Wisconsin Preparing for A&M to Make A Run at DC Jim Leonhard

According to Wisconsin's 247 site.
This was his first year as DC, and Wisconsin had a top 5 defense. 2nd year overall as a coach. He currently makes about $600k a year. He is a Badger alum, so it would take a big number to pull him away.

You think? I think he'd probably leave for 800k, unless Wisconsin matches.
ETA: 200k is a lot when you're only making 600k.

He may be an alum, but he is a DC, not a HC. It probably would not take as big a number as you think.

Here's what's happening: they pushed for Aranda 3 times and failed, so they're going to his replacement at Wisconsin. "Can you talk to Dave for us?"

Ah. The Wisconsin born former walk-on who already made over $9 million in his previous career? Yeah he seems pretty likely to leave his Alma mater who gave him his first crack at coaching.
He's already made a lot of money. Wisconsin will give him a raise. I don't see him pursuing other gigs unless he wants a head job which isn't likely to happen soon.

I was told by the rantards yesterday he would never leave Wisconsin. I suggested him if Aranda left. Now people believe he will leave.

It's not about the money for Jim. He hates it there and wants out. Amirite?

I have no doubt he is very loyal to Wisconsin. But I have a hard time seeing an assistant try to strong arm Barry Alvarez to a salary over $1 million.

Already? They still haven't extended a formal offer to Corey Raymond, Dennis Johnson, Pete Jenkins, Tommy Moffit, Dr. Sam Nader, or Sharon Lewis yet.

Would be a solid hire.
Also helps LSU to get a good look to see how he performs in the SEC to determine if we want to take him from y'all down the road after Aranda goes to the NFL.

Joe Alleva is single handedly running all the coaches off from Wisconsin

What did he make his money in?
Posted on 1/4/18 at 1:01 pm to crazyLSUstudent
He played in the NFL

I think this is another uphill battle for the Aggies. He's a Wisconsin native and alumnus and they are also projected to be a top playoff contender next season. If WIsky makes the playoffs and he has a good showing on defense, he'll most likely be a popular head coaching candidate somewhere.

Yea, it's more than that.

At this rate the Aggies won't have a coordinator before 2nd signing day.
