Seems to me Chief's relationships went south just this season and he was in need of more love and attention. His flirtation with aggie and Sumlin went too fast for him.

He'll improve aggie significantly but Sumlin and Chief will have to take them to division championships before Chief gets more love and attention than he received in Death Valley.

LSU needs to get the Office of Bursar to collect the money owed by Chavis, they were relentless in getting my tuition payments

If those reports are tru that Chavis and Sumlin talked the morning of the Notre Dame game about him being DC,we should indeed force him/them to pay up.

Sounds like he is facing a 4th quarter 3rd and Chavis in his own career. Hope he loses.

I would imagine how aTm is trying to structure the buyout. If they pay it for him, it must be considered taxable income to him, correct?

Lol at Cheif, the dumb frick is getting hammered for the amount that basically represents the extra money he is making.

What Alleva said in that presser is gold! Imagine the circumstances where chief and aTm were all smiles and chest out for this caper, only to have alleva go national with a big "frick you" announcing there is a 400k check to be paid. Our lawyers were on this WAY before the bowl when rumors surfaced about sumlin approaching chief.

Lol, I LOVE it!

How many did Chief take us to in all the years he was here?

Wait till College Station gets a dose of 3rd and Chavis and the aptly named 2 minute DRILL.

I could be wrong but there's something over there that just breeds mediocrity. I see them being something like ole piss and moo state typically are like.

aTm will find a way to pay the money.

33,333.33/mos. for a year is a drop in the bucket for that school.

Chavis did us a huge favor leaving when he did. He gave LSU plenty of time to hire coaching replacements before National Signing Day, February 4, 2015.

If he had waited until February 1 to resign in order to avoid the $400,000 buyout, LSU would not have had any defensive leadership in place on signing day and several of our top defensive commits would have gone elsewhere!

It may be worth it to forgive the $400,000 buyout in return for his leaving early.

I appreciate what Chavis did for LSU while he was the DC. Now that he is gone, and more importantly to me, the way he left, adios Chief. I won't pull for him to have a decent defense at A&M or wish him luck while he's there. Chavis, Sumlin and Texas A&M can all go jump in the Gulf of Mexico for all I care.

It would really be a shame if hs defense got the score run up on them in Death Valley next year. I wouldn't mind a game like Arky in 2011
