re: Whomever LSU hires as their next coach...how long will fans be patient?

If the team commits 10 penalities, 3 fumbles, and 3 dropped passes, then, ummm, gonna be smoke in the barn for sure.
re: We can all agree CBK didn't deserve a $100M contract, but would you take a smaller buyout?

I'm not sure BK is laughing. Yes, he will get his money. But this is BK, a pompous SOB, so his pride is hurting powerfully bad. At his age, either he gets another job to rehabilitate his ending career, or quit whining, take his money, and ride off into the sunset.

Obviously you'd take less to get the money up front, just like nearly everyone does with the lottery/powerball.
At least that frames the negotiations. I always believed that if I won the lottery, I would want the lump sum and invest it.
Mark Cuban once recommended that the winner should take the payments annually.
So, BK and LSU are negotiating a lump sum. Right?

Administration would not allow Kelly to do his job.
So, it's the Administration's fault that Kelly's teams executed so poorly?
Plus, if the Administration controlled Kelly's football operations, then instead of complaining, he could comply and watch his LSU team fall apart. For 54 million, Kelly becomes totally mercenary.

What is incredible to me is that if nothing in the contract addresses performance, then LSU and other schools creating contracts like this provide no recourse.
Head Coaches have all the leverage, absent moral clauses or breaking local, state, and federal laws. Without performance checks, the HC can do a great job or a terrible job; either way, the HC gets paid. What a financial boon for the HC. No wonder ADs are not Hedge Fund managers. Ha

A healthy atheltic department lets the coach handle all hires underneath him and helps assist in approvals and the recruiting of coaches. A healthy department also lets the coaches decide playing time. If you really want to have people outside the coaching staff decide those things, youll lose in the long run
I agree. However, in reality, is that how the AD-HC reality is? Especially recently at LSU between BK and SW?
I have no idea, except what I read on TD. Ha.

Does the AD tell the HC which assistants are hired and fired? Which players to play? Football strategy?
I always thought the HC ran his football program.

Ha. Can we say "Les Miles"? He was definitely an odd duck.
All I want is a flexible HC who isn't so stubborn that he won't change... an offensive strategy or replace a failing QB.
LSU Forever!

Jaiden was an Under Armour All-American in 2022 who was recruited and enrolled at Notre Dame.
I updated Jaiden's information to reflect that.

The topic is not about the "other son" at LSU. I am interested in the son, a linebacker at Notre Dame.
Verge Ausberry's son Linebacker at Notre Dame

Jaiden Ausberry Notre Dame
LSU interim AD Verge Ausberry's son is a linebacker at Notre Dame. Jaiden Ausberry attended University Lab High School in Baton Rouge.
Jaiden is a linebacker at Notre Dame. LSU sure needed a linebacker like that.
If we can't even recruit LSU's AD's son, what does that say about the future of LSU today?

Coach Silverfield's Standards
Silverfield described how he meets with the team on Sunday afternoons to review performance and accountability.
His remarks are also meant to reinforce the culture he wants to establish by emphasizing examples of discipline both on and off the field.
Ryan Silverfield. Career Record: 6 Years, 49-21, .700 Win% (at major schools). Bowl Record: 4 Games, 4-0, 1.000 Win% (at major schools)

He is 64. Loves his job. Indiana is perfect for him. Everyone who has checked him out for LSU already knows this. That's why no one is talking about him.

LSU invested in Kelly. Not just money. LSU gave him control and the resources to build a team to be highly successful. Kelly’s football teams were substandard. No need to nitpick now why. The fact is Kelly failed the performance evaluation.
The next LSU coach will also be given control and resources. Anyone who doesn’t see that does not know LSU’s commitment to excellence.
