Why are people shocked at the overpay? Did they forget who the AD is?

Woody overpays for everything. That’s how he convinces people to come.

He also is the one that gave House an extension after one not awful year.

That said, I think Baker will be a really good hire and help this team re-establish its defense’s identity.

Mizzou was about to pay him $2 million so if you wanted him what we paid was the price. It wasn’t over paying that was the market for him.

Get overbid and we are cheap/woody sucks. Pay too much, man that’s a lot for so and so… if the big money donors will write the check, why do you care?

Who the frick cares

It’s not my money

It’s not your money

It’s rich people’s money.

They made the decision.

Don’t like it? Sounds like you need to find another team to root for.

It is weird make someone the highest paid coordinator when they’re not statistically a top 10 coordinator. It’s a good hire, just financially weird.

Who said we overpaid? Got kids coming in on 7 figure deals straight out of high school. This is the new norm.

They probably had to offer more money than he was making. I personally don't care how much LSU pays its coaches. It's not my money

The entire state of Louisiana has a SNAP recipient rate of 19%. For reference, Texas has a state SNAP recipient rate of 12.2%, Arkansas has a rate of 10.9%, Mississippi has a rate of 13.5% in the state. This means Louisiana has the highest rate in the region for SNAP recipient rate.

They can hold their head with pride. They have the highest paid coaching staff in the nation.

Overpay? Haha. If you want someone to win championships, you pay idiot. Yeah, offer 1 million when Missouri pays him $2 million.

Who gives a shite? You giving to bayou traditions? 20 big boosters fund 95% of our collective

Woody resets the market and $2.5M will look like a steal in a few years. You bet your arse we'd pay $2.5 to have a top 35 defense last season. We'd be getting ready to play Monday night

It’s not Scott Woodward. It’s what the market is dictating for a top notch DC.

Woody reminds me of Biden, they love to spend other people’s money.

We didn’t over pay his salary is right on par with all the other DCs in the SEC! Good lord yall complain about everything. If we didn’t pony up the money and Sabin got him in a year yall would all be griping then about how we didn’t spend the money ??
