There are going to be a lot of major programs chasing after him. And he is a member of Mensa International (meaning he is VERY smart).



Meh, Mensa is overrated. It's a bunch of people who do well on standardized tests. You don't find too many Nobel laureates or people who make their mark in other intellectual pursuits. It's the guy who made a 34 on his ACT and dropped out of college as a sophomore who's in Mensa.

The answer is in the $4-5 million range. You have to play it like poker. You may have a winning hand, but if the other guy is raising you like crazy, there comes a time when you have to fold.

You start with a question: are you interested in coaching the LSU football team, and if not, how much would we have to pay you to be interested?

I have a feeling Tom Herman won't come to LSU, but he'll likely be the best coach available in the off-season.

Only 2 coaches are making 7 million, but hey maybe he is worth it.
"Maybe" isn't worth 7M/yr. I''m thinking 5M/yr + incentives, but you don't give a guy who's only been a HC 2 years top 5 money.

Mike Dantoni, the head coach of the Houston Rockets?
Or Mark Dantonio, the head coach of the Michigan State state football team?
