re: 1st Year Kiffin Expectations

I suppose what we will do after our 8th win of the year is enjoy it for 24 hours and then start
focusing on game number 9…..?????

You people are just ignorant. Not a penny of State of Louisiana money goes to LSU football, it's self supporting.

Got it so you don’t know how big time athletic departments function either.

You gotta be retarded to think then sticking at LSU for 2 years is a lesser assumption than both leaving after 1.

Money no State of La money goes to LSU football, never has in my lifetime. You should know that Lane is a problem???

What he said is true. While they both have more eligibility, they’re both projected to leave next year (Seaton especially). Leavitt could pull a Moore and stick around for 1 more year (which might be logical if he struggles after missing spring ball due to injury), but that might end up being very expensive for LSU. Rumors are Moore is getting upwards of 8mil at Oregon.

To be honest it seems like 8 wins would be a failure considering just the amount they have invested in QB and LT for 1 year. I personally have them at 9-3.

A failure based on what?

You have no actual idea what they spent, how that compares to anyone else, or how much they will spend going forward.

All I’ve seen us brag about is how good Lane is at recruiting. I’ve said nothing about money or how much was spent. You?

This also reddens the asses around here.

Which brings me back to how next level he is at recruiting. You know because of how broke we are.

You can actually make very educated guesses based on what numbers have been officially reported. For example, Sorsby went to Tech for 4.5. Based on how quickly he went off the board you can assume he was the first choice for Tech and LSU. Being that Leavitt didn’t go for much later you can assume he eventually settled for less money than Sorsby (so probably 3.5-4 million). Seaton is also probably around the 3 range due to who LSU was competing against for him and what it was reported he wanted.

For Princewill it’s already been reported LSU paid the buyout for Ole Miss as well as his NIL asking which only logically would be greater than the 1.6 he was making at Ole Miss or there’s no reason to leave.

In all, those 3 players cost around 10 million based off educated guesses. That 3 players on a 80+ man roster… so yeah I’d say for most CFB roster costs, an 8 win season would be terrible ROI on how much LSU has spent on that roster.
