This!
Doesn't Will Wade have a 5-million-dollar Buyout? He makes around 3 million currently. So, we would have to pay 5 million just to buy him out, and then in the neighborhood of a 3.5-million-dollar contract. I just don't get it.

everyone can pay players now. Not like he did illegally. There's nothing showing he can even coach, at NC State sure isn't helping that argument.


McHow is this working out for our current coach?

5 million until April, then it’s 3 million. His current salary is 2.5 million. Next years salary will be closer to 2.7 million. I would expect the next coach at LSU’s salary to be 2.5-3 million range unless it’s a well established head coach.

Yes. He would be owed 80% of his remaining salary. Paid out over the course of the remaining years of his contract. About 7.5 million

Then that means LSU would have the lowest paid HC in the conference and probably be looking at the second tier of mid-major HCs candidates. I think you are going to see the new HC's salary be at least in the $3.5 - $4.0 range.

As usual you miss the point. Even if they have that over LSU in basketball which is questionable, they aren't going to be able to compete at the highest level like LSU for much longer.

The TV contracts all expire around 2030. The wolfpack ain't gonna have a chair at the big boy's table when the dust settles.

You read about the $20.5 million each school distributes to athletes through profit share. That isn't monopoly money, it's real. It's also going to rise each year by a few million.

Schools like NC state and Syracluse won't necessarily be able to keep up with that yearly raise, and they'll be left behind.

LSU has ZERO chance of being left behind. Is it out of the realm of possibility that a coach may be looking for a soft landing with people he's familiar with as opposed to taking his chances in a shaky situation. Especially one he's had ZERO TIES to before this year??

Things aren't always spelled out in black and white.

Damn I wanna frame this response and hang it on my wall. Hits all the high notes of td.con retardation. Angry for no reason, baseless claims about rumors being true, whole words capitalized for no reason. Damn you even somehow managed to own the libs while doing it. Bravo!

The amount of people who believe this shite is honestly mind blowing to me

wtf does this even mean? Quite literally everything that sells something is a ‘business’ in an industry

quote:

“Will Wade will come back” was his last sentence to our basketball discussion


Let’s think about this for a second… let’s set the scene… you were at some sort of sit down business dinner, all sitting around a table discussing LSU shite with potentially some inside info… your Italian mob boss friend dropped the line ‘will wade will come back’ and everyone just sat there and let the convo end? There was no follow up? No curious questions after that???




I call 1000% bullshite
You’re trolling everyone


And the idiots who want to believe it will lap it up without any sort of critical thinking


This place sucks sometimes, because of teenage idiots like yourself

I don't see him coming back to LSU. It depends how big NIL account is will determine next coach.
