We are LSU - we can afford to hire someone who is a proven, successful athletic director at another institution.

Meh - folks in coaching circles knew who he was and that he was an up and comer - and certainly already proven successful as a head coach at a P5 school.
I mean, he wasn't a coordinator when we hired him, even an NFL one, for example - he was a "no shite" head coach.
So, we can hire a "no shite" AD. I like Thomas as that associated AD with an eye towards perhaps him getting a job at a smaller school in the south and be LSU's AD of the future. Sort of like my plan for Frank Wilson to be the next LSU head coach (he won't be in the market the next time we change, though, I don't think.)
