The question is simple. Is what Coach O is putting on the field worth $8,687,500 a year?

Nick Saban is directly above him at $9,100,000 and Dabo Sweeney is directly below him at $8,258,575. Is LSU getting its money’s worth?

Ryan Day is a bargain by comparison.

You could take away $8,687,000 of that figure and what LSU is putting on the field wouldn’t be worth the remaining $500 a year

Louisiana is ranked 2nd as the poorest state in Louisiana with 19% of it's population living in poverty.

I know the people don't pay his salary, but at nearly 9M a year it's def a slap in the face to the people of Louisiana.

He should have been fired after the game ended last night.

Woodward doesn’t give a shite about the money. It’s not his money and he doesn’t care if he makes people pony up for his mistakes. It’s the same thing he did at A&M with the Jimbo contract. He didn’t care and forced the boards hands. If they don’t agree to it, they are to blame for the team not improving and missing out on a top tier coach.

I don't see Orgeron leaving LSU for any multi-million dollar job.

The question is rhetorical I assume.



From an X's and O's perspective, Eddie could not find his arse if he were using both hands.

So pissed...

Isn't he a state employee paid by state taxes (plus TAF contributions)?

Wait. We're paying Ed Orgeron $8.6M a year? Does anybody even approve these contracts at LSU? Man this university is full of idiots.

We have backed the Brinks truck to the wrong coaches house twice, we should have backed it up to Saban's house when Miami came calling. I hate the little prick, but damn he wins at college football.

Woodward is a bust at this point, imo.

Our biggest sport and he throws the bank at a position coach?
