For the most proven head coach available when the time came, Sexton had the deal laid on the table and LSU walked away.
Was it because of the Years of the deal or the Salary? Maybe a little of both.
But the truth is undeniable -- Sexton had the deal on the table and LSU walked away. We will never know for sure why.
I can argue that logically it was because LSU didn't want to spend the money. You argue that wasn't the reason and it was because of "10 years". Well, time is money, so, maybe I'm right after all.
It's all settled now and there's no use in arguing much further. All I have to say is that, for whatever reason, when the time came for a proven HC to be hired, LSU was either unwilling or unable to close the deal. We now can be fairly certain that Jimbo would have come to LSU for the right deal.
There's no reason to believe that this is a fluke or isolated incident. IMHO, it is a characteristic of how the LSU powers that be do business. That's just my 2 cents.

Frankly, I think LSU knew it was being used by Jimbo to leverage FSU and by Herman for Texas.
Jimbo has only gone to A&M because
a) because of the stupid $, but MOSTLY because Jimbo was seeing the handwriting on the wall at FSU ... his relationship deteriorated a lot this year .. ad next year gone the same way .. Jimbo would be in trouble.
He just bought himself at least e3 years at $ 7.5MM

But others argue that Time was the main factor in LSU walking away from Sexton's table.
Time is Money. So, maybe Money is indeed part of the reason.
There is some reason. We can all speculate, but, we will never know the whole truth about why LSU walked away from Sexton's negotiating table.
And by no means do I intend to insinuate that I know that Jimbo would be more successful at LSU than Coach O. That is complete speculation and I won't guess.
But it is good for everyone to know that LSU is willing to pay the highest salary for a football coaching staff. That is a point that needs to be emphasized.

Here's the main point for you to take away from this debate:
Back then, in the recent past, after it was clear that Coach Miles was out and that a new HC would be hired -- it looks like Sexton put a deal on the negotiating table that would have brought a proven HC winner to replace Coach Miles -- coach goes by the name Jimbo.
LSU walked away from the table.
