UCLA Bruins

Another look from another perspective on Walker, I guess some think that a move to LSU from UCLA is not a move up....

Anyway, right now its not clear whether LSU is seriously interested in Walker. I haven’t heard of any reported interviews. The data points to keep in mind is Walker’s salary. Conventional wisdom is that LSU would be able to offer Walker ridiculous amount of $ outspending UCLA. Yet, if you look at the fact UCLA is paying Walker at a rate of $375,000 per year, which is not too far off from $400,000 LSU was paying Bo Pellini, their former celebrated DC who ended up taking the head coach position at Nebraska.
Salary doesn't factor in cost of living in LA vs. Baton Rouge. Even if we paid him the exact same thing as UCLA he's in effect getting a raise coming to LSU.

but he says we shouldn't be looking down on a 4-8 team that played such a difficult schedule. There is no way our program is better.

I wouldn’t be calling another program a “mess,” while dealing with my own, which just one year removed from a BCS championship is hobbling around with a 7-5 record, featuring 4 wins against Appalachian St, North Texas, Tulane and Troy (to which my team almost suffered one of the more humiliating losses in recent college football landscape). Yeah, if Neuheisel's team played that kind OOC schedule, UCLA would be preparing for a bowl game as well.



Ouch. That hurts.

They obviously donm't follow LSU football too much by some of the assumptions made from one bad season.
