I have a theory...

- Start date
Golding is the permanent solution until he isn’t. Meaning if they see a better opportunity, or he takes a step back the isn’t part will kick in. I thought they should have named him interim, then they should have conducted a national coaching search. I get the calendar is the decider now, but their brand is as hot as it has been in a while.
He’s permanent like Arnett was permanent. This has all the initial appearances it will work out about as well for them as it did for us.
Some olemiss guy told me there was no buyout on his upcoming contract. Maybe he was right. If so - doesn't sound super permanent or confident.
So they can fire him for free. Got it.
I bet in the fine print - he will move back to DC upon firing.
In the spirit of Faulkner. Nice!
they're paying that goofball with zero head coaching experience $7 MM ??????????? what in the actual 17
Talk about competing with yourself. nobody would even be coming after him at $3 MM. good lord, they're dumb as a box of bricks
Man, he better beat Tulane. Realistically, he’s Arnett 2.0. 1 year then they are back in the coaching market.
I can't get over Ole Miss paying $7 million for Pete Golding. He's been a good DC but this is a classic overpaying.
Drebin made this point on the pay board - even if they beat Tulane - it better be by a lot. Because if they don't and then they get skulldrugged by Georgia - there's going to be some scratching of heads.
They are paying him $7 million so he must be a great coach. The more you pay for something the better it is**
Petey had that Kiffin dirt to help secure 6.8 Mil in Oxford plus incentives. Bo said this morning it was a 5 year contract. A keep quiet on kiff guaranteed coaching payoff of sorts.....
If there is no buyout - then the length of the contract has no bearing.
We won a bowl game with Greg Knox at the helm. Sometimes talent just overwhelms coaching. They'll beat Tulane, which will only add to their cockiness after what could possibly be the easiest schedule in the history of P4 teams.
it'll just make next year's fall off of the cliff that much more glorious, and UGA will pummel them in rd 2
I'm sure Golding knew what the Rebels offered Lane. He probably told them he would step up and keep the ship moving forward for half of what they were going to pay Lane.
Didn't Louisville have a QB who has won this little known award called the NFL MVP?
Very December 2022 State-esque. Emergency internal hire, trying to keep the team and recruits together.
