The first thing out of this lady’s mouth in this interview shows in my opinion how stupid-conditioned everybody is to these completely ridiculous guaranteed money amounts in these coaching contracts:
In a nutshell, she asks why would somebody take the job at LSU given the circus that’s happening there?
Answer: because you’re freaking richer than a movie star if you get the contract.
Now I can see why Lane Kiffin or Dan Lanning won’t take the job; it’s because even though they could make a little bit more, it isn’t worth moving and they can just leverage the situation for a contract extension at their current gig anyway.
But for an up & comer? The answer is simple - all about the money.
Getting fired is practically a reward at this point, and it’s out of control.
