It is:
quote:

Orgeron's two-way buyout with the program is $12 million this year and drops every subsequent year of the contract. It slips to $8.5 million in 2018, $6 million in 2019, $4.5 million in 2020 and just $1 million for the final year.

Wait? Orgeron would have coached LSU for Red Bull money and a recruiting travel budget. But Alleva signed him to a 5 year deal with a $12 million buyout?

Who does Alleva work for?

Because it's his dream job and he's destined to win titles. Don't want USC to steal him away.

Jay Jacobs must have helped Aleva and King Alexander draw up the contract

LSU literally had all of the leverage. What would Coach O come back with? He has a losing SEC record, no prospects, and he had 2 losses as interim coach. I know you have to probably do something for optics but $12 million? That is insane. Who in the hell thought that was a good idea?

LSU fans should pay the cast guy to take out Alleva.

No one really knows but he's certainly owned by Jeremy Foley.


Why would you ever need a buyout for Coach O? Who in their right mind would try to steal him? Louisiana Community College? Louisiana Correctional Institute?

Yeah, many of us were amazed and angered that he got the job in the first place, but that clause just shows the ineptitude of management at LSU. Why on earth would one need a buyout clause for a job they didn't deserve in the first place?

There should have been a clause that had Coach O pay back his weekly stipend for the shite show he produced last night.

When you have a chance to lock down a top ten coach in conference history, you go big to make sure you bring him home. Unfortunately for LSU fans, Alleva did not take the time to check and see what kind of list it was that Orgeron was in the top ten of before pulling the trigger.

Alleva is tGreatest y'all. Ran circles around Foley getting that game in Red Stick last year too.
