Wilson Alexander of The Advocate reports that LSU and new offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr. have reached an amended three-year, $7.5M deal this week after Ole Miss was exploring interest in keeping him in Oxford.

The 32-year-old coach had been Lane Kiffin's OC at Ole Miss since 2022. Before that, Weis Jr. was the OC & QB coach at South Florida from 2020-2021, and held the same role at Florida Atlantic under Kiffin from 2019-2019.

Weis Jr. returned to Oxford last week to coach the Ole Miss offense in the playoffs.

Ole Miss will play Tulane in the first round of the playoffs on Dec. 20.

Yeah, exactly why LSU should not have let those assistants go back for the playoff game.

See that season ticket waiting list? There is belief again and optimism from the fanbase. LSU is going to be printing money with the Lane train.

Now Weiss can focus on poaching all of Ole Miss's best players.

32 years old making 2.5m a year to be an OC for one of the biggest college football teams. 32 years old. That's wild.

He almost makes as much as some of his 18 year old players

Dan Lanning was 32 when made DC at Georgia. Don’t forget Lane was only 31 when he was hired as head coach for the Oakland Raiders. That’s even more wild. 31 as a NFL head coach…insane. Lane was fed to the wolves. Too much, too quick.

I thought Lane ran the offense. Why pay that much for an OC?

Did OM not already hire an OC? If so, what leverage did Weis Jr. have in bringing this to LSU to bend the knee.

Also, who is paying for the LSU coaches on loaner to OM? We (LSU) is throwing allot of cash around lately. Particularly with no increase in ticket sales that balance sheet must be on fire by now.

Always the highest paid OC? Well LSU should always have the #1 off in the sec then.

This is why I was glad Ole Miss didn't allow Kiffin to continue to coach in the playoffs. We would have been left at the alter with no plan B,C, or D. I knew this crap would happen. Now, not only are they helping Ole Miss, they aren't doing work for LSU right now. Look for one or two to change their minds and stay at Ole Miss.

an annual look in to make sure he’s the highest paid OC in the SEC? gross. he was dog crap without Lane running the show. had one of the worst offenses in his conference when he left Lane from FAU. we shouldn’t have him at all and now we’re doubling down? Let him go to Ole Miss

LSU co tongues to play itself when it comes to contracts. This one is almost like Miles to Arkansas.
