USA news is saying it out loud, do coaches like Kiffin want to coach at a place where the governor interfering is a possibility.

I had heard Woodward refused to allow Wade to come back. I wish Landry had gone public last spring and gotten Wade back for us.

Why did he have to go? Because he hired the most winning college football coach in history and it didn’t work out?


No, because the contract he gave him was asinine, just like with Fisher.

Honestly, IDC what the billionaires pay the next guy. I could care less if they pay Kiffin $20 mill a season, it’s not my money.



It is when ticket prices are raised, parking and concessions raised. LSU gear prices go up.

By proxy, it is your money.

Dont know anything other than what I've read, but it seems like Woodward put all his faith on the BK hire. It failed, so he's gone. Simple as that.

Damn, not sure he deserved to be fired... especially if a private donor is picking up most of the buyout...

Landry didn't even know how the buyout worked.

EXACTLY! These same idiots also support all the "free" government handouts and then complain when food and energy prices go up from inflation. Everything is great as long you aren't paying for it. Well guess what morons, YOU ARE!

I imagine the school pres and board of supervisors signed off on a $100m contract! And if not Kelly in ‘21, who else? Sark went to Texas and Riley to USC

If it the contract is raised by private money, this doesn’t play the same. The big boys will always sign off on their money being spent. Just like BK would not have been fired, if it wasn’t covered by the boosters.

We could either have a great resurgence in our 2 biggest sports and Landry could be seen as a genius in a few years or this could be the greatest collapse in our athletic program’s history.

Crazy times at LSU.

I sure hope whoever replaces him makes sure Jay Johnson is happy and STAYS happy for as long as possible.

Scott made a bad decision on Kelly but got us Jay and Kim..

Another note Jeff Landry need to be more worried about rising insurance prices than sticking his nose in sports!
