LSU, WTF is this?

LSU set to completely vaporize the current college athletics economy and rebuild it in the image of a hedge fund with a TikTok account.
Sorry, there's a paywall. Here's one post from the thread..
"Man… as an LSU fan, I can’t even lie — that whole thread just fired me up.
You’re telling me the same global banking monsters that move $6 trillion a day are looking into the LSU business model?? And UBS of all places is interested?? That’s next level.
I came in here for football talk and left needing a finance degree and a Tiger tailgate at Davos.
But real talk — that’s wild. If fractional reserve banking is footing the bill for world development, and LSU is getting a seat at that table through your model, then this isn’t just a win for the school… this is a potential game changer for how athletics and education intersect with global finance.
And let’s be honest — with that kind of financial backing, LSU isn’t just going to compete… we’re about to become thedominant force in college football. NIL? Facilities? Recruiting? Development? Nobody’s gonna be able to match what we’re building.
This ain’t just Geaux Tigers — this is Geaux Global. Let’s ride"

I still have no idea what this thread is saying even after the update.
In the screenshots it says something about LSU getting $500 mil from some ethereal global bank for NIL projects and stuff, but why? What is the "LSU business model" supposed to be? It all reads like a crock of bullshite

“UBS is reportedly gearing up to bankroll the most outrageous NIL facility ever conceived for LSU, with funding rumored to range from a casual $500 million to a completely unhinged $1.2 billion. This isn’t just some booster fund or glorified endorsement piggy bank—this is a full-blown, non-recourse, sovereign-backed financial behemoth designed to turn LSU athletes into branded micro-empires. Word is, the money will be deployed through a Cayman-based NIL megastructure that uses synthetic securitization, future-forward arbitrage swaps, and at least three acronyms nobody actually understands. Non-recourse means the athletes and LSU could blow it all on gold-plated G-Wagons and Wagyu vending machines, and UBS wouldn’t legally be allowed to care.
Insiders claim that this whole scheme is backed by a shadowy cabal of global finance titans. BlackRock allegedly blessed the model during a midnight Zoom summit, SoftBank chimed in from a yacht, and the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority sent a courier hawk with a thumbs-up scroll. Multiple unnamed Scandinavian pension funds are said to be involved, mostly because they’re bored and this “felt spicy.” Even the Vatican’s private endowment allegedly asked for an Excel model. This isn’t just a financial product—it’s an international movement wrapped in Gucci, fueled by crypto, and run by former Goldman interns with burner phones.
The facility will reportedly allow LSU athletes to license their NIL rights using multi-jurisdictional royalty trusts, with optional upside via metaverse tie-ins and quantum-computed image rights. One early proposal includes turning players into NFT-backed IP clusters, then fractionalizing their celebration dances into derivatives. Some LSU boosters are already referring to this as “The NIL Vatican,” while others prefer “The House That Gave Joe Burrow a Yacht.” Either way, it’s set to completely vaporize the current college athletics economy and rebuild it in the image of a hedge fund with a TikTok account.”

Lol…so this new business model being dreamed up, is by the same people that have the poorest endowment and provide the least amount of support for their school in the SEC and robbed a children’s hospital to pay players? Even James Carville, famous LSU alum and prominent Democrat, can’t find enough of other people’s money to spend to make that work. ?????? awesome..

I think some of you have serious levels of autism. Hope RFK finds the source of the problem

Someone should tell Our Lady of The Lake Hospital because they keep throwing insane amounts of money at LSU. It’s crazy how they just keep giving after being taken advantage of.

And you believe this?

The idea that outside investors would choose to park money in the most corrupt and least business friendly state in the country rather than employ the same model elsewhere is laughable.

Well cfb as a whole right now is currently a crock of bullshite so we are just adapting really.
My real opinion is this whole thread is a troll.

Nah, NCAA athletics are small potatoes compared to the NFL, NBA, and EPL. They're also declining markets thanks to out of control NIL & the continuous growth of entertainment alternatives.

LOL, I always see responses about how stupid some people are on this board. Those are usually drunk type posts or insult driven. Then there are these, that go way beyond stupid or idiotic. People that post ridiculous shite yet play them off as though they know WTF they are talking about. These are a lot worse IMO.
