Imagine trying to make Brian Kelly being plan B look like a negative for Woodward.

Also HIGHLY unlikely Kelly was not Woodwards first and only aggressive target, beyond casual inquiries with actual backup plans.

Fake news. He’s not getting $15 mill a year. And he wasn’t getting $2.6 million at ND.

From what I read, he quoted Tomlinson and said, "Never say never but never."

The money is huge but I think he wants to win a Natty before he retires. And he has a better chance to win many at LSU over ND.

We will see once the official details go out. I don't think private universities don't have to disclose details. But LSU is public so must disclose the contract.

SW has a history of being a big game hunter, Chris Peterson to Washington and Jimbo to A&M.

It's a lot of money for sure. I would pay that for Saban to come back to LSU for sure. IF BK brings LSU Natty's year after year, it will be worth it. IMHO.

$75m over 5 years would be obscene.

That number is incorrect.

Dodd is a cuck in case you didn’t already know that.

According to another LSU website, it is supposed to be $15M for 5 years. SW must have been willing to pay that fat check over 5 years unlike the past 10 year contracts. Good move IMHO. I think BK took the 5 year contract because he wants a Natty before he retires and he has a better chance to do that at LSU.

$15 million would be absurd. Can LSU even afford that

If he wins 2 national championships it’s worth it if he shits the bed then they may be in a bind.

That is my thinking also. With the talent available in Louisiana and Texas, BK will build LSU back to the top and if he sustains it, he will get an extension for more Natties.

That is super common in executive contracts, this doesn't surprise me to hit college coaches. Their time is so valuable that the extra expense of a jet is peanuts compared to time lost.

Get ready to be pissed off. Reports are saying 15 million. Wouldn't imagine it being under 12 million. He offered Riley 12 million.
