Bleachers vs. chair backs.
Probably most people’s gripes come from that if they’re being honest.

NFL really just wants $$$ and doesn’t care about the fans that made the sport what it is.
Sports in general are going for this. Trading passion for eye balls. Hard not to see it being the ultimate demise of most sports.
It's a game of "will they risk it" being will LSU risk trying to enforce his obligation to seek employment, and are the parties willing to litigate whether he put in the requisite effort?
It could get interesting if BK goes next year without any rumblings of interviewing for other jobs, even if he thinks they're beneath him (like a Kansas etc.)

Because this is in the public psyche. My wife is extremely interested in this, and I'd say most women gravitate to this story as it causes them angst. And law enforcement is just as much psychological as it is tangible.
Yes. Cocktails aren’t $20 a drink because of inflation. It’s because desperate people kept paying. Or $25 work lunches.
I got ratioed a month ago for extoling the virtues of Wade and how LSU would be lucky to get him back with one of the responses being:
"Quit living in the past. There are better coaches for LSU to hire than a 12-6 coach at NC State"

Bitch shut up about that Bay Leaf
Yeah, TV rating were always going to go up. The point is that TV executives saw this ultra fat cow and decided it could be monetized. Transfer portal and NIL create more parity, so you get more casual interest which equates to viewership. But at the same time, you are pillaging the fat cow of what sustained it. The interest started because a unique energy to the game, which resulted from fans who were passed down the tradition of following teams and going to games on campus - the electricity in the air would hook each generation for life. Slowly over time with playoff expansion etc. you're going to miss that, and while you'll have a lot of casual fans viewing on TV you won't have the same level of passion. Hopefully the energy isn't subdued to the point where people lose interest, but that's generally how it happens.
Anecdotally, my first LSU memory was a Peach Bowl game against Georgia Tech that in today's world would be deemed "worthless" but at the time had the same energy and intensity as a playoff game today.

It was enforced via buyout.
Exactly, the buyout is the only disincentive you can have in place that is enforceable until there are antitrust exemptions granted for the sport that allows a players union and schools to collectively bargain non-competes/non-solicits.
I agree. I think preseason lines will otherwise have LSU favored in every other game.

Doesn’t change the fact that LSU can’t spend like this year in and year out. They’re going all in now. We’ll see if it works.
You don’t know that. You’re hoping that to be the case. But you don’t know where LSU is getting its money from. People have reported they will have more next year.

I mean, that is filthy. And each position has 1. experienced depth and 2. Young talented third string depth
Going to force liquidated damage provisions with a hardwired number in if someone moves on.

No doubt. But the difference is I buy my family season tickets the day Wade is announced. Any other coach and I wait and see. You cant deny that a Wade hire would energize the shite out of the fan base.
This guy gets it.

Haha probably not. This isn’t LSU football.
And for reference NC State won a total of 12 games last year.

Why don’t you look at their last year results? And what he did at LSU and the excitement he brought. If you don’t get it now you probably never will.
Sounds like there are different interpretations of whether a buyout is paid.
Maybe we should just let him unenroll and enroll at LSU and tell Ole Miss to sue - make our day.

I agree with you. I just think the only “threat” would be Texas if they want him bad enough.
Haha this guy is a bama fan. He can’t stand Alabama not being the center of attention.
Alabama is Nebraska of this era. No billionaires and they can’t utilize a split state government to grease NIL coffers :pimp:
Back of the bus Gumps!

He’d only leave for Texas or the NFL and those are still question marks
But this is stage 2 cope quicker than I thought
First “he isn’t anything special!”
Now “well he’s gonna leave!”

It’s because we are the only school in the state to compete with. Can leverage the whole power of the state economy to incentivize donations to NIL. It’s actually why Lane came here.
I am with you. I read those tea leaves when he was hired. It's a powerful tool for sure.
