we cannot afford his buyout and its stupid to say so


Please elaborate

Are you CFO of LSU athletics? Are you privy to information around LSU football revenues that the rest of are not?

SW has let the basketball team just completely implode because McMahon was his pick. He's going to do the same with BK. SW isn't firing BK this year.



Are you seriously comparing the basketball program to the football program and thinking that is a 1:1 comparison?

We have some thick people here who don’t understand this. They think the LSU big players will just accept a 7-5 record after a $20 million investment laying down.

Nobody on this board KNOWS what LSU has and doesn’t have in order to buy out any coach.Only the powers that be AD,BOS,BIG BOOSTERS,know what’s going on.All this speculation by us fans IS BS and dreams.Let things play out and get a grip.

Not that its a 1:1 comparison but I believe SW is hardheaded when it comes to his decisions and sticking by them, even when the evidence suggests otherwise and is staring him right in the face. For the record, I'd love a new coach, just don't think its happening this year.

Have to imagine he could find a 2-3 million per year gig somewhere


He could, but doesn't necessarily have to. He just has to make a good-faith effort to find such employment. He could work as an "analyst" (NCAA or NFL) for $200k. Or in another AD for a less than $1M salary knowing LSU still has to pay him (minus the offset)

The benefit of taking the money up front, even a lesser amount, it to get it all now rather than spreading out the payments. Regardless, LSU doesn't have much leverage to "cheaply" fire BK right now.

Do you know SW? I can’t imagine saying this about someone I don’t know.

His decisions so far as AD of LSU do not make me think this of him.

I don't see how he doesn't get fired, if we finish 7-5 or 6-6 which both are very possible.

Because I'm not rooting for him or the team to fail?

If LSU goes 7-5, which is very possible if they lose this weekend, then BK is getting fired

after he gets his bonus for his sixth win, if true, Woody’s an even bigger maroon than we thought

BK is terrible hiring OC's and DC's. He can't ever have good ones on both sides of the team. Davis needs to be the first one fired.

This is true, but if you offer him say ~35 mill and waive the offset language, he could double dip and make more than he would otherwise. There is definitely a mutually beneficial agreement to be made here

Nothing is saying he gets to make the next hire. Blake Baker wasnt his call - it was the admin. They might do the same thing for an OC, especially if he wants to hire Tommy Rees.
