"Last week, defensive coordinator Dave Aranda left the football program after three acclaimed seasons to take the same job at LSU, a step many fans viewed as a lateral move"

Their message boards weren't calling this a lateral move at all, but whatever. You also have a pretty low threshold for being "disrespected"

That's how you know we got a good one, when the other school and its fans get salty about it.

He went from being a DC to being a DC. Is our DC position something like a Co-head coach or something? Why wouldn't it be considered a lateral move? Is it because he's moving to a program that traditionally has better talent available than his previous school?

Lateral moves usually don't entail an $800,000 a year raise.

No one disrespected LSU.

Quit looking for fights where none. Exist.

I think a pretty strong argument was made in the comments... What the author of the article failed to mention is that schools in the Big 10 typically sponsor more team sports than those in the SEC. Therefore, even if the athletics programs are Top 10 nationally for revenue that money is being spread out to more programs leaving fewer dollars to pay top-tier assistants just compensation.

I think the OP overstated the fact that the author showed disrespect for LSU in a poorly-researched article.

Met a badger fan last night in St Louis who was insistent we over paid for aranda. All I could do was laugh in his face. That's why they will always be Wisconsin.

Interesting article, telling in some of its misinformation and shaky reasoning. frick Tom Oates. Aranda just tripled his salary and will now compete in an athlete-rich region of the country. Boo. Hoo. Wisky.

Their AD is the 4th highest paid AD in college. Talk about being a hypocrite
