"This is a reference to Kiffin’s offseason insinuation that A&M’s No. 1 recruiting class occurred, in part, because of recruiting inducements.

“I didn’t know if Texas A&M incurred a luxury tax with how much they paid for their signing class,” Kiffin said in the offseason of Fisher’s class that included eight five-star signees.

A roster that, in Kiffin’s view, is more talented than the record reflects."

Fisher fired back at the accusations of player purchasing by calling Kiffin and others “clown acts," although Fisher didn't mention anyone specifically by name.

Fisher and Alabama’s Nick Saban later exchanged verbal barbs on this same topic, with Saban claiming without providing evidence that A&M “bought every player” on its roster."

Didn’t LSU have the most expensive roster and coaching staff last year?

Yes, yes, they did.

Most of the LOLSU posters on this site have an IQ of around 50. Most of them have never set foot on LSU campus either.

You're a genius. Maybe that is why BK got fired. Like Jimbo

Yes. kinda. Handful of defensive players were very good. Austin Thomas didn't go get enough OL and instead they focused on WR. We ended up getting a ton of good WR but couldn't get the ball off. They really should have spent money on an entire OL. I think they thought that some of the young guys would work out like BKs first year, but Thomas got hurt and Curne wasn't ready. Neither was Davis.

But Lane wasn't the coach at LSU nor was his GM the GM at LSU so what's your point? Ole Miss "stole" LSU's GM that made those decisions.

That cheating piece of shite, Nick Saban, knows all about buying every player on his roster.

Jimbo got fired cause he went 3-3 against LSU. Splitting our games with such a lesser institution is not acceptable.

I love the revisionist history here considering LSU stole that same GM from us a year prior and you idiots made a huge deal of it the.

LSU has won 3 National Championships in last 22 years, while Jimbo or any other Coach was in fairy land.

Your school can't win, regardless who is there.

No revisionist history on LSU fans' side. LSU hires Glasscock and Austin Thomas was told he wasn't going to be retained. He then signs with Ole Miss and OM fans on X saying they stole him from LSU.
