Must pay LSU 50% of the amount remaining on his contract or roughly $1.4M.

Contract says this for any SEC team or any D1 team within 500 miles of BTR (Austin is 441 away).

He ain't going anywhere. Loves his returning players and Texas was near the bottom on D in Big 12.

King is probably salivating at the thought of LSU getting paid that buyout

I think he stays because he has aspirations to be a NFL DC, he can get to the NFL quicker by staying here for another 2-3 years. If he goes to Texas it'll be another year or 2 before he starts putting up numbers like he did this year.

Texas would absolutely pay this

shite Alleva saved them at least $1.4M per year by acting like a teenage girl and refusing to get into a bidding war for Herman

I just don't see why a DC would go from lsu to Texas. It isn't the 90s

I thought it was pretty much confirmed that Aranda was staying? I don't see why he would want to go to Texas where he has to start completely over and teach a whole new scheme when he just got done doing that. And he has way more talent to work with here.

Keep telling yourself that. I would say there is about an 85%+ probability that he is the DC at texass within 3-4 weeks.

Some of you have no idea how very little $1.4M actually is in college football nowadays... particularly at texass. The buyout is nothing... like a piece of scotch tape over the door to keep a burglar out. NOTHING

NFL jobs, talent, etc... NONE of that matters. Might as well prepare yourselves.

Seems as though there would be a clause in his contract that he could pursue other opportunities in the event the head coach that hired him gets fired. There isn't any guarantee that a new coach would retain him so why would he be penalized for not wanting to work with the new head coach? I think a buyout would only cover the school in the event he wants to leave for a better job on his own accord.
