Less than what? LSU is paying him about $2.5 million more than any other school was offering him.


Paid him about 2.5M$ less than Herman would have cost. He has two very good coordinators and got a very good recruiting coordinator. What is the knock on the guy? His record at Ole Miss? Nobody has proven capable of winning there since they fired Cutcliffe!

That's because there was actually a market for Herman. He is good so other people wanted to hire him. Orgeron didn't turn down higher paying jobs to take this one as the other poster implied. He had no other options near this level.

Actually he is the only one that proved to be incapable of winning anything. The issue wasn't that he didn't produce championship level results at Ole Miss. Everyone understands they are Ole Miss for a reason. The issue was that he is literally the worst coach they've had in a generation, if not longer.
