re: Does LSU not have the money to fire BK?

The current value today of $54 million paid equally over the next 6 years at an annual 8% interest rate is $42 million. At 5% interest it is $46 million. Why would he accept $32-35 million?
No one is taking a PV assuming 8% discount rate while the Fed is cutting rates towards ~3.5%. His 54mm is guaranteed, so the discount rate needs to be a lot closer to the risk free rate than a high investment return rate. The 46mm is a much more reasonable estimate depending on how much he cares about the offsetting clause going away.
Edit: think the clown on Locked on LSU said BK offered 43mm settlement, but not sure whether that is true or not.

re: SEC CG scenario

Everybody holds the tiebreaker with A&M, including Texas in the scenario that they are tied. That’s how bad their schedule has been. It’s literally about to break an all time SEC record of the worst conference schedule in history.

Wake/Mich tied with 1:26 left in OT. Playing in Detroit, so this would be a pretty big upset of #6 Mich

Wake beginning to choke. Was really hoping to see them knock the B10 down a notch in this one.

Okay…then we will beat a 1 loss sec team in the championship game.
Maybe, but you have to win in Austin to even get there because…wait for it…your SEC schedule is the easiest in the history of the conference. Pretty sure you would lose the tie breaker to UGA, Ole Miss, UTx and Bama if at least 2 of those are also 7-1 or better. That tells you everything you need to know about how bad your SEC schedule is.
Better win the next 3 SEC games if you want a championship (includes SECCG). Lose 1 and you’re probably out despite all of the hype and posts all season long.

How can we say A&M is the best when they have not played #2, #3 , #4 and #5 ?
We cannot. Only Aggies definitively think they are the best in the conference while having played zero of the top half.

They shouldn't even be in the conversation and should be ranked below Bama, Georgia and Ole miss respectively until they play one of them
Umm, of course they are in the conversation. They may be the best in the league. They also may not be, but it hasn’t been decided which is why they are in the conversation. Only teams that are officially (or unofficially as in Vandy) eliminated from getting to Atl should be left out of the conversation.

Brother, I don’t know what to tell you. You can check my post history, and it will speak for itself on how much of a “troll” I am against A&M.
I pointed out that we were embarking on history in the SEC, which is 100% factual, and A&M fans started losing their minds.
If A&M wins a Natty over OSU, Indiana, ND, Texas Tech, even UGA, I will be very happy for them. Ole Miss as well. I will 100% root for UGA over non-SEC teams as well. AU and Tenn are the only ones I definitely won’t, with LSU and Texas being a case by case basis. I was rooting for Sark over OSU last year. Not every fan on here is a hater, but many of us aren’t going to sit back and not discuss history in the making. Playing all SEC teams with 4+ regular season losses is almost unfathomable.

You sidewalk fans have some crazy logic. UT grads live all over the Republic of Texas. And the world.
So you did got to UTx? Because if you did, you would have spent time living in Austin and have a degree or degrees from UTx which would make the phrase “friend from Austin” apply, regardless of where you currently reside. This isn’t rocket science, Vernie

Hmmm, Bama fans getting nervous about the SECCG w/ A&M.
Or, and stay with me here, we’re witnessing something in our conference that has literally never happened before and it’s a relatively interesting topic for some of us data driven folks. (Apologies for the collateral damage of the A&M posters’ feelings)
If your team does their job this weekend, it could happen! (Or they could lose in Austin and they never were the best team in their state, let alone the conference).

Holloway is going to make a lot of critics eat crow. He will never be a great defender but he is an absolute scoring machine when he is confident. We have an insane pair or guards and we havent really seen Bethea yet. We need defense from the 2 spot. But we might be seeing those young guys do their best Herb impression. It will come down to how much the other guys can shoot. How much do yall think we will see Philon and Holloway together?
He fouled out and was completely overmatched against bigger players as has been typical against top teams (I get the refs were bad, but don’t think Holloway was the main issue on those).
He played really well on offense last game and was great to see. However, he played horrible on offense against Duke and FL last year. The biggest issue is that due to his defensive and rebounding limitations, if he has an off night on the offensive end he is a 100% liability all over the court and is totally unplayable. He literally has to have an awesome game offensively to even be a net add. If he’s even just above average on offense, he is a net negative due to being bottom rung on everything else.
I’d love to eat crow on Holloway. I just don’t see how it’s even possible unless he gets a lot stronger and better defensively. He’ll have some good games for sure, but there will be games that if coach doesn’t bench him, we have zero shot to win. Hope Oats realizes it’s one of those games early enough when needed.

What the Barn doesnt understand is that Auburn basketball isnt a program it was Bruce Pearl. Without him there they will return to what they have always been. Possibly the worst basketball school in the SEC.
You’re assuming they care about football. I’m not sure that’s a realistic assumption anymore.

Other than Josh Pate saying Freeman should be LSU’s first call, I have to imagine they’re having a field day with this.

A lot of Tide fans were calling for their first year coach to be fired.
Tbf, most of us wanted to see him with at least 1 to 2 more QBs to make a legit judgement (I said I’d wait 3 different QBs for final judgement). However, he absolutely made some head scratching in-game coaching mistakes…the USC game being the worst.

How is losing to UGA even associated with losing to A&M in the same sentence? Texas is just another flea on the UGA schedule. Texas is the hardest game on the A&M schedule. If Vern eats out tonight at Ruth's Chris or Dairy Queen.... what?
It appears you focused on the wrong part of the post and tried to make everything about UTx. While not surprising, it would benefit longhorn fans if they understood that not everything is about Texas. Have some self awareness my friend from Austin (and yes, I recognize MtVernie is likely an alt)
