Mahlzan, although his buyout seems paltry now.

Plus, you’ve got to keep in mind all the coaches that did work out, like Saban. His contract was $10 MM per year, I’m sure the buyout would have been big.

Gus at $21M is like nothing anymore. Only schools like mine can't "afford" to pay that.

People forgetting Charlie Weis?,  got his new deal in 2005,  fired four years later and paid about $19 m to go away.

Now that was a schematic advantage.

I knew I forgot someone.

But he forgot to bring Tom Brady to ND.

Oops.

Is the Gov in the wrong lane about this can he overrule the LSU Prez? I imagine being a state school he could but can the the Gov steal a march on the Prez? As Politics has turned into a corrupt shyt show I don't know

I didn't know about this, but apparently the LSU president is vacant right now, according to reports.

LSU has an interim president right now.  Permanent prez to be selected/named soon.  The president and the board largely serve at governors' pleasure, and the gov. does technically wield a lot of power.  Many of them have stayed out of the way, at least publicly.  Many of them haven't.  Huey P. Long famously ran LSU athletics basically as a monarch.  So who knows, could be his assassin just really didn't like his coaching picks or the ticket prices he set.

That's why when people tell me "Illinois is more corrupt than your home state," I tell them, "Maybe, but ours is a lot more entertaining."

Illinois seems to still try to do their dirt on the down-low most of the time.  Louisiana puts it on display, calls the media, and expects you to treat the open corruption as amusement.
