3 mil for that guy seems cheap.
3 million to someone who doesn’t return a profit more often than not
Not my money so glad we are paying him to keep him but it’s crazy a college baseball coach will make 3 million when his program will lose 1 million a year on average

Well deserved. Man I am glad he is our Coach.

Worth it for the future Nick Saban of college baseball.

Good. Now that poster that made 5 different posts about this topic over the summer can find something else to bitch about.

It lost $2 million in 2023-2024. The Omaha run and title will probably bring that make up closer to even this year, but with the coaching salaries and expenses it's pretty much running underwater every year

He’s not done either. I think he wants to be the best ever. Or in the conversation.

Found one. Let me guess you think the P and L LSU puts out on sports revenue is accurate?
LSU baseball does just fine.

CJJ is the quintessential great coach. He’s brilliant at every facet of the game, plus coaching dynamics and hard working. Well deserved.

In 2024, Jay Johnson's squad didn't get that close as LSU baseball saw a deficit of nearly $2 million.

It’s not about returns. The people who pay him want to win and don’t care about getting anything back other than championships.

Congratulations Coach Johnson
Works hard, knows the game, knows the people, earned.
