Did you see what Mizzou offered?
$1.9 million is not $2.5 million and making him the highest paid assistant coach.

Nah. We'll be in the playoffs next year. LSU will most certainly not.
Lost to LSU on the field by double digits
Lost your best coach to LSU
Going for the trifecta now I see with the above statement. Dont worry little SEC member, Missouri will always have their good but not great seasons.

All I can say to that is WTF.
By your logic everyone should be going after Ohio (not state), Air Force, SMU, Troy, and South Alabama defensive coordinator since they were all in the Top 15 in defense.
Akron, Toledo, Miami Ohio, Bowling Greer, NIU, Ball St. Also all ranked higher. Wouldnt you probably just assume those guys are ranked higher based on the opponents they play.

So we made it worth his while? LSU/TAF has money.
Look, it's ok, LSU took your best coach. It happens.

At least we trying. You satisfied with NY6 bowl and never having a chance at NC. Congratulations I guess. You saved a few dollars.

$2.1 million is year three. Baker isn’t sticking around anywhere for three years.
And our “best coach” shite the bed against LSU. Go watch the Florida game too and see how he needed Kirby Moore and the offense to bail his arse out.

So LSU is spending money... LSU isn't building a nest egg to retire on, like a single person would be. It's basically a business, and it's investing money back into itself to improve.
You can say Woodward is repeating what he did at A&M, but there's a big difference: LSU has a proven track record, and A&M doesn't. A&M was guessing what MIGHT work, LSU knows what DID work.
I think the LSU money guys are aware that over the past few decades, LSU has been slightly better than UGA. That's in any given timeframe; LSU has had the slightly higher ceiling. Alabama came in during that period and jumped everyone, but now UGA has closed that gap and may be set up better than Bama. And LSU's people are seeing that they need to put effort out to catch UGA again, and they're doing it. This was after going cheap a few years with Ed O, and realizing they screwed up the longterm potential, and now they're fixing that.
And by the way, they can still afford to pay a baseball coach and a WBB's coach top dollar, without dropping into the red. The purpose of all this money is to make more, and spend it to keep things rolling. No reason to go cheap.
