What’s the math on that? About $600 if your salary is 100k?

Todd, you need to step up and buy out this useless piece of shite

I pledge to eat Canes EVERY DAY if you do this for us!

Do it! I'll pay a little more for my 3 piece if that's what it takes.

I never knew about him graduating from Georgia. Is that correct?

Anyway, if I had Todd Graves money, I would be all in willing to support the institution. I would build LSU a damn new stadium if they asked.

But this idea of forking over huge sums of money for individuals, whether to buy out a coach or for NIL, screw that.

He shouldn’t. This should be a lesson to LSU that picking a 60 year old coach, and giving them a 10 year contract, is idiotic. There is too much risk that they are just looking for one last payday. Mulkey is the exception to this rule.

While true, the world we live in allows for the mistake to be corrected quickly if people want to pay the money. We shouldn’t have to tank the entire program “as a lesson” to whoever screwed up.

If I had the money I would stay tf away from LSU. Why would I write a check if Scort Woodward is making the deals and giving out stupid money on Jimbo contracts?!

This. Rich people don’t get rich by blowing their money on stupid shite.

LSU made its bed with this massive contract, now it needs to make it work and learn from this moving forward.

He’s from BR, went to UGA undergrad then came back to go to LSU for graduate school. He supports both schools and is absolutely involved with TAF/BT

Todd graduated from UGA. His friend submitted Todd's business plan to a professor at LSU and gave it a low grade.

Rightfully so, a Louisiana fast food chain serving only chicken tenders, fries, toast and cole slaw should not have worked out as well as it did, but he made it happen.

Todd's best business practice is spending money on ways that gets him more money. Cheap napkins and disposable cups/to go boxes, limited menu, efficient kitchens, and advertising like crazy. He already has naming rights to the River Center. What would be the point of buying a stadium?

Not to mention that every local Cane's supports NIL to their local schools in the South. He has a damn Dallas Cowboys x Post Malone themed restaurant.
