It’s always great. Haha.

Put it this way:

LSU paid Ed Orgeron just over $9 million for 2021.

In 13 days, they will pay him another $5 million for the first payment of his buyout.

Over the course of 2022, they will pay him an additional $2 million.

Meanwhile, they will pay new HC Brian Kelly an $9 million for the 2022 season. If his team qualifies for a bowl, he will receive another $500k.

So, over the course of two seasons, LSU will have paid approximately $25,500,000 to their football head coaches. This amount is completely exclusive of any other coaches' salaries or buyouts.
