There's no way they pay the full buyout with all the ammunition that O has given them to fire him for cause. Latest rumor is he's sleeping with a student. I'm confident that might be mentioned in his contract somewhere. But that's just the tip of the iceberg.

O is fricking done. I'll eat my hat if he survives.

First of all, it’s not $21 million. It’s about $17m

Secondly, he won’t get $17m…he’ll get less than $10m, and potentially $0 if he doesn’t play nice

Thirdly, his buyout actually wasn’t that bad/insane… 70% on 6million on whatever years left on contract…the problem is no one could have anticipated the demise to happen in Year2 of 6

Coach O is gone…the coaching search has begun

Especially in the case of Ed. He's in his dream job. He'd never leave on his own for something else. And, no one else would hire him away from us. Giving him a huge buyout was not smart..... Not that they are going to pay the full amount, but still.

It will cost LSU more than 21 million in loss revenue if they do keep him.

Absolutely NOBODY was going to hire O at any P5 contender. Not many would have even considered him even at a bottom feeder P5. The PTB that got behind his ridiculous contract should be forced to eat it. You know there's a faction of boosters who used the "he's one of us" lines. They're the ones who should be opening their check books.

You should learn what big money boosters are and how this shite works. It will save you a lot of heartache from worrying about stupid shite.

The SEC is less than two years away from a new TV deal that will double it's current annual take which is already over $35 million per school. Money is no object for LSU or anyone else in the SEC if they feel a change needs to be made. Auburn gave Gus over $20MM to hit the road last year.

You right. One thing I've learned about rich people in Louisiana is that when it comes to spending their money on anything but themselves, they won't do it.
