for an indefinite amount of time.
Good times.

Look up Scuba. He had a really nice breakdown of the Fall scrimmages. We’ll know more at the first scrimmage who is still around.
As someone else posted, our pitching staff has the look of being as good as last year. That’s the most important.

Barring Congress giving the NCAA and colleges some kind of antitrust exemption, nothing will happen. The NCAA is powerless
Antitrust was the NIL suit. Pavia’s suit was based on the Sherman Act. Ultimately, my bet is on all this going under Labor laws. The NLRB has already filed a complaint against the NCAA participating schools to have athletes declared employees. Heaven help us….

The universities have total control over this mess. They just need to admit that the players are employees. That would fix everything.
Indeed, the National Labor Relations Board filed a complaint in Federal Court against the NCAA (read all participating schools) for the athletes to be declared employees. By the way, that would be a nightmare for the schools. Imagine having to negotiate with EVERY single sports team individually every year for revenue sharing.
In regards to my post above, ultimately Pavia used the Sherman Act to get his, and his only, pass to have his JUCO not counted. The Feds may end up declaring this whole thing (revenue sharing, NIL, all of it), to be a Labor issue. Heaven help us all if that happens…..

The Universities have to come together with a collective bargaining agreement. Force the players to conform and have some solid roster rules.
They have, about 100 years ago. It’s called the NCAA.
Yall have to remember, the NCAA is not a government institution. It’s a “collective” agreement among all participating schools that has certain rules and punishments. It was put in place for a reason. Any decision or action by the NCAA should be seen as an action done collectively by all the participating schools.
Example: the NCAA has always counted JUCO playing time as counting towards the 5 years to play 4. Pavia successfully sued to have his JUCO years erased because JUCO does NOT participate with the NCAA. You read that right. The NCAA was using time played at colleges that don’t participate to count towards a rule meant only for participating schools. You can’t make this crap up.
