And both comparing him to Chizik.

tamu overpaid for an over-the-hill John Chavis, and then lost their athletic director over a 10% raise.

Don’t put any stock into what an aggie says about the market value for athletic department personnel.

I like coach Oeaux. but I wonder if he isnt the second coming of Gene Chizik. Wins a Natty with a once in a generation QB and a lot of talent he didnt recruit. The next couple of years will show if 7 million is a bargain or if LSU will be bitching as much as we AU fans do about giving Gus the same amount.

Meantime, Oeaux, enjoy your new money. You earned it.

Based on what is being reported, it sounds like O was willing to make concessions in lieu of a $5 million insurance policy.

Saban has always been about a money grab.
Fisher is way overpaid and we will see if he earns it but that's what it took to get a sitting NC winning head coach away from FSU.

LSU benefitted in that they promoted O as an interim and he's earned it.

LOL!
The greatest season in college football history compared to barley qualifying for a bowl game.
And we sign our coach for less, this is too good to be true!

Unlike A&M, LSU has prudent people in charge of their athletic department and spends wisely.

The Aggies athletic dept on the other hand is ran by people seething with jealousy with all of the success their conference opponents and fellow Texas schools have enjoyed while A&M's proudest accomplishment ever is going 1-2 in Omaha or "costing Vince the Heisman" in 05

I need to get some UGA fans up in this thread to laugh at your drought since 1939.

Because he couldn't get out of A&M fast enough? What does it say about your athletic department if they have all the money in the world (at least according to your fanbase), but he'll up and leave to a "rival" (in quoatations because only you perceive LSU as a rival and not vice versa)?

Must be sad to always be a stepping stone that hasn't won anything in 80 years.

Super cute nickname, btw. Does not at all reflect that your resulting to names because your argument has no credibility...

How poor is Lsu? They couldn’t even give O his market value.

Good one XWing,
And who is in charge? Why that LSU alumnus himself and BR boy - Scott Woodward. (he is the one A&M let loosen the purse strings to get Jimbo ) :)

And for FarmerTed's benefit, LSU is not "poor" dumbass.

Only 11% of the entire LSU System campuses budget comes from the State of La. government - which, by the way, is now in the BLACK.
LSU not only has increased endowments and alumni giving, but has the ForeverLSU Campaign and the TAF, and a Top30 Quality Thrust, the Pennington Biomedical Complex, avery progressive Campus Master Plan, and increasing enrollments and average test scores.

Finally FarmerTed, go violate yourself.....or let another Aggie do it I guess.......

Yet how much beloved is LSU and Coach O that no one gives a shite about money there. Only championships matter.

So, how has Faggie done with that 75.5m?
