I liked college football because the players aren't perfect and crazy things happened. Now its TMZ and people pissed and holding the players accountable because we're so invested.

It's not. It's every athletic dept in the country and no one wants to be the school that does what needs to be done thanks to Title IX.

Maybe our cheap arse administrators will result in a payoff these coming years.

Fingers crossed BK gets that Rutgers gig.
Why would he basically lower himself to Rutgers level?

He goes from a brand like Notre Dame, side-steps to LSU and then to flipping Rutgers?

BK needs to keep doing whatever necessary for LSU to keep paying him money every month.

If he does he will take the least amount of money possible from them since LSU is already on the hook for the difference.

A few reasons.
- Probably because he wants to coach and doesn’t have many prospects.
-Also there is some talking out there in the ethos that there is interest.
-Honestly, I really don’t care where he goes I just want him to get a job and defer some of this money we owe him.

Would be funny but has a coach ever actually did this? Seems like the contract numbers feed their egos just as much as their bank accounts.

Kiffin did it to USCw for sure. USCw was paying him when Alabama beat them like 52-6 or whatever in that opening game.

I think it's basically what everyone does. But I do remember Kiffin for sure because I would tease USCw fans about it.

That is not how it works. Louisiana offered a total incentive package estimated at $27.5 billion.

Here is the return in the first 10 years

3,000 direct employees
Average salary of $92,600
8,100 indirect jobs
Construction ramps up gradually

State income tax revenue: $15M-$40M per year
Sales taxes from worker spending: $10M-$30M per year
PILOT payments: $25M per year

Good thing Elon is setting up shop in Louisiana.

I’m sure he could do a stadium naming deal.
