The question is simple. Is what Coach O is putting on the field worth $8,687,500 a year?

Nick Saban is directly above him at $9,100,000 and Dabo Sweeney is directly below him at $8,258,575. Is LSU getting its money’s worth?

Ryan Day is a bargain by comparison.

You could take away $8,687,000 of that figure and what LSU is putting on the field wouldn’t be worth the remaining $500 a year

The question is rhetorical I assume.



From an X's and O's perspective, Eddie could not find his arse if he were using both hands.

So pissed...

Wait. We're paying Ed Orgeron $8.6M a year? Does anybody even approve these contracts at LSU? Man this university is full of idiots.

Hell no, he’s only 2nd in salary because of Joe Burrow.

Subtract the buyout. Is the product worth $1 million a year?

I had sex on the Tiger Stadium 50 yd line in 1999. Left my used condom there.

What I put on the field was worth more than what O does.

No, of course LSU isn’t getting anywhere near what it’s paying for, and it hasn’t even come close since his last giant pay increase.

What do you pay your coordinators? Ed deserves $1 more just so head coach makes most.

His entire extension and contract was a mistake.

Orgeron’s new contract began on Jan. 14 2020 and expires Dec. 31, 2025.

Orgeron’s buyout equals out to 70% of the salary remaining on the entire contract. If LSU were to terminate Orgeron’s contract in the first year, his buyout would be about $27 million; in the second year, about $21 million; in the third, $16.8 million; in the fourth, $12.6 million; in the fifth, $8.4 million; and in the final year, $4.2 million.

In total, the contract is worth $41 million before bonuses.


Buyout at end of each season:
End 2021- $16.8 mil
End 2022 - $12.6 mil
End 2023 - $8.4 mil
End 2024 - $4.2 mil
End 2025 - $0

It’s actually an even simpler question than that.

Is what Coach O putting on the field worth my time or money?

Would you feel better if we were spending only $500,000 a year and still sucking?
I really don’t give a frick how much we are spending I just want to see some quality football.
