He was offered the HC postion at Kentucky at about the same time LSU promoted him to HC. A couple of more times when the Kentucky job came open there were rumors that they wanted him.

Before the Aggies hired Emmory Bellard,the godfather of option football, they offered Mac the job. LSU tore up his contract and he signed what was to be his last LSU contract.

In those days, SEC teams did not hire other SEC HC's. It was considered a breech of conference ethics and was not done. coaches salaries were significantly lower also and pretty close to the same. i'm not sure, but i think lsu hiring dinardo from vandy might have been a first.
