"So what’s to say LSU, Florida — they’re traditionally the best jobs, but are they the best jobs now, relatively speaking, based on how they’ve adapted to the external circumstances that really affect your ability to be successful in college football?”LINK

Been discussed. I don't get the obsession with Saban. He does not have LSU's best interest in mind. He hasn't ever since he left.

Why would he? I don't give a shite about my former employer. Seems like he has always been respectful to LSU IMHO for 20 years.

Can you please produce the reputable source that suggests this, because all I’ve heard from him is the exact opposite

So because he's telling you like it is and being truthful you think he has some agenda against LSU? Nothing he said is incorrect. Just because you don't want to hear it doesn't mean he's out to get LSU. He has been very respectful to us. LSU is arguably no longer a tier 1 job anymore due to this being a pure money sport now. Not poor but maybe next step behind tier 1 so tier 2. Which is good enough to win you championships but not like in the past. Until LSU has a Phil Knight or Saudi Princes funding the program it is what it is right now. Some deep pocket boosters but really can't touch the top 5 in NCAA right now. Not even close.

bullshite. Not to the extent that he would come back but he won his first championship here. Regardless of what some coaches say that one is always the one that means the most.

He wouldn’t have said publicly that he regretted leaving LSU otherwise.

Exactly. He’s been saying the same thing in the news all week

Basically telling LSU, you better be spending a shite ton of money on the roster every year if you want me to entertain coming back
