I have no idea why LSU gave a retread of a coach the money they did. He’s mediocre. Always has been. There’s nothing special about LSU that will elevate him to more than what he’s shown.

Clearly Landry panicked with the Kelly buyout and made one mistake even worse with the $$$ spent

LSU has been favored every game..every game. And is 6-4.

BOS please restructure the contract!! Him and Kelly have robbed LSU!!


LSU paid exactly what they wanted to. The expense is solely on them. The fact that they are stupid enough to offer such money guaranteed is an indictment of their judgement.

Why did we hire him again?


Big name. The people that approve hires here aren’t sports guys. When’s the last time LSU had a true search with multiple candidates in any sport?

Outside of Jay Johnson I can’t think of any

We made him the 2nd highest paid coach because of what we think our return on investment will be in the long run, not the short run. And that is based on what he has demonstrated what he can do with a program over a period of time.
Sure, but you cannot go into a program and bomb as spectacularly as he has and expect zero repercussions.

The losses this season aren’t just some “damn, we lost” type games.

They are brutally frustrating because of poor decision making, play calling, lack of effort, lack of discipline, etc.

It is one thing to come into a program as an unknown and fail initially.

It is a whole different beast to come into a program and fail so spectacularly that it is going to hurt recruiting, booster involvement, and fan support.

Kiffin managed the latter in under 1 year.
