QB Zeon Chriss Commits to Louisiana

[JMV JustMyView]

Billy said something a few weeks ago that stays with me. He said some parents worry about their kids not having as much as their parents wish they could provide. He worries about his kids having too much. Guess he wants them to realize the benefit of having to work for something. That tells me he is a different type guy and money may not mean as much to him as it may to someone else. Of course you can live real comfortably in Lafayette, Louisiana on 2 million per year.

Yep and you can also learn to love another place for 5+ million.

….Caught that quote as well……I also remember about too many QBs and some not getting reps….the drills I saw were just machine gun reps for ALL….not in a scrimmage situation but they all stayed busy!_

I think you’re missing the message.

More money isn’t the motivating factor for Napier, according to this post. If his family already has everything they need and he doesn’t want to spoil them further, $3M extra per year isn’t the main pitch that will pull him from here (again, according to the post).

If he was about the $, he would have left already. It's never going to be about just $ for this man to leave.

Didn't miss the message but going from 2 million to 5+ million is a huge difference even if you have everything you want or need. You can really start banking for your future especially if you go somewhere and it doesn't work out you have a better nest. Money isn't everything for Napier but you still need it. I am thinking his kids future would be set up also. Eg college funds, etc.

"UL sees me winning a lot of championships and games for them. Last year, UL was ranked No. 15 in the country. Maybe we'll have a chance to be No. 10 or higher in the future."

For a guy who has been here since 1976, I never thought I'd see the day where someone would say this and be serious.. and it would be achievable....

Napier needs a raise... another one

And yes my RCAF contribution has gone up

Not only this, but its coming from a star player from B.R. that says a lot about our growth.

He is making 2 million a year at 41 years old, if he doesn’t already have college covered, making 5 million a year won’t matter.

I was thinking the same thing. Parents making far less than he has ever made find ways to take care of their kids’ education.

He is univ employee his kids would go for practically nothing.

Zeon Chriss didn’t want to wait.

Coming off a state championship winning-season and ranked as the second highest quarterback prospect in Louisiana, the Madison Prep multi-sport star committed this week to play for the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns.
