That's a good angle. He has a better chance to be good at LSU, regardless of salary. Sucking at Texas will make him look like less of a commodity.

Of course, that means he will eventually want to go to the NFL. That's one advantage Jimbo has. We know he's not going to the NFL. If he's successful, he'll likely be here until he retires.
