Vegas sucks dong on coaching hire odds


Here were the early odds from one betting site on who would replace Coach O. Brian Kelly wasn’t even listed. They took everybody’s money.

This is great to hear. Thank you!
LSU coach Brian Kelly has really fallen off.

Ironically, Mississippi State was ranked #1 in the first ever CFP rankings. They have been very competitive in football at times. Between 2013 and 2022 they finished ranked 4 times, had a winning record 7 seasons, and finished with 9 wins or more 4 times.

They got blindsided by Leach’s sudden death.

They are typically good at baseball and women’s bball. Men’s basketball won the western division 5 times from 2001-2010. And they have made the NCAA tourney the last three seasons.

It isn’t fair to judge their current football program only 3 seasons after Leach’s death.

Your critique of them is not really accurate.

Over the weekend LSU fans became contract lawyers. Yesterday they became financial advisors.

It is interesting to watch.
I wish we could count LSU as a ranked win. But they weren’t ranked.

Edit: think the clown on Locked on LSU said BK offered 43mm settlement, but not sure whether that is true or not.


If Brian Kelly offered to settle with LSU for a $43 million dollar lump sum and LSU turned it down hoping for $32-35 million… we saw sidewalk math.
He has a contract with a guarantee of $54 million.

It looks like a 10 year treasury note closed at 4.081% today. That is as close to zero risk investment as there is.

$35 million invested today at 4.081% interest will be worth $44 million in 6 years.

Do you have a zero risk investment with a guaranteed 10% annual return?

Why do you think Brian Kelly will take $35 million?

Arkansas is 0-1 against ranked teams.

They need to just offer him a decent lump sum of $32-35 million. If they can't afford that, just pay the man his money over the 6 years.


The current value today of $54 million paid equally over the next 6 years at an annual 8% interest rate is $42 million. At 5% interest it is $46 million. Why would he accept $32-35 million?
SidewalkTiger said this is normal with all coaching changes.
The Frank Wilson interim coach press conference is going to be fun to explain in court.
In week 4 LSU was 3-0, ranked #3, and had 2 first place votes. In week 10 they were 5-3 and unranked.

And then the wheels really fell off.

Who Gets the Loss From Saturday Night?

Does Brian Kelly get it since according to LSU he was still the coach? Or does Frank Wilson get it since he was introduced by LSU as the interim coach and actually coached the game?

This is very important as it will directly impact Brian Kelly’s winning percentage.

re: LSU never technically fired Kelly.

I’m no lawyer, but it’s fascinating to see LSU have a presser and name and interim coach, who has already coached a game, if BK was not fired….


I think the powers that be are meeting first thing every morning bouncing ideas off of each other on how to make things worse. Pure incompetence can’t explain it at this point. Brian Kelly and hundreds of lawyers will never have to work another day in their life once this is all over.
