Arrr mateys, LSU Tigers captain Brian Kelly be suggesting a cap on plunder in college football to tame the bounty of NIL and other treacherous waters. Aye, a brave idea indeed, but will it keep our ship afloat or send us to Davy Jones' locker? Only time will tell!
Arr matey! The LSU Tigers head coach, Brian Kelly, be talkin' 'bout havin' a salary cap in college football as them name, image and likeness deals and the transfer portal be takin' over like a mighty storm on the high seas. Kelly shared his thoughts on "The Dan Le Batard Show.""Arr, if we had a salary cap, I'd be fine with it, but there be no cap in sight," Kelly said. "It be a real issue, matey. If we all be playin' by the same rules, at least we'd know where we stand."Look at them parallels, matey! Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers, they all be searchin' for that rookie signing bonus. We be recruitin' high school seniors for that freshman bonus. The transfer portal be like free agency, and our own crew be wantin' retention bonuses.But alas, without a cap, the waters be rough. Kelly be warnin' of the "wild west" of NIL, fearin' it could turn into "pay for play."LSU be sailin' high in recruiting rankings, but Kelly be soundin' the alarm bell. Ye never know what treasures or troubles lie ahead in this new era of college football. Argh!Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
