Is LSU offering Kiffin more than Florida and Ole Miss? Sure. But what’s a million here or there?It is believed that all three programs stand to pay him at least $11 million annually in deals that stretch at least six years. In Baton Rouge, Kiffin’s contract would likely make him, at the very least, tied with the highest-paid coach in the country, Georgia’s Kirby Smart at $13 million. That also includes around a $30 million guarantee for the football roster (revenue-share + NIL).

$30 million to spend on the roster with the talent LSU is able to acquire might be what seals the deal for Lane

I think the reports that’s it’s not about Kiffin’s salary have some legs. If he wants a title that war chest is what’s going to sway him.

All 3 are going to offer the same salary.

Adding on to this, it seems Kiffin's main priority over everything else is the NIL pool (per AYS, but thats been the buzz for a while)

Because it’s been reported for over a month that Ole Miss and UF are at 13.5 million annually.

Wow $30 million for roster...upgrade from this year. How can you turn that down? You are guaranteed top 10 recruiting just with Louisiana kids filling up half you recruiting class.

I really hope the AD has other promising candidates and that they arent focused exclusively on Kiffin. I have zero faith in Kiffin. This all seems like classic gamesmsnship.
