re: Who knows the details of Spurrier almost becoming LSU coach

I used to think that Spurrier wasn't a known commodity at the time until I saw the 30 for 30 documentary about him and the one about the USFL.
After watching the Bo Rien documentary a few weeks ago and hearing that LSU also pursued Bobby Bowden at one point, it blows my mind that we didn't hire Spurrier. It also blows my mind that we weren't willing to invest in big name coaches until Nick Saban.

I don't know if you can even consider him a big name at that point, he had some success but LSU didn't initially pursue him, Sexton contacted LSU.

Nick Saban was not a big name coach till we helped make him one!
