There he is, right on schedule.

The SEC Rant's current Attention Whore King,

Reigning over the Kingdom of Tyger, in the Province of Ellisyou.

LSU fans don't need to post anything.

Compulsively Obsessed Dalton Boy got all the LSU News covered from top to bottom.

We can just sit back and wait for him to tell us what's going on in Tyger Town. .

Dude has a bad case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Lol. Did you read the entire article or just points to make you happy?

Miss that gem.

The article describes elements found in almost every top college athletic department in the country.

You think your athletic director is lying? That would be troubling.

And the LSU athletic department annual financial statements are available online. They are pretty bleak.

If I can just make it to the 4th quarter of this thread all the LSU fans will disappear.

LSU athletics has been basically break even the last few years, sometimes showing a small profit, sometimes a loss.

Now add on $20 million in profit sharing and $60 million in Kelly and Woodward buyouts and the future looks brutal. We are talking millions of chicken tenders.

That doesn't account for their coaching change. They are looking at a seismic jump in severance payments this year with the BK buyout.

A&M is still on the hook as well, but reduced that annual overhead with an initial $19.2MM payout and then a structured annual payment.

Depending on how the BK buyout is structured, LSU could have that "hickey" lasting for 5-6 years.

Kind of remarkable that the agents haven't incorporated interest on buyout clauses into these contracts. That could really cripple a school.

Get us over the hump?

LSU has won national championships during Kelly's coaching career.

Kelly has not.

Over the hump? LMAO.

My bad for the easily triggered.

LSU is simply amazing. They can win with ANY coach.*

Don’t forget that money doesn’t matter - Holden Spaht and Todd Graves will pay for it all.

It does. It sucks being so poor that we were able to buy out Kelly, hire Lane and sign the #1 portal class for the second year in a row. I’m weeping.

Alabama has a larger lead in the series than LSU has wins in the series. I think it pretty unlikely LSU wins 31 in a row considering they have only won 27 out of the 90 games played so far.
