Burrow saying it was real. https://www.espn.com/college-footba...odell-beckham-jr-handed-real-cash-lsu-players The money that Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. distributed on the field after LSU's national championship victory Monday was real, Tigers quarterback Joe Burrow said in a podcast interview released Wednesday. "I'm not a student-athlete anymore, so I can say yeah," Burrow said on the most recent episode of Barstool Sports' "Pardon My Take."
Of course it was real. Why would you just give fake money to people lmao. No one is that lame, especially not OBJ!
This is going to be an absolute sh&& show. People think, “oh just let them make a little side money from their likeness.” I think a can of worms is about to be opened with far reaching consequences.
Interesting comments from NCAA President Mark Emmert over the weekend saying no sports until campuses are re-opened. That comes after Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby saying on-line classes would be sufficient. Not a fan of either guy so a nice feud would be pretty entertaining.
College football's "risk your life for free" model is the only good casualty of the Pandemic. RIP million dollar salaries for Strength coaches and indoor jetski pools and charter flights for the lacrosse team
Funny how this is the headline but not the fact that the NCAA also uncovered booster payments to a kids father (big shocker). Expecting the NCAA to accept LSU’s self-imposes slap on the wrist. But man you have to be pissed if you are USC. First Auburn and now LSU likely.
