Isn’t he just an analyst?

Why empty the bank?

When is the last time LSU has paid average for a coach?

It would appear to me that we’re paying way above average and have attracted subpar coaches. But sure, let’s keep doing the same thing and expect different results.

He should be LSU's top target as DC. Offer him $2.5 M per season
based on what? Is this just another name the board just fall in love with, with no real research? If he’s so elite why is he just an analyst for Bert at Illinois? You would think a major program like Michigan would’ve scooped him considering he played for Harbaugh Brother. Also no matter the D coordinator Wisco is in the top half in the country on defense because of that ball control offense. If you want a guy who can recruit and be a Defensive coordinator I think Jimmy Lake should be there top choice, Washington pump out a lot of good players when he was calling the defense under Chris Peterson.

Paid Matt House $2 Mil per season and look where we are. We can pay him if he deserves it with a raise but we don't need to be dishing out big salaries to coaches anymore. We have been burned by it too many times at this point.
