Nope.

Their plan was to offer a great D coord a great deal, but within reason.

LSU overshot on the counter-offer. That price tag is too high for Aranda as DC. It's not that aTm couldn't match, it's more likely they didn't see the value at that price.

Yeah. I know Aranda wanted to leave, and if LSU simply matched, he'd be ours. Sucks.


Denial is a powerful emotion.

Crazy, that's what many LSU fans said about Jimbo last year. But for some reason the reaction was totally different

I'm not saying they are. I'm saying the AD may have been duped into overspending for an asset he overvalued simply because a rival sought to acquire it.


In our current situation, he is NOT overvalued.

I thought/still think they were right.

But, this kind of money for a coordinator, as good as he may be, seems a bit of a different situation from HC pricing, which Jimmy Sexton and Saban chasing programs have already caused to overinflate.

Fair enough.

Should honestly just make Aranda the HC.

LSU fans have to feel good that they kept their best coach.

I will eat some crow, I didn't think they would step up like that.

aTm is balls to the wall trying to overtake LSU.

Like...do you realize LSU hasn't won the SEC West or SEC since 2011?

We're flattered, really. But, there are at least 2 maybe 3 teams better than us each year.

That’s true. One step at a time is the only way to move.
