We were 5.5 favorites but massive ESPN predictor dogs

He is claiming that but not sure it holds much water now. He is free to pursue a job now with 12 jobs open (although 3 seemed to have closed this week) and many more to likely open in the next couple weeks.

Clearly not going back to LSU but that leaves Florida, Auburn (maybe), Penn State and UCLA open in the P2. Cal and Stanford are open at the P4 level. Oregon State, North Texas, UConn and USF are open at the G6/Independent level.

Other jobs in the rumor mill to come open are Kentucky (firing), Vanderbilt (if Lea gets poached), JMU (Chesney poached), UNLV (Mullen poached), Maryland (firing), Colorado (firing/retiring), UNC (If they can find a way), Boston College (if they can afford it or care enough), Wyoming, VMI, Samford, UMass, Missouri Valley, Southern, Alabama A&M, Charlotte, UAB, Tulsa, Sam Houston, UTEP, and Middle Tennessee. Thats twenty one other potential jobs with three at P2 and three more at P4.

Missouri this evening approved an extension for Drinkwitz to keep him out of the Carousel but he has not signed it yet. It would vault Missouri to 4th in SEC in assistant coaching pool. Haven't seen the annual number for Drinkwitz but he was already making $9M per year.

Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin obviously are the major domino in this market so that job could open but it washes another P2 job out and same with Vanderbilt.

I don't know if Kelly could take the ego hit to coach below P2 and definitely not below a P4 job. The easy path to secure most of that LSU money would be to take one of the jobs from VMI down but he isn't built that way. Thats why I think he should have taken the $30M and then gotten one of the P4 jobs at a slightly reduced rate but more than enough to offset the $26M he gives up. If he got $7M a year over 6 years that would pay him $35M over the period LSU would have paid him the $26M he gave up. Puts him $9M in the positive over that span and if he does well he could easily be a P2 candidate after a couple seasons signing a deal over $12M a season.

100%. This site and community is the best place to get your Hokie news in an informative and humorous manner. Glad we (especially Joe) all survived the last several years and have the Franklin football era to rejuvenate our tired Hokie souls

Isn't his whole thing now that the way they handled it ruined his chances at a coaching gig? So he can argue they screwed all of it up to the point he's trying "his best" but no one will hire him? And still somehow get it all? Hate that guy but this LSU stuff is comedy. Like some others have said it's crazy how amazing VT's dept looks coming out of this coaching search
