Risk, that's the key. Not only do they have to deal with a buyout, but in a year with lot of coaching changes they have to compete with a lot of other schools and the only homerun hires are at other schools, which means they may have to pay that buyout as well. Even those aren't homeruns.

There's going to be some surprises in this offseason and some tactical patience would serve LSU well right now.

Unless the AD has a real ace up his sleeve, then LSU needs to sit tight for another year at least.
