Questionable Mushrooms found in SE Louisiana

Habitat: Hi, I first began mushroom hunting this previous summer in my family's cow pasture in SE Louisiana. I've had much success finding P. cubensis, but recently they have become scarce if not completely absent. However, I've been finding a separate species that I'm curious about. I'm not very confident that they are psychedelic but I figure it'd be worth a shot to try and see if I've found something useful. After searching the sun exposed fields (and finding two cubes along the way) I moved to an area shaded by large trees. There was a considerable amount of dung in this area, and plenty of mushrooms growing in and around the poop.
Gills: The color of the gills was a stark white (see pictures for reference) especially compared to the cubes. Gills attachment appears to be emarginate.
Stem: White to light brown (possibly from bruising...), not particularly firm, "squishy", hollow, thin/thick.
Cap: The color was a similar white with intermittent brown spots that could almost be wiped away with a brush of the fingure. The cap does not curve in but rather is slightly depressed with the edges rising above.
Spore print color: I wanted to ID these as quickly as possible, and I'm currently waiting for the print. Hopefully some slack will be cut/there is already enough information.
Bruising: Slight. Light brown.
Other information: The mushrooms smell similar to the cubes.
Here are some pictures:

The first four are the shrooms in question, the fifth is a picture of two cubes picked in the same area.
Thank you very much for any responses.

The mushrooms on the left are Chlorophyllum species, If spore print is green it is Chlorophyllum molybdites.
-------------------- Favorite quote: I want to know if they are active and magic or not. And if they are not active, can i pick them before they are active and then they will become active or do they have to grow till they activate?
