Unpopular Truth: Why BK and Kiffin had zero incentive to win
Posted by VooDude on 11/9/26 at 3:11 am
Dear fellow baws,
Let me break down the Brian Kelly / Lane Kiffin situation in terms you can digest between dip spits.
Both of these guys signed 10-year, $100M fully guaranteed deals.
To translate this for the demographic on here: If the local gas station clerk hands you 10 cartons of Marlboro Reds and 100 scratch-offs upfront, but threatens to ban you from the store while letting you keep all of it... why would you care if you get banned? In fact, why wouldn't you just grab a heated rollershop hot dog and walk out on purpose so you can go sit on the porch 5 years early?
"bUt VOODDUDE, aLL cOaCh cOnTrAcTs aRe gUaRaNtEeD!"
Wrong. Normal coaches aren't sitting on $100 million in generational wealth. They actually have to win games because they need a job next year to pay off their truck. BK and Kiffin are incentivized to fail upwards into a $60M couch buyout while golfing or doing hot yoga.
You guys are arguing about play-calling; they are playing a fully-funded early retirement simulator.

The program is officially dead. Kiffin used us.
Will LSU ever rebound back to Les glory says? And you impatient idiots had to fire him.

Ja, but they are usually less than 3 million and 3 years guaranteed boy.
I try to make things fun and interactive around here so you understand

Lane Kiffin and Brian Kelly were both talented coaches, but.
You and the LSU admin don’t know how incentives work.
These guys both get ~10 million a year for 10 years guaranteed. So to translate, if a gas station gives you 10 lotto tickets or 10 cig packs, and threatens to kick you out of the gas station with you keeping them in your pocket, would you care? If those cig and lotto packets were guaranteed, why not expedite getting kicked out of the gas station sooner?

You know what I mean.
Any other people leave the state for things like higher education, jobs, etc. but still remain an LSU fan?
My school didn’t have a good football program, so remained a fan, and haven’t missed a game for over a decade until multiple last and this season.

They did, but would rather go to the library than see a shite fest like that.
Jealous of U Michigan. Not as generous of a school from an aid/scholarship perspective, but at least you get the best of both worlds.

At least we’re not Ole Miss. LSU and Ole Miss now both suck at football, but LSU will be better than Ole Miss next year once it is drained.
But what do I know? Just a LA refugee to an Ivy League school and kept LSU fandom because football doesn’t exist up thur.

If I’m not trolling, Leav’it at the door is the best lsu qb since Burrow and JD6.

Give him 3 years to build a good roster.
Think about it
Brian Kelly Scenario
Posted by VooDude on 11/7/26 at 5:44 pm
If you hire Kelly back, does that mean his salary is no longer deadweight and reactivated? But we’d just owe LK’s buyout?
Look at the bright side

We’re now a basketball school…
…and I don’t even like basketball.

Can’t believe he built a ballroom. What a waste of space.

What a lameass headline to get in a quip supporting impeachment. You are either an idiot or you don't want any Republicans to ever win again.
I know you live in LA and are used to corruption, but there’s no excuse for blatant corruption from the leader of the free world. It’s obvious too. The last R hope we have left is Rubio.
Do you realize the amount Trump made from those damning transactions that the SEC will have a field day with?

Look at Korea where prosecuting your president for minor things has become a norm.
Now, you’re going to see Trump being investigated by the SEC for his pump and dump shite coin (wild when you finally process that), along with the insider trading scheme. Probably will get a son or two indicted too.
Probably just the beginning.

Looks like them libbies got enough senate seats to impeach Trump this time. Sad.
To be fair, they probably should as he’s nearly as bad as Biden and more focused on helping Israel than America. But frick’em anyway.

It’s a simple fix really. Trump can take the third term with Vance in waiting by force.
