Sorry if this was already posted... 'Save LSU football' fundraiser started to buy out Coach O contract BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - LSU fans might've expected to lose to a certain team from Alabama this year, but not the Troy Trojans. Frustrated fans have now begun to take action. On Sunday, one LSU fan started a fundraiser to "save LSU football." Coach Ed Orgeron's 5-year contract negotiations at the start of this year included a $12 million first-year buyout clause. A clause this fundraiser hopes to meet. "The AD couldn’t do it, so it is up to us... save our program, help our state," the GoFundMe page read. LSU's season started less than ideally, some would even say embarrassingly, after penalties cost the Tigers big in a 37-7 loss to Mississippi State, and again Saturday as they fell to the Trojans at homecoming, 24-21. Troy is the first Sun Belt Conference team to beat LSU in the Tigers' 37 games against the conference's members.
I would support an effort to get rid of Alleva. But O after 5 games? It's easy to see why the LSU "fan" base has the reputation it has.
Not level-headed like x fan base. Which school is x? O is historically bad to this point. And not sure we can donate to Alleva's ouster. I'd put money in if this got close and it would truly be used for said purpose.
