aTm is playing this about as well as you can play it.

1) If Aranda bites you have pretty much blown this staff up one year later.
2) If LSU counters, you have made them pay premium numbers for DC whose salary is nearly identical to the HC.
3) There is blood in water here. It's no mystery and the tone of this board alone proves it. Just by offering it will cause turmoil alone.
4) aTm has not beaten LSU since entering the SEC. The move strengthens them and hamstrings us, to say the least.
5) If they don't get Aranda they attract another big name DC with this offer.
This is a money game, and LSU brought eggs to the table.

Yes, but the star is bright. You take a chance on that over trying to band-aid the current situation.

Unfortunately, Alleva doesn't have that foresight and will likely double down on the current direction.

An unknown with potential is light years better than a known and proven failure.

i know where LSU stands in coordinator pay. but we sure as shite went to dollar general for the head coach position.



You are saying LSU isn't willing to pay. Is that true? Where does LSU rank from a staff perspective?

I'd love to see him go & watch it blow up in Aggie face

Again

Because you KNOW it will. This is A&M and history isn't on their side.

All that money, they'd want a NC by year 2 or 3, that ain't happening in College Station.

If this number is true then a college Coordinator is going to be making the same amount per year as some Professional head coaches.

Let that sink in.

Just like you - I don't know, but there out there. Wisconsin found one when Aranda left there, why can't LSU if he leaves.

You think having a Jimbo and Aranda combo isnt going to work because its A&M?

Whats your reasoning besides history isnt on their side?

He’s not worth 3 Mil. Let him leave if that’s what he wants. In a year or two when we replace coach O. We can hire Aranda for HC for 3.5.

When I win the $460 mil powerball tonight, I'll
donate 10 mil to buy out O and promote Aranda to head coach, and donate another 10 mil to get rid of that cuckhold AD Aleeva....

I have laughed several times in the past hour. Not sure what other emotions i can come up with at this point, without getting fired from my job.

Keep on thinking that. If they have done nothing else it adds to the self-inflicted turmoil that our fanbase has created.

aTm is trying to Debo us. I don't see their two passing attempts at him not at the least causing him to get a substantial raise out of this. They know valued he is or they wouldn't be coming after him.

I love Aranda, but no coordinator is worth double what their counterparts unless they're that much better.

Aranda isn't that much better.

Oh well, they can gave him. 3 million is too damned much for a DC.
