And there are some LSU fans that think they can keep up with Texas in a bidding war. Texas could shite 8 million a year and not feel it. And LSU can't come up with 6 million.

Texas will pay that. Still no reason to not have a better backup plan than O

O was a "safe" plan for an AD who's scared for his life. He can't hire the Eastern Michigan coach because y'all will burn down his house. This is on the boosters.

IMO the issue isn't passing on Herman (frick that for that kind of money). It's falling back on Coach O without having a decent coaching search to gauge interest from some quality, proven HCs.

Jimbo has a Heisman winner, a national championship and multiple conference titles. And LSU didn't want to pay him 6.5 million. LSU is trying to get a bargain and they aren't going to get it unless they hire Orgeron

Well yeah



Baton Rouge is a crime ridden shite hole and the fan base has unreal expectations.


Add in hurricane season and the daily stench and it all makes sense.

I would normally agree, but they're the ones who fired Les Miles 4 games into the season. If you're going to do that, you can't end the year by removing Ed-fricking-Orgeron's interim tag.

Man, you are just full of bad information.

Jimbo wanted $7.5 million/10 years. frick that.

Herman told Alleva he wanted to interview with Texas first, so Alleva said no thanks.

I know the purpose of this board is to flame LSU, but there's plenty of material without having to repeat flat out lies.
