No surprises that the recruiting for LSU continues to be great, after a small 2024 class. Who wouldn't want to play for a program with such a high profile nationally, and a GREAT NIL program! Geaux Tigers!
I have a feeling that her parents are pushing her to ask for $1 mill after seeing angel and flauje make millions but the problem is that she doesn’t have the social media presence (or marketing tbh) to be making THAT much money. If you’re asking for a million before you even step on the court you better be a superstar off the court. Otherwise it’s just way too much. I’m glad that LSU took their name out of the running because that does not reflect well on her or her team.
LSU's baseball team got the #1 player in the transfer portal in Paul Skenes a few years ago and he didn't even get close to a million dollars. Around 200k tops. And he was a proven talent at the college level who went on to be the #1 overall MLB pick. A million dollars to a high schooler seems a bit rich, but I don't fault her for trying.
Coach Gary Redus most definitely deserves a lot of credit. He most definitely be on the recruiting trail hard. I'm glad LSU said there is no way we're paying 1 million dollars just for a player to play. My thing is that player going to be able to produce right away and give that team some added value to the team.
@318geauxleaux I have to agree. I'd have loved to have Chavez in this class, but there's no way that you should be paying an incoming freshman, more than your current All SEC upperclassmen. The pickups they've had in Hines, Bourrage, and Johnson MORE THAN makes up for not getting Chavez.
@@michaelpinell1861 Yeah right! She may have said it, but she don't mean it. If she's not concerned with the ranking, then why does she keep going after the top ranked players? She just had the #1 recruiting class last year, my friend. †
@@LadyJhoops that’s what I’m trying to get people to understand but they so die hard fans you don’t really see that this is messing up your future for recruiting, once they see one player do it then everyone that think they are the next best thing is going ask for the same thing if not more.
Lol directly short comments about HVL , I hate she came to my team 😂 . Poa should've been there a lot more than what they were allowing based on previous play from Lith but she played bad for LSU . It was literally frustrating 😭 . Her and Poa are both under 6" but they still could've got more out of Poa . I can't wait to see Fla and Mikaylah this season with their new guards , it might be a vibe fr fr .
HVL didn't play for Mulkey out of high school because of her system..HVL went there listening to pro scouts who said she needs some PG run. HVL was terrible at the point I would have went with Makelia
I'm with you Quita, I think it's strange to demand that much money when you haven't played a single College game. Atleast with Flau'jae & Angel they were able to bring a Championship to LSU... in any case I think Texas will be the one's to Pay, they've got a big NIL thing going on, especially the Football team. I think Vic Schaefer will do whatever it takes to keep Chavez home.
As a Texas fan, I think many are being too presumptive about Chavez since the $1M NIL request came out. I view it as just that - a request. Teams can negotiate from there. I do hope Texas gets her but not at the risk of getting other recruits. Texas Tech recently gave $1M deal to softball sensation Canady and Chavez’ was very high on her recent OU visit so it’s not a given that Texas gets her. Vic Schaefer will be smart, and while he wants her, he doesn’t have to have her. Rori received a medical waiver for next year and may return. Booker will be back. Texas has a Top 5 freshman class this year including guards Jordan Lee and Bryanna Preston and already has the commitment of guard Aaliyah Crump #5 player in next year’s class.
I appreciated the need for NIL after I watched The Program. It’s a very gritty movie about college football that shows you the raw side of it. I’ll never forget the scene where players were given envelopes of money from boosters just like a drug deal. That was normal before NIL. I still can’t believe the movie was that honest. College sports was never innocent even if we like to believe it is. Nothing is perfect but I think NIL is the best idea for now.
That’s crazy she asking for 1000000. She’s going to find herself with no offers… I would think she would prove herself for her freshman year then ask for that sophomore year
That’s amazing for them considering the lack of recruiting last season for this upcoming season hints why the hit the transfer portal so hard once again. I’m more interested if LSU can keep a recruiting class considering a lot of the highly touted class entered the transfer portal at the end of last season. It explains why they are going so hard in this recruiting class
@@briangarcia2534 can it be argued that there were some overrated recruits in that class? Or not a good fit for Kim? Kim demands her players to practice hard or they won't see the floor come game day.
Which college has the largest endowment fund? In 2023, endowments distributed 4.7% of their funds, which paid for priorities such as research, salaries, and student financial aid. Harvard University: $53.1 Billion. ... University of Texas: $44.9 Billion. ... Yale University: $40.7 Billion. ... Stanford University: $36.4 Billion. ... Princeton University: $33.4 Billion.
sucks for the state of Kentucky. If at team was smart, they would snatch up Gary Redus the recruiting guru for lsu, team like Missouri could use any talent.
I think Aaliyah Chavez is being failed by the adults surrounding her. She’s going to receive the backlash and suffer the consequences, but I think it’s more indicative of her parents and mentors character than her own.
@ we don’t know that. She’s a child. It is the responsibility of the adults around her to give her the proper guidance. If she doesn’t really care about basketball then I hope she finds something she loves, and if she is motivated by basketball then I hope she develops into a person who is able to make good decisions.
@@michaelpinell1861 the SI article just said that “her camp” requested $1 mil. That does not mean that basketball isn’t her motivation. Besides, if we are talking about a career, money has to be a part of it. That’s why WNBA players want more money, that’s why NIL is even a thing, that’s why all players want to go to the best programs. I just feel sorry for this kid who is not developed enough to fully understand the consequences of what’s being asked for on her behalf.
Yall made a big deal about Morrow and Hailey. WILLIAMS!Talked about how they would be hard to beat but it didn't pan out.🤷♀️ Now here you go again. These players care about that bag instead of developing their game. Maybe Simone will make a difference.
It is a bit odd to ask colleges for a million before stepping on the court to showcase your talent and abilities. It was truly strange for a high schooler.
@roee78 her mom made that demand and LSU quickly backed away. It is clear that basketball isn't the motivation and who wants that? My guess is she'll quickly fade into the background as a bust.
I just want to say this…why does LSU have so many guards while their post is weak in my opinion!!! They’ve recruited 3 guards and I just don’t see them getting about playing time and do you honestly they will stick with the team in the long run!!! LSU basically replaced the guards they lost!!! As for Chavez getting 1mil NIL deal I just don’t see that happening!!!
If Flau’jae leaves after this year, the only lock for next year will be Mikaylah. And, just like we saw this week, Kim may play her at the 4, so I think this is okay. But we do need to land a post player this year or in the portal for sure.
@@Swagu-02 they don’t need guards because they are extremely guard heavy including the wings they have!!! But honestly can you name how many post players they have compared to guards??? At least SC is evenly distributed for the most part!!!
To answer your question, I don’t know if the word is ‘weird’, but it does leave a bad taste in your mouth… like, “I don’t know what it is, but something doesn’t feel right…”
LSU open the door for players to ask for money to come there. You don’t really hear about other teams having players ask for money to come play for them so players not even going there for the program they just want the money but I don’t see no players really staying there for 4 years so it’s crazy for them.
@jfrank6976 How did LSU open that door? Angel's personality and Flau'jae personality earned those dollars. I'm confused on that because who have you heard of LSU paying that kind of money?
@@jfrank6976 I don’t think they open the door but I can see one of the guards entering the portal. Hopefully not Jada Richard’s cause I think she from there.

@@rover7139 Girls transfer out of every program. This is the day of NIL and transfer portal.
