Why do people care about how much rich boosters pay the HC?

7 mill is unrealistic anymore in order to win. You get what you pay for holds true with coaching as well.

Seeing as neither I nor anyone on this board are the ones paying it, no I would not care. Get the best guy you can regardless of cost imo.
It perplexes me that people get their panties in a wad over how much we'd pay for a coach.

no

That would be the only offer I make to Herman though. If he says no, you move on immediately.

Nope i wouldn't as long as a big buyout is attached.
this is really the key, if he wins, hes worth 7 and more, but we cant get into some kind of sumlin situation where were forced to sit here and watch him lose.

I would take Harbaugh all day over Meyer. Both are lousy personalities, but I think Harbaugh is a much better coach. Dont like either of them as a person though.

He's pretty special. I don't think you can find another "great" coach that lost to the powerhouses of Navy and SMU in the same year. Talk about not motivating a team.

I really don't care, it's not my money so hell yeah if LSU thinks that's what it takes to get Herman then I am all for it.

Whatever it takes. Herman is the #1 choice right now. We'll see what happens.

Any number .. other than 7 million ..

I am not quite ready for the L7MillionU next year when Bama beats us yet again.

Sorry, was the first thing that entered my mind .. yes, pay top notch to get top notch.

As a matter of principle I don't like it. Sports coaches shouldn't be making $7million IMO but that is today's market thanks to bama and Michigan so if that's what it takes sure pay him.

Just for a matter of context it was just two coaches ago where we were CRAZY for paying nick saban 1 million

I would be incredibly excited if LSU could somehow get Herman. If I was making the decisions, I would take the chance to get him even if it meant having to pay up to 7M.

It is easy to see that he is at the very least a good enough coach to keep us towards the top of the SEC, but he seem to have a lot of ambition that could prove to be just what LSU needs.

I think that LSU needs to either go big or go home. We paid a lot to get saben, and if we want another good coach we are going to have to pony up again.

If Alleva is going to balk at 7M for Jimbo or Herman, he's in the wrong damn business.
