So you don’t think outbidding other schools to attract top coaches will be an issue for LSU? Because this contradicts other LSU fans in this thread
No to both.

The cause is a university president who has political aspirations and cares about the optics of spending big money on head coaching hires.
The effect is LSU fans worked out some rationale for these political consequences.
The cause is Texas A&M being gay AF.
The effect is Jimbo going somewhere else(maybe LSU) and screwing over Aggy just because he can.
Time will tell.

Actually he never said anything like that but congratulations on showing your desperation of making an argument by rewording what was actually said.

Never said you couldn’t, it’s whether you want to and your admin/donors feel comfortable doing it.
LSU has paid premiums for coaches before. What we haven't done is grossly overpay like A&M did. Again, sometimes fair market value is paying a premium.

I said no such thing, nor would I.

Good one
I've enjoyed your 5 pages of melting as you slowly realize LSU has plenty of money to play with

They are proud of Orgeron making a bottom half SEC salary while still winning 9 games
And y’all are proud of Jimbo getting paid more than anyone in the country while still winning 8 games. Weak attempt at shitting on LSU. Woodward is ours and your only chance at climbing out of athletic irrelevancy is gone

When their donors die they will be poor too

90% of the funds don't come from the fan, it's from big money donors
Are you talking athletic Dept revenues? The vast majority of revenues come TV/Bowl revenues plus ticket revenues in CFB and some in basketball.
No P5 school in the country comes close to 90% of their revenues from "big money donors".

The fact that the LSU Athletic Dept., one of the few that turns a profit,
Every athletic dept in the SEC not named Missouri and perhaps Vandy turns a profit.
It's really not that hard to do with amount of TV/bowl money that flows into the conference.

Yep Mizzou is the only SEC athletic department that spends more money that it takes in. In 2017-2018 fiscal year Mizzou brought in 97 million and spent 102 million, this includes 1 million from that state. Vandy never releases their finances.
Another interesting fact of the 13 SEC schools that report their finances 7 of them do not take any tax money to operate. Even the ones that do take 4 million or less.

In Miles’ final few seasons LSU had the highest paid staff in the country. Not the SEC. In all of college football. Dave Aranda is, I believe, still the highest paid DC if not the highest paid coordinator. Maybe someone can fact check that. Point being is that LSU spends money on athletics.

He stopped responding because he wasn't making sense, and it was clear he was just trying to shite on LSU.

I stopped responding because I was assured LSU has great coaches across the board that are all paid fairly yet clamored for changes in their AD despite having an absolutely ideal coaching setup in every sport as described by your fans.
You also will only apparently pay market value but will still attract all the top coaches in the country if you need to make changes (which of course you don’t)
Not sure why I was expecting realistic responses but continue to discuss amongst yourselves

...and you realize the AD's role and responsibility goes far beyond just coaches, right?

We've been doing it for decades while winning multiple national and SEC titles across the board. We'll spend the money when necessary, but I don't want it to ever be a contract like Jimbo's. You're the only one who seems perturbed by that.

You've gotten realistic responses from multiple posters; you just didn't like the answers to your thinly veiled smear attempt.

If you’re happy with the status quo in your AD then trust me, I am the opposite of perturbed.

I don’t think you understand what market value means
It means paying what someone or something is worth at the time. Your idea that you have to overpay to get a great coach is absurd and very aggy of you. No one else is doing this. They are giving raises to current coaches post success at their respective program
You’re off base dude and clearly displeased with recent moves by LSU
Listen, if O is let go, Woodward will find and pay a top notch coach top notch money. LSU has a history of doing this. Orgeron is an anomaly. Idk what to tell you. We have the highest paid coordinator in the country and for many years had the highest paid staff
I’m sorry about Woodward

You continue to embarrass yourself in this thread.
Yes Alleva actually has hired some good coaches. However, his PR skills are extremely lacking and his fund raising was non existent.
ETA: also Woodward was available so I don’t really care who the AD was. You move that AD to hire Woodward.

I will bet you $100 to charity that if O is let go we end up making a HC a top 5 highest paid HC in the country
Deal?
Deal?

How often does a national championship winning coach leave that school to take a job at another University? I'm good with calling this 'very aggy'.
