I remember when you were saying this woman was going to be winning championships on the reg, and LSU would be happily paying her $1 million per year by now.


No, actually you don't. Nice try.



From April 2011, right after Caldwell was hired, you said:

All the while, Nikki will be collecting her check and the team will be winning championships...............and sadly,when it's all said and done, you'll seem just like that guy in the video above.

So again, why not just enjoy the fact that the team has a great coach and that, more than likely this will equal a much better program and even more visibility for the university?......................................or maybe you think that that's a bad thing.


Either way, welcome to your new reality.
This is what $700K gets ya!

We could pay Nikki $1million/year (which we probably will within the next five years) and still have more than enough money to pay for cleanup.

She won initially with Vans players and her inconsistent personnel decisions and re ruitment of head cases cost her dearly. WBB is not a sport like the mens, most teams have equal talent with a few getting the exceptional talent. Coaching matters. She needs to go. There is no excuse for the teams she has put out the last two years.

Wait a second......................did you really go back FOUR AND A HALF YEARS and fish for a comment about the women's basketball program?

First of all, post the link to the entire thread when you do that. Otherwise there's no validity nor any context. Secondly, if I said they'd be winning championships...........which at the time it appeared that's where we were headed..........what exactly is the point of bringing up that post? And yes, she was STILL worth the $700k/year that she was paid. At the time that was the market and that's what we needed to pay. The fact that it appears it isn't working out, is irrelevant.............unless you're one of those folks who think you can get a championship level coach for $300K/year (you can't).

Some of you guys on this board really entertain me at times.
