Lane Kiffin (HC Ole/Young Miss & Twitter Troll King)

LSU prepares robust term sheet in efforts to woo Lane Kiffin: Seven years and up to $98 million, plus bonuses

Should he take the offer from LSU, Kiffin would for a moment become the highest-paid coach in college football​

LSU is preparing one of the richest contracts in college football history in an attempt to lure Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin to Baton Rouge, a person familiar with the discussions tells CBS Sports.

The deal is believed to be for seven years and worth as much as $98 million, the source said, and includes a significant promise that would make LSU competitive in revenue sharing and NIL, the source said. A formal offer has not yet been made. Kiffin is expected to make a decision on his future after next Friday's Egg Bowl against rival Mississippi State, Ole Miss athletics director Keith Carter said Friday.

A seven-year deal averaging $14 million per year would make Kiffin the highest-paid coach in college football. Georgia's Kirby Smart entered the 2025 season with an annual salary of $13.3 million. Brian Kelly, the former LSU coach, was fired during the fourth year of a 10-year, $95 million contract.

State laws in Louisiana complicate high-paying contracts for university employees, so LSU's contract is expected to include "easy-to-achieve" incentive bonuses, a source said. LSU's base salary will probably be capped at just north of $3 million with additional money coming from outside sources and incentives. Additional bonuses could push the lifetime value of the current offer above the $98 million threshold.

Just sayin': Anyone surprised that LSU has no problem with skirting the intent of the state of Louisiana laws?...... :lol: Highest coaches salary, 7 year contract, and generous availability of NIL money; needless to say since Lane Kiffin has never been loyal to any school, it is undoubtedly a done deal, he's going to LSU.
Good money for being the son of a famous coach

Assuming that's what it is, the question is how does that affect him mentally? I wouldn't think you'd be able to keep him out of The Game and it's not like he's seriously going pro. He's all in for this one and no reason to hold back, BUT you can have all the right mindset and then flinch right when it matters.

The thing about a bad stinger is the first time it happens you think the world has ended and think you're paralyzed on one side. After that, you know intellectually that's not going to happen, but also that if you hit it wrong, it's going to really hurt. I think he's got a ton of heart and he's earned the start in The Game. I hope they give him a chance and that he balls out AND that he doesn't give up a big play either mentally or physically.

Jeremiah Smith just gave biggest hint yet he won't miss Ohio State vs. Michigan​

As if there was any doubt about Jeremiah Smith's health, he let Ohio State fans know what is up.
Fortunately for everyone in Buckeye Nation, Smith's quote tweet of Zach Smith hints what he will do.

Week 13 Game Discussion Thread

Just shut the fuck up about Arch. He was 18 of 30 against a 2-9 team with an interim coach. He's not back. He hasn't turned the corner. He sucks.
Didn’t watch yesterday, but he’s been pretty consistent this year. Poor footwork results in accuracy and arm strength issues. He’s an ok college qb, but still not as good as Ewers.
