Wouldn't it have been cheaper to just pay Herman the extra $1MM?

Texas wanted Herman, Texas was going to get Herman. We can't outbid them.

The problem was the lack of a real plan B.

I think Herman was always going to Texas, so I doubt it would’ve mattered.

You’re under the impression we really wanted Herman. O was always the guy, it was rigged from the start.

I agree. We could have locked down Herman after the Florida game and even announced it. We waited until the end and Alleva ran the clock out and took zero.

You right about that bilj

This goes back to Jordy and Derek openly lobbying for Ed to get the DL job, then bash the shite out of Les, then Jordy bang the drum to hire O

Was all planned out. I really believe that.

Herman was choosing Texas. And Texas would pay whatever we would.

Herman was always going to Texas. LSU was just a pawn in getting Texas admins off their arse and offering checks.

Herman was never going to come to LSU at any point.

Texas didn't have an opening until ESPN announced Herman to LSU. Had we locked Herman down after the Florida dame, it would have been over.

After Strong was fired, we couldn't compete. We aren't Texas A$M or anything. We just po LSU.

Why ppl cant accept this is beyond me. The day he was hired, his wife was posting pics of them at UT when they met ect. It was always Texas.

We can’t lock Herman down if he’s waiting to see what happens at Texas. Both sides have to sign the contract lol

Think of all of the money LSU saved from not conducting a real coaching search
