story from Chris Vannini

1) kiffins buyout doesn’t have any offset or mitigation. So LSU is totally on the hook if they fire him

2) buyout if he wants to leave is $7 mil and drops by $1 mil every year. Barely more than the buyout at Ole Miss

3) LSU is paying his bonus for Ole Miss making the playoffs/ advancing. This isn’t uncommon in the finance industry but still wild to see for a coach. Means Kiffin could have cost himself $$$ by poaching ole Miss coaches before the playoff

What's the buyout when he's fired? I don't have an account.

80% of remaining value. So $62.4 mil next year then dropping $10.4 mil every year after that.

Just like I said two months ago

Very common now, 70% - 80% no mitigation is what you are going to see on any contract Sexton is involved in.

When are you idiots gonna learn Landry did LSU a favor. On the flip side, Shark/Reb fans are saying Kiffin will leave. If so LSU is off the hook. Looks like a win/win for LSU.

I am way less surprised that he left based on those details. $72 mil guaranteed (even if ole miss matched the salary I doubt we matched the buyout and offset) from day 1. That is double the $36 mil buyout on his last ole miss deal.

I thought LSU was broke and poor? What’s the new narrative going to be next week?

I’d bet that OM wanted a significant buyout from lane if he left too
