Depends on the source, pre internet days, etc but at least 2 or 3 people said no. No one was excited when he was hired, really knew who he was, etc.

1. It wasn’t pre internet
2. LSU wasn’t turned down by multiple people
3. Plenty of people knew who he was and were excited

He wasn’t expected to be available because it had always been assumed his next stop was the NFL. Emmert was talking to Sexton about someone else and once he found out Saban was in play he was the focus.
