Guys, he finished in the Top 6 last year and won a NY6 Bowl.

He's earned a lifetime contract IMHO.

The buyout drops $250,000 a month after some time, I forgot when it was. He will definitely be here for 2 more years unless he absolutely bombs which I don't see happening. IMO it's almost a worse scenario where he will continue to win 9 or 10 games every season, but never a championship.

Had they lost to UCF and their backup QB it would have been considered a bad season.

It's something LSU fans have been doing since the Troy loss happened. Please, PLEASE do not lump me in that group. There is no comparison IMO.

He ain’t lying though....I saw Saban lose that UAB game with my own eyes. We all wanted him fired after that lol.

LSU had WRs playing CB and that backup QB put up 40 points in their previous game. Their fans were talking all kinds of shite about it too before the game.

I was simply answering a question.

Losing to ULM is laughable as well, but Saban hasn't lost to an unranked team since then.

Let's see how long Coach O keeps his streak alive (it was close last year too because weren't UF and A&M both ranked 22nd when they beat LSU?).

I stated a fact about Nick Saban. Let me restate it for you: He lost to ULM in 2007.

Pay him $4m per year with a $10m buyout.



The buyout STARTS at $10M from day one and goes down $250k/mo till it reaches $4M in March 2021 and stays there on remaining contract.

So after 2019 season it will be $7.5M
After 2020 season it will be $4.5M

These are incredibly low buyouts

Even starting at $10M puts it like 10th in the conference, behind coaches like Pruitt and Morris

That so many seem to be having trouble with this is truly mind boggling. It’s an extremely LSU friendly extension.

It's gonna be so hard on you when Bama's decline is complete. I give it three years.

Weird response to me complimenting your coach for his accomplishments.

But in that light, I agree, I'll be praying for a coach who can finish #6 in America and win a NY6 Bowl, which is why Coach O deserves a big deal.

More likely you end up with another Shula.

Coach O is doing a great job. 


When did losing 3-4 games a year and finishing as the 4th best sec recruiting class become,"great"?

Since you guys refuse to pay Coach O for his accomplishments maybe we'll just come steal him away.

He finished #6 in America and won a NY6 game, after all.
