I am hearing Mel Tucker will not be considered for the lsu job, One of the main factors is that he has a very large buyout.

I agree he shouldn’t be considered but the buyout won’t be why. We’d pay any amount for a guy like Fickell or Reilly

I think Tucker's name will cool down once they start losing games

So LSU pays O his full buyout. We pay the WBB coach over $2M per year and all of a sudden money is an issue? I mean, agree it should make sense financially but I doubt his $19M buyout eliminates him if he is who they really want... but it's not my money so they aren't gonna ask me

I hope you are right but looking at what I found online his buyout doesn't look too bad

Michigan State signed Tucker to a six-year contract with a $5.5 million annual salary. The buyout for taking another job in college or the NFL was $6 million if he left by Jan. 15, 2021, but dropped to $2.5 million for leaving between Jan. 16, 2021 and Jan. 15, 2022. It declines by $500,000 in subsequent years.

With the exception of this season, he has only had one other winning season as head coach.

I have no opinion about Tucker personally, but I hope buyouts arent an issue. I hope the attitude is "go get your guy no matter what".

MSU has made big financial commitments to the football program. They have a new football facility being planned. They have given Tucker everything he has asked for to this point. I just don’t see the guy moving his family 3 times in 3 years. I could be wrong.

The main factor should be that his career coaching record is 14-12 (after starting 7-0 against a glorified HS schedule), and having yet to coach in a bowl game in his career.

He simply is not qualified yet. He needs 3 to 4 more seasons under his belt before he can move up in the ranks.

Main factor is that he's like 14-12 as a HC, isnt he?
