Why would LSU offer him 96 million dollars? Because he has all the leverage

He can not sign a legal contract and also be the Coach of Ole Miss, he is under contract with Sip.

He can if both Ole Miss and LSU allow it, which is the entire scenario being discussed.

It would be a term sheet rather than a full blown contract, but regardless I agree with everyone who has said LSU absolutely has to have something on paper. You can’t sit around and wait another month based on a verbal agreement.

Kiffin accepting a job at LSU yet allowed to finish coaching Ole Miss - positives
A. Experience coaching in the playoffs.
B. Might get lucky and win the damn thing. Now LSU will have a National Champion Coach
C. Players want to go where the coach is a winner.
D. Recruits won’t give a shite they’ll commit to LSU knowing we got someone coming worth shite.
E. Because of the portal, who knows some of the Ole Miss players may decide to transfer to LSU
F. Makes LSU look classy and take the high road after that sloppy BK divorce, and showing mercy to our worst enemy. From my years of experience and wisdom (no comments from the peanut gallery) is that you never know when your enemy might need to be your friend. There’s always the long game.
G. LSU will have BD energy making LSU the Alpha in this situation.

Negatives: none

Kiffin accepting job at LSU but not allowed to continue coaching for Ole Miss - positives.
A. He immediately begins working on our recruiting class.
B. Some rebel players loyal to Kiffin might/ will transfer to LSU
C. Kiffin become resentful of Ole Miss and makes it his immediate mission to beat Ole Miss by 70 points next time.
D. Ole Miss looks like dicks and and takes the low road.
E. LSU looks like the good guy and classy.
F. LSU has BD energy and is the Alpha

Negatives: none

Kiffin stays - positives
A. LSU forced to hire a huge name to keep it all together.
B. As such LSU looks like an Alpha.

Negatives:
A. LSU looks like a bitch and probably takes a hit recruiting and through the portal.
B. We resort to a backup hire that none of us really buy into akin to the Kelly hire.
C. LSU looks like the beta

No, you’re not missing anything. No one in their right mind at LSU would allow this.
