I agree. 1.5 for Minter is a far better deal for LSU.
I'm rootin for Baker though.
Our AD only know one way to negotiate, and that is just to offer waaaaaaay more money than anyone else. He has done it with every hire. He has made some awful deals for his university......A&M owes Jimbo
$77 million to do nothing. And if he would have been at LSU at the time, that is exactly the position LSU would be in right now.

Based on throttling a bunch of Big10 teams with anemic offenses?


It's amazing to me how people just ignore this point. The top 4 defenses in the country this year were all Big 10 teams. Either that's an incredible coincidence, or Big 10 offenses sucked arse. I'm going with the latter.

I never get why people care about the pay of coaches. Is it coming out of your pay check? Who cares what we pay our coaches?

It’s not about the pay. It’s about him being the highest paid when there are better DCs out there

He makes about the same as Kevin Steele, Pete Golding, Tommy Reese . The pay is right on par for Job.

I’m glad we didn’t same old re-tred guys that always get hire in the SEC.

Ohio state DC makes the same. How we put the faith in BK.

but we need to recruit better hs kids and transfers on defense


This is why we paid him. He has GREAT recruiting ties in LA and surrounding areas. After all, he recruited Harold Perkins to LSU in the first place. He will bring in the recruits.

How good is Minter really? Didn't they steal signs?

Minter isn’t leaving Michigan for another DC job. He is very loyal to the Harbaugh’s. John gave him a job in the NFL. John got Minter his DC job at Vandy.

It was a proving ground for him. When McDonald left Michigan to go back to the Ravens Minter was the first call Jim made. He ain’t leaving those guys.

Word is we could’ve gotten God for $4.5M. Seems we’re always settling.

Maybe the Michigan DC is happy where he is at in the Big 10?

Just trust BK

I'm happy with the hire. And like an earlier post read: BK has a hell of a lot more riding on this hire than any of us.

BUT, do you know what's even more exciting?
Now we get to see what a good DC can do with Perkins!
