I cannot understand why ya'll would think otherwise. This is Jimmy Sexton's MO, has done it for years now and you know this. Jimbo ain't going anywhere. Granted I have not read countless hours of TD on the subject, but why in the world would this be anything more than a ploy for cash. Sounds like he needs it with a marital split. And that just makes it so much more complicated anyway, having to be in same town with his kids. I will glady eat my words if all you insiders are correct

There is a lot of precedent for this.

Nah, LSU doesn't make a move like this without a firm assurance that they will get their man.

Has never been happy in Tallahassee.

What most of you fail to account for in the "he ain't leaving fsu argument" is the human side of it.

it's just people who don't know. When Jimmy Sexton is involved, never consider one of his clients interested in anything but getting a hefty raise. thats what JS does. I hate him but he's good at what he does.

Except that is what this is about - getting a bump and years onto his FSU contract.

That's what he will get and LSU will have to look elsewhere. If you thought something else, you got hoodwinked, Sexton style.

HAs anything actually happened that I am unaware of. Ill admit I am not keeping up with this, but as I understand it, this is all coming from LSU fanbase wishful thinking. They have taken one comment, that means nothing, and ran with it.

Lots of smoke. We'll see if Sexton is being Sexton. Put it at a coin flip.

I still have trouble believing it too. Even if Sexton and Jimbo both have verbally agreed to it. They could still be milking it for a raise. Happens every year. Until a contract is signed i wouldnt put all my faith in this. Things change once FSU starts counter-offering or even other schools like USC or UT get into the mix.
The family, divorce, marginal difference between the programs and money, etc. The only real difference is if he likes living in LA that much better than FL, or doesnt care for the administration at FSU. Im skeptical. Hope im wrong.
