WTH? Verge just started as AD. Let’s give him a chance to prove himself before we talk about sending him out to pasture.
Verge is a figure head and there to wine and dine boosters. He’s not making any actual personnel decisions.

Verge is a figurehead, he isn’t doing anything…..
So, like Henry Hub gas?
Why is UREA fertilizer branded New Orleans?

Came across a tweet giving the price of “New Orleans” Urea, I’m not particularly knowledgeable about fertilizer, but I’ve never heard of this.

what are you talking about? we are talking about just this year.
You’re acting like injuries greatly diminished this season, he was abysmal in 2/3 other yrs.
They literally won 3 SEC games this and got crushed at home by South Carolina (pretty sure prior to injuries), not like he was even borderline decent. Had he won 6/7 then maybe I’d buy the injury arguement.

It was a PR stunt by Woody and his mouthpiece that would have people believe Vanderbilt spent millions more than Kansas on last years roster.
Exactly, loser SOUR Scott Woodward was just a giant bag of hot air. A politician in an athletic directors role.

Well this definitely just your opinion but I can play this game. All of his good players were hurt the whole year thus not making the tourney.
He was fricking 17-55 in the sec (8-46 if you take out his best season), spare me the excuses.

Unpopular opinion but actually think Mcmahon is not that bad of a coach but he could never assemble good enough talent in this climate.
He had just as much or more than most of the teams in the sweet 16…..he chose……poorly or just couldn’t coach them up…it wasn’t a money issue.
re: Does LSU use old John M Parker coliseum anymore? Plans for future use?

Didn’t the 13th gate start there or was that in the barns next door? Could swear going to a haunted house there when I was at LSU.

Don’t most airlines hedge their fuel costs?
Apparently most stopped doing that years ago bc they felt it was a waste…….i didn’t know that until recent

And when oil goes back to 65 dollars the higher prices won’t come down with it
$65 isn’t happening anytime soon. Prior to this whole escapade the world was falling behind in finding new economically feasible oil and companies (rightfully so) put capex on the shelf in the favor of stock buybacks and dividends. Unless there is a catastrophic worldwide recession, I think we bounce between $85-100 for awhile. Government not giving companies incentive to drill and make new discoveries is going to be very painful.

What’s the current buyout? What’s the source of funding for that buyout?
Like 7m spread over a number of yrs, can either have someone write a check or it can come from smaller donations/operating cash. I don’t know where yall have gotten the idea a singular entity is there to stroke a check.
quote:
It's not LSU's money. If someone was willing to pay that, they would have by now. buyouts are not paid with public money, even if its self generated.
:dope:
Can’t tell if you’re a troll or just stupid
I don’t know how you fail to understand that LSU’s athletic department is SELF SUSTAINING, yea for big buyouts they solicit donations, but what about donations that come in to TAF from smaller donors? What about the other revenue the athletic department has?
quote:
It's not a business. If it were, he wouldn't have gotten a 7 year deal without benchmarks to measure performance. If it were a business, he'd be fired for cause for not winning enough. But again, that analogy is stupid.
If you don’t think college athletics is big business, you’re too stupid to argue with further.
quote:
This is the dumbest analogy yet... LSU Men's basketball made a profit of $2.5M for the athletic department. There is no financial reason for LSU to fire McMahon. They'd be better off letting his contract expire.
Yikes, wouldn’t want you running any of my businesses.
All good as long as you’re not in the red is a very interesting position….

Another season of McMahon renewals will absolute completely tank.
I’m not sure that’s possible at this point……if you have basketball season tickets at this point you’re not getting rid of them even if the coach was the love child of curly hallman and Matt McMahon.

That doesn't mean they can't get lucky by hitting on the best resume...but I don't think this is the crowd to find that diamond in the rough.
They can’t hire a search firm like everyone else?

So, you think WW has a lower ceiling than MM? Interdasting...
That isn’t what I said….
I think wade has a higher floor, but lower ceiling than other guys we can possibly find.
McMahon is just fecal matter

It's Wade or bust (i.e. McMahon), just due to costs.
That makes negative sense…so either get a long shot with a lower ceiling or keep our shitty current coach?

which "Super Star" is available?
That isn’t my job to know…..Todd Golden wasn’t a “superstar” before Florida scooped him up. I think Wade is fine, but from reading the rant you’d think he’s the basketball version of Saban.

2.5 million can buy how many football players in the transfer portal.
If LSU brings in $10m more in basketball profit, how many does that get you?
The idea that you can only be good in 1-2 sports is asinine. We spent $11m this yr on absolute shite results. Gonna spend another $10m next yr for 3 sec wins and even a bigger decay of your fanbase.
If LSU wants a new arena anytime soon, an improved mens basketball team is imperative. Can’t operate a new arena on $6 women’s basketball tickets.
