I said atleast 2 more years. I thought the $50 million had to be paid in full.

As I said many times. We couldn’t afford TO keep him. LSU’s brand is worth well over $50MM and BK was ruining it.

I for sure didn’t think they could. Not really afford it, want to pay it.

I didn't think they would pony it up, but I also said it depended on what the contract language was.

Me, I’ll own it. Never thought we would/could come up with the money. Always thought the season would have to be a disaster; finish with a losing record in conference.
You feel better?

We've read the board the last few weeks and after last night... same know it all's say LSU can't pay, expect 2 more years for buyout.. I called them out many times.

They will now change their narrative.

After the vandy loss, I said there was no way BK was fired this season. Not because of the money. But because I had zero faith in AD/LSU admin.

I am 100% happy that I was wrong.

If LSU can’t come up with $50M…we are still poor.

They can’t, which is what it is still being negotiated.
