    Lol
    Seriously though, I can't wait for that day. Their reign at the top has been a nightmare that I can't wake up from.

    Great deal for both. 2023 is a long ways off. If KU shitcanned Les before paying him 6.5 we're back on the hook. Actually Les is assuming all the risk. 1.5 is 1% of our budget. Ku signed their last hc for 800k. Was making 1.7 when let go. Les should get about 2 mill Id imagine.

    Plus washing our hands of this thing frees up money for alleva to throw on some shitty extension for Orgeron. Probably a little bump for Ensminger as well.

    Les rumored to be announced as ku head coach later this evening. Maybe at halftime of LSU basketball game.

    depends on wording of contract.
    if 6.5 is guaranteed, then LSU would have been free and clear.

    ordinarily, i’d agree that it probably good for both sides.

    however, with Alleva negotiating for LSU, well my confidence level plummets.

    He won't get 6.5 guaranteed. Fuck this is the best deal alleva has ever done.

    $1.3mil a year for 5 years (even if all guaranteed) is cheap for a power 5 coach.
