Spurrier was announced in November a month before Saban announced he was leaving, but Skip still wanted him

Dolphins owner stroked a half million dollar personal check to Saban's wife to furnish their new house. This was before Saban even accepted the job. Skip using this as an example of there was nothing LSU could have done to keep Saban. He didn't want to leave but the dolphins weren't taking no for an answer.

Can anyone leave cliff notes for those of us who can't tune in right now?

Some of the highlights:

- Confirmed interviews with Nutt and Petrino in 2004.
- George W Bush personally called Skip to pitch RC Slocum as HC.
- Reached out to Frank Beamer
- Skip wanted Spurrier but felt like it would be a tough sell to the board and fanbase. Skip thought he still could have gotten him away from SCar.
- Skip wanted a coach that would be at LSU for a long time. Miles having young kids made him an attractive candidate.
- Saban didn't want to leave but told Skip if he turned down the best offer ever from an NFL franchise then he would never get another one.
- Saban dragged his feet for over a month which hurt the search
- Miles turned down Michigan when Hoke got the job and Michigan was offering more money

Skip still going

Yep that the board members who were not paying attention last season began to take notice and Wisky game brought all the attention onto Les.
