re: LSU is going to make Jimbo Fisher the highest paid coach in CFB

If you're going to spend a ton of money, spend it wisely, and from a business standpoint as well as on-field play.

Compare Saban and Miles- not the playing style, but the business sense of it: both coaches won big here, both won national titles. Saban was "on the ladder" here, he was always seen as the next NFL guy, and he left after 5 years. Miles- you had to fire him to get rid of him. Both got big contracts for their success, but because Miles wasn't going anywhere, we saw his salary drop back down to about average, while Saban commanded top dollar to keep him.

Apply this to Herman and Jimbo- Herman's also "on the ladder", and if he brings us back to the top, he's still going to be a young guy that the NFL will chase.
Jimbo seems like he's not looking at the NFL, and if he comes here from Fla St, it'll be because he wants to, and (like Miles turned out), he likely will stay a long time, either retire here or be run off.

If you're going to spend $15+ million to get someone in, get the guy you can keep.
