re: Raise and contract extension for Johnny Jones

quote:

I'd say he was quite obviously worthy of being paid higher than 12th in the SEC, but I'm not 100% sure on the timing here. I really think this season will tell us a lot about the direction we're really headed, so the logical choice for me would have been to address his contract after this year. When was his last contract set to be up?

maybe LSU thinks doing it now will prevent them from spending more on a raise at the end of the season
