re: Tigerrag: Aranda's offer is north of $3M

aTm is playing this about as well as you can play it.

1) If Aranda bites you have pretty much blown this staff up one year later.
2) If LSU counters, you have made them pay premium numbers for DC whose salary is nearly identical to the HC.
3) There is blood in water here. It's no mystery and the tone of this board alone proves it. Just by offering it will cause turmoil alone.
4) aTm has not beaten LSU since entering the SEC. The move strengthens them and hamstrings us, to say the least.
5) If they don't get Aranda they attract another big name DC with this offer.
