LSU fans will scrape together 500k just to put a “Fire Sankey” billboard up in a couple cities just for shits…

Heck we’ll probably even end up giving you the money just so Princewill won’t be put out!

This just reeks of the kind of antics you see on Judge Mathis small claims court.. 25% “for entertainment” / 75% of shite we really need that cash…

We also raised a lot of money for a small school just because their former kicker made a game winning kick for us.

He broke his contract days after signing it. Ole Miss is owed the money. Being owed money doesn't make someone poor. It makes the person owing the money poor.

LSU will likely cover that debt after he gets 4 sacks and 5 tackles for loss this weekend.

Almost every profession has had people back out days after signing before getting paid because of having second thoughts.


Almost always if no money has changed hands courtesy is extended because

A. It happens


B. The negative image it gives towards current and future employees is not worth the trouble.



Ole Miss is in that special place where they are so jilted that they don’t care they just see red and want to metaphorically slash their ex’s tires in any way possible.

If Ole Miss or any school for that matter didn’t pursue contract buyouts they would get walked over from here on out.

The school has to pursue buyout. Not for the money but so it doesn’t happen again.

You know we aren’t pursuing money from Dottery right. Because he didn’t sign a contract with a buyout.

Did I say anything about dottery?



No I didn’t.




I’m sure if he had signed y’all would be.




I’m saying that while legal to go after contracts at that level it’s typically given courtesy for the above reasons.




For example

In this situation you can’t give courtesy because no signed rev share contract with buyout language would ever mean anything again.

You just have to pursue and show the attempt to pursue and settle. It’s not for the money, it’s for the principle.

Ole Miss has plenty of money

I doubt they are poor either considering many have pro earnings and don’t have to pay a mortgage due to their ability to live rent free

If it weren’t for Lane being petty as he always has been (acts like a 10 yr old) LSU would have paid the buyouts for the players.

Hell I imagine LSU told the players they would cover the buyout

That would hold true for every contract of all time

Like I said.

Though serving someone after practice on your game week against them will be hard to sell as “we had to do it”

No Ole Miss hate here. I agree with every word.

Ole Miss could’ve timed this a little better though. Maybe in the offseason.
