I think that Orgeron (9-3) came closer to winning SEC this year than ATM U did?

True, but A&M has a brand new coach. And the poster said that Fisher should have much higher expectations because of his salary. From that statement, it sounds like LSU fans are ok with lower expectations from Orgeron since he is making a lot less money.


I think fans don't understand the concept of coaches salaries. Salaries do not guarantee results. They only get you a coach that has a better chance at getting those results. Kirby is one of the lower paid head coaches in the SEC. (I'm sure he will get a nice raise, though, now that he has won the SEC)

Well, when the ATM U guaranteed salary of $7.5 million for ten years, you might "expect" a certain high result, but the accountability and performance required to meet such expectation is not assured. In coaching ten years is a long time!! At LSU we understand it takes more than just a Head Coach, and we have invested in Coordinators as well. But nobody was given a ten year guaranteed contract.

And yes, the Tiger Nation does expect future championships as well.
