It's like y'all don't even understand the market lol.


Of the 20 coaches making over $8mil a year, Drinkwitz is one of the few actually earning his pay by winning 10 games a year at freaking Missouri.

They'll probably will be 30 coaches next year that will make that amount, too. The market is fluid. Drinkwitz is not over paid. He is capped at his current school just like Lane Kiffin is. Who makes the same amount and has not won shite, either.

Didn’t call plays at Memphis, auburn, or fl state.
I guess we should hire him based off of one game, which he lost?
How’s his offense this year? It sucks

I was starting to come around to the idea of drink but this offensive performance today smells like shite. I don’t really see him as a guy who will wow mamas and grandmamas in La living rooms either. He just doesn’t really move the needle at any level. He may have already hit his ceiling.

He still had massive input on the offensive designs with norvell and Gus malzahn. Why the hell do you think Bo’s play fell off a cliff after he left ? Bo nix literally credit Dillingham for his development. Whether you like him or not he gets them most out of his Qb’s . Leavett , nix and Jeff fricking sims got better under Dillingham

Dilly must’ve smashed your girl by how much you hate the guy you’ve been spewing nothing but anti dilly takes even in post that don’t have shite to do with him lol

this isn't his best team. Okla is a tough matchup for what they like to do. He needs to make a QB change here

Fair but Even with his best teams he never won a ranked sec match up

Not sure why you’re worried about the pay. Sounds like it’s coming out of your pocket.

If you think Dillingham had anything to do with a Gus Malzahn offense or Norvell offense you clearly have no clue.

Yes he did a good job at Oregon with that offense.
His team last year only beat one team that was ranked at the end of the year and was heavily, heavily reliant on one player.
His offense this year is absolute garbage. That doesn’t get you the LSU job.

Oh I understand it alright. I don’t agree he’s worth it.

I am really surprised you are cool with this guy. Missouri fans are almost ready to see this guy go after such bad qb play. I don’t care if the starter is injured. Give me a qb friendly coach who can overcome a qb injury.

So his team being banged up including multiple starters on the o-line out, his starting qb being out for the year and his stud wr also being banged up hasn’t played a part in their offense being erratic ? Your ignoring clear context to paint a narrative it’s pathetic

So was our team, why did we fire Brian Kelly then?

The extent you will go to to make excuses for that guy is impressive.

If every candidate was judged by the same standards, there would be no candidates. It's weird.


It's not me, it's you.

He’s a solid coach that you wouldn’t have to pay Jack shite and get to spend more on the roster

Drinkwitz is paid 9 million a year as has been pointed out already. He is the 11th highest paid coach in the country, lol. He will want top 5 money and a huge buyout. Think about Ryan Day money without Ryan Day results. That’s Drinkwitz, lol

You cannot be this dumb we are fricking LSU on paper we have more talent to withstand losses to our starters than Arizona fricking state. We had 3 straight top 10 HS classes under Brian Kelly. ASU wasn’t sniffing close to the talent haul we were bringing not did they spend the money we did in the portal.

Dillingham was doing more with less. Kelly was doing less with more be fricking forreal

The 4th and 2 just now where Drink went for it down by 11 with 5:40 left instead of taking the easy 3 was idiotic.
