re: Coach Ed O to get an extension

 did do a good job. I just dwant NT is nderstanf extending a coach with multiple years in his contract when no one is trying to hire him away. Why no t wait and see what he does next two seasons. What if he goes 8-5 or 9-4 now you’ve promised yourself a larger buyout likely if you decide to fire him. Saban is almost at the age where I wouldn’t expect much more extensions for him even if he manages to win another national title.

That's an argument I've posed before.

I can also see the other side. If you want your guy to go out and battle for top recruits, you gotta extend some good faith. Contract extensions for good work, pay raises for great work.

Ed may never get LSU into the playoff, but if he continues to recruit well, the next guy will be well set up.
