Former LSU Head Coach Brian Kelly left an interesting tidbit in his conversation with Sirius XM’s “Dusty and Danny” show this morning.
Brian Kelly just told us on @SXMCollege that Lane Kiffin’s current roster at LSU is over $40 million 👀

With conversations around college football rosters reaching the $40M mark, Kelly left no doubt that Lane Kiffin and LSU have surpassed that mark.
Social media wasn’t shocked that the Tigers are all-in on Kiffin’s first season.
I’m old enough to remember when some people made fun of Ohio State for having a *$20 million* roster. https://t.co/x8aUT1gRXb

That can’t be. FSU’s athletic Director thinks there’s a $20.5 million cap.

With NIL continuing to skyrocket, expect other Power 4 teams to join the $40M club soon.
