We offered right at $2 million per year. LSU has to go 25% higher to get their guy and we weren’t willing to do that much for an assistant, even if it was the one Jimbo really really wanted. We could have afforded to go higher yes, but that doesn’t make it a good idea


Spin baby! Yall have been turned down by 3 DCs and aranda 3 times. Not a good look for a program that has never won anything.

Yes, they could. I believe Aranda played the hot hand, but decided to stay with O, LSU, and BR, and got a $600,000 raise for doing nothing except entertaining a bidding war with A&M.

False. Aranda is the only coach we made a serious run at and have a job offer to.

If it’s really the person you want and money isn’t a concern you do. I laughed when you took Chavis from us cause he never was that good but aranda and a few on the defensive staff are the only good coaches we got right now. Losing aranda would of hurt and made us look like A&M for at least the next 5 years
