Don't get me wrong. I'm glad we got Baker, but my goodness, he's coming from Mizzou, I think he probably would have taken some 'regular' money


Did you not read the damn tweet. It literally says the deal at Mizzou would have made him 2 mil. He's getting 2.2 here.

Wot. Mizzou was about to give him 2 mil a year. In order to get the guy you want you typically have to offer more than what he’s currently about to get

It’s not my money so I want them to spend it all. I’m just saying if LSU has endless money like he said then let’s buy better than FCS players from the portal

Leave no doubt about it. Woodward wants to win a football championship with the guy he handpicked in football. Not the previous admin’s guys. He will feel like a failure in his own eyes until he does so.

He will pay whatever it takes to do that.

Mascona just said we may be keeping House because we couldn't come up with money for the buy out.

Kelly immediately goes out and shite cans the entire defensive staff, then hires the highest paid DC in the nation.

Big dick moves right there. Bad look for Moscona.
