I was made aware of this by an A&M booster who was in Woodys suite and people laughed it off and the thread quickly got anchored. Jimbo was very much in play until about Wednesday and then sites were set on Riley.


the boosters knew jack shite this entire process, why would you think they would be right about this?

woody kept this thing on the down low


You dont offer Jimbo $15+M, then offer Riley $12.5M, and then FINALLY get BRIAN KELLY for $9.5M

thats ridiculous

I'm not buying this. Why go that high for Jimbo? There is no way this was happening in late November.
I contend that Woodward had talks with him but I don't buy the assertion that in late Nov he was willing to dump that kind of money on Jimbo. Does that mean LSU beating A&M was the deciding factor and then he had to rush and get Brian Kelly?
Not buying it. Woodward would not breath a word of this to anybody if this had any truth. He wouldn't want this to get out there.

McMurphy also wrote an article on the coaching search earlier where he claimed “sources” told him that Mel Tucker remained a primary target for the LSU coaching job. Because this whole process revealed how so many people claiming to have scoop had it wrong, unless someone cites exactly where the information came from, i will consider information from my FedEx guy to be just as legit.

, and you can convince me he's a better fit for LSU and even a better coach than Kelly in some ways.

There’s no way on earth anyone could ever convince me of this. Jameis made jimbo. He’s been completely mediocre without him

Action network is equivalent to barstool sports. They pay him and Rovell a ton of money to get clicks. Doesn’t matter if the story is fact or made up.

I don't get the love Scott has for Jimbo! He's a good coach but for $13mil?yr, he better win natty's every year and Jimbo isn't doing that no matter where he goes!

McTurdski: LSU was prepared to offer JIMBO 8 years/$125 million.

Me : Well if LSU was prepared and never did why is this a story. Its almost like McTurdski made this up .

This is probably A&M putting this info out there during recruiting. Trying to validate they have the better coach and lsu didn’t want their coach.
