3. Bret Bielema, Arkansas $5,158,863

This was noted on the SECR that he's only at like $3.5MM. Some of this is Wisc pay.

Why would Wisconsin still be paying Bielema? He left, he wasn't fired.

He owed Wisconsin. Arkansas put up the money to buyout the contract. Same deal with Jones at Tenn.

What are you using to rank the football program?

So, all those people saying that for the money Miles is making he better win SEC and Natty championships much more often were pretty much just talking out their arse? Or are they pissed at that whole list?

I want this thread to be filled with people who have paid $0 in tuition in their lives and DEMAND that LSU provide them a better football coach.

2,3,4,8, and 9 are a surprise to me. I expected all to be lower.

This. CLM should be higher. I know that makes rantards heads explode, but given the field, it's absolutely true.

That is the worst return on investment in the history of calculating ROI.

LSU has only finished a season ranked in the top 5 one time in the last five years, and that was in 2011.

AP Poll Final Rank
2008- not ranked
2009- 17
2010- 8
2011- 2
2012- 14

USA Today Coaches Poll Final Rank
2008- not ranked
2009- 17
2010- 8
2011- 2
2012- 12

I think Les is ranks among the highest paid college football coaches about where we do as a program.

Wasn't long ago when he was a hot commodity and everyone was talking about him. His name was mentioned plenty when we were looking to replace Saban. They sure do suck these days.

Are people really making fun of Arkansas and Tennessee for paying first year coaches that are rebuilding programs? Some of you really have no sense of circumstances. Hell, Saban went 7-6 his first year at Bama. Turning around a program doesn't happen overnight.
