Bc LSU is still paying Ed O

When O was given his extension the team had improved every year since he started. 2016 was an interim, ended up with 8 wins. 2017 was his first full year, 9 wins. 2018 was a 10 win season and a NY6 bowl win, 2019 was a 15-0 natty. O was making less than $4 million at the time, and after those 3 years of improvement culminating in the greatest season in the sport's history, I'm sorry but that raise was deserved. Woody's not a fortune teller, and giving coaches raises is just as much about showing potential candidates in future coaching searches that winning here comes with monetary rewards. If we stayed cheap with Coach O after 2019 and fought his buyout after being fired, agents are going to tell coaches to be weary of taking a job here.

A&M is stuck with Jimbo bc of woody

If Jimbo was still on his original contract Woody gave him it would have been far more manageable to fire him last year. Woody didn't give him an extension after 0 natties, 0 conference, and 0 division titles in his tenure. That's on them At least O won shite when he got his extension.

Coker and Chizik got raises/extensions after their natties too. Natty winning coaches tend to get those and any agent will use it against you if you're an AD that doesn't do it.
