Don't hire a coach out of a job.
Don't hire a coordinator that hasn't proven himself.
Don't hire a coach on the hot seat.

SCALP a head coach with a stout winning record from another school.
Be willing to transform philosophy and clean house.

Have $ for ALL the buyouts (HC, coordinators, etc) on both sides (coming and going).

And boosters need to choke the LSU Board politically and financially.

We never will because of the optics of a state in huge budget crisis doesn’t work out. Sad but that’s how it will be played

How is this optics for you:

Decline in $ from attendance.
Decline in $ from merchandise sales
Losing record.
Forced to pay a buyout we should have never had to pay because of being worried about "optics".

3+12 to get rid of O.
Instead of 10 to keep a good coach.

That excuse worked once. It failed. It can't be allowed to work again.

Oh and I forgot. Paying 900K to bottom barrel teams only to lose.

We can hire “one of us” for a lot less. If he presents a Binder that seals the deal.

They better not raise ticket prices for season ticket holders to pay for their stupidity.

so we still owe Les 10 million

12 million to buy out O

something like another 3 or 4 million to buy out the staff

going to have to pay at least 5 million to buy out any decent coach from his deal

3 or 4 million to put together this new staff and buy them out of their deals

10 million salary for the new coach

So this is like a 35 million dollar ordeal

Yes, brought to you by King and Alleva.

Deals with Les should have never been that good.

Offer to O should have never been made.

Pay for premium coach... save money. And also, make money. We are losing revenue by not making playoffs and bowls. Merchandise and ticket sales down. (lost/will lose way more than $35 million)

But after making the boneheaded decision to hire O:

Deals with O... don't get me started.

$ can make anyone come. Let's stop with that pretense.

Swinney is only 7.5
Jimbo in same range
Peterson
Patterson
Kelly

We can find a coach with a winning record and scalp. Bandaids won't stop the bleeding.

Yes. "we"

We are LSU.

Even if you aren't a booster, if you're an alum who contributes... Don't until they get the message.

If you have season tickets, tailgate and don't attend, or just stay home until they get the message.

Deciders only listen to two things: $ and heat.
If you take away one, and give them the other, we'll get what "we" want.
