I disagree. By suing the state Kelly would not see any money for a long time…if ever.

That's the worst thing that could happen to LSU. The longer it drags on, the more negative attention it will draw.

I don't understand all this back and forth about his buyout because, thanks to Woodward, he has LSU bent over a barrel and there is not really anything LSU can do. It's now being reported Kelly wants the entire amount of the buyout, which I don't understand why that was in question, in the first place.

If I'm owed $54M, and you had to pay me until 2031 for me to get every penny, then so be it.

Would you leave money on the table and take less?

If we're being realistic and we take off our purple sunglasses, we're not an elite program anymore!

In the days when LSU was elite, teams feared us and knew they had to play perfect to beat us. Nowadays, we've become an easy win for opposing teams and we are not far away from becoming everyone's favorite HC opponent!

It wasn't long ago, we were the talk of college football and a shoe-in for the CFB playoffs and now we're a complete embarrassment. We need a complete overhaul and that includes every coach, including Frank Wilson and the DC. We've become complacent and now being average is okay. Screw that! We're LSU and we're an elite school and we should not lower our standard - ever!

Instead, now all we get are excuses!
- Well, Nuss and Weeks are injured - everybody's got injuries!
- The defense has played better - What? LSU still can't stop a running QB. In three games - Ole Miss, Vandy and A&M - the three QBs averaged almost 90 yards rushing. It's worth noting that the Ole Miss QB is a transfer from Division II Ferris State!
- Well, we did have 4 OL drafted - true, but they sucked while they were at LSU and we had the worst rushing offense in the SEC!
- This year's OL is young - What? We have more 4 and 5 star OL on campus than in the history of LSU and we're averaging 100 yards less on offense than last year.
- Our defense is improved - What? We're LSU and we are currently ranked 39th in the country and 8th in the SEC with a DC that has been there almost two full years! LSU is known for having elite defenses and these numbers are embarrassing!

We can add a couple of hundred more excuses, but I'm done with it all. We're LSU and we should be elite every year - PERIOD!

We pay elite money for our HC, assistants and players, but get below average returns on investment. That's not acceptable!

Fire the entire staff and let's start from scratch and return LSU to its elite status where it belongs!

I hope you are judged as harshly on your job after 2 weeks.

Two weeks? What are you talking about? Baker has been at LSU for two years and that's plenty of time to correct the defense. On top of that, LSU signed a large group of defensive players from the portal and our defense is average at best.

It may not be a popular opinion, but the reality is our defense was shredded once again by running QBs. He has improved our defense, but it's nowhere near where it needs to be and I'm tired of settling for average. We're LSU and the defense needs to bring fear to our opponents and now they welcome us with open arms! Not acceptable!

So within 24 hours of becoming president, he's already become a public embarrassment!

The next few years should be splendid!

For me, I would have to say yes, simply because he won LSU a NC and put together a team that many consider the best LSU football team ever and one of the best college football teams of all time by many across the country.

Sure, after winning the NC, he reverted back to his old ways of chasing women instead of focusing on the football team, but you have to give him credit for what he accomplished on the field.

I couldn't agree more. It was hard to take him serious when he wore his oversized sunglasses and gold chains during press conferences. Throw in the rappers and thugs on the sideline and it was truly a circus.

I lost all respect for him when he told the Colorado players to hit the portal because be was bring his own players and then talks about being a Christian in the sentence.

I laugh every time I hear Deion talk about how his team was prepared for the game and it should not have resulted in another blowout loss. I think that's called poor coaching. The biggest problem Colorado fans are dealing with now is finding another coach that wants to take over this huge dumpster fire Deion has created!
