You do not fire the winningest coach in your programs history, you wait for him to retire.

If you want to be the best and that is you reason to fire him then you pay to be the best.

Agreed. But nothing shocks me with this administration anymore. Alleva has got to go.

I don't see how you can justify going low with Orgeron after you just opted to pay $10MM in a buyout.

Alleva just paid les miles 10 mil to leave, so he could turn around and hire a lesser version of Les Miles.

Dude....

$6M on a coach with 3 losses to Navy, SMU, and Memphis in Conference America??? Seriously??

Texass screwed up royally with Strong and they have no choice but to go with the crowd favorite and pay him a lot of money. They are stuck in a bad spot.

Herman is no guarantee. Odds are 50/50 on him as a successful big time HC in a major conference.

Oh BS.

Ask Texas. Strong was hotter when they hired him than Herman is now.

We fricked Herman if anything. He was using us for more money from UT.

Herman wasn't coming for 6 million. That was stage 1. Were not outbidding Texas regardless.

True, but this is the downside of the success and money of the SEC. Everyone is scrambling to make more and more, and the arms race and seller's market is just a part of it.

They through out a ridiculous number to drive up the price. Herman was never coming here.

I don't understand why you spend 10M on a buyout of a proven 8/9 W coach to hire Ed Orgeron. I don't understand it.

Say what you want about Les but that fricker was good for min 8-9 wins
