They know exactly what to do and an FSU counter was expected.......this is a complex process.

No, but there are many of coaches that want to win and will employ the needed strategy and changes in order to do so. Les wants to run his style more than he wants to win.

That makes absolutely no sense. If we went after Fisher we didn't blow our wad on one offer. We had to have known FSU would counter and are just playing the game. You don't try and lure a coach already ma I ng 5 million from another top flight school with one shot and hope it goes well. Comeon, wise up.

This. We are talking about pro negotiators here. They knew there would be a counter from FSU

Team I agree with you. People around here think the people behind the scenes are idiots but damn those are people who got to that position for a reason and it's not because they are dumb.

The one major booster (not lsu) I have worked with was a total egomaniac but is as sharp as they come and knows how to play the game

Negotiating for a new job and negotiating for a pay raise are two entirely different things. This is probably for a pay raise for Fisher just like Miles got during the Arkansas courtship few years ago. And his agent is the driving force since it is more more $$$ for him. His agent cannot get a pay raise unless his client - Fisher - does too. It sure sounds like Alleva bought the whole package....and LSU is "paying" for it with the bad press....

You think jimbo is worth more than 6 per?


I don't think any of the coaches are worth the multi millions a year they are payed. However, if LSU truly was after Fisher then yes, the powers that be have to believe he is worth that much and be willing to pay it. It's the nature of the business these days unfortunately.

I don't believe that the lsu boosters/ad could be that retarded to not expect a match/raise. No one knows shite.

the reason this is all BS is that one man is not fired and the other man is still coaching his team. For chit to be released tells me it is speculation by people pretending to be in the know

I thought someone said LSU did offer again. It was 6.5 million with various incentives of over 1 million putting their possible salary up there with Saban or past him depending on what he does here.

a lot of times when one person is the name that everyone keeps hearing becomes nonsense when another coach is finally introduced. Someone, such as Jimmy Sexton may be keeping this chit alive with Jimbo for financial gains.

LSU has nothing to offer back, so now they're in a tailspin trying to figure out what to do.


Ask Les for a loan?
