You think Saban is using THAT as his recruiting pitch? Doubtful



No kidding.

I'm pretty sure that he's saying "LSU hasn't beat Bama since 2011."

Why don't we do something about that instead of a damn contract?

Do you think O could promote from within and replace Aranda like Dabo replaces Cam Morris and have the same functioning Defense?

That’s sorta where the model differs.

Maybe because those people don't exist and you are creating what is a known as a "strawman".

you are comparing South Carolina football to LSU.


I'm comparing business practices of two SEC schools. You want another example outside the SEC. Jim Harbaugh has done no better than Ed Orgeron at Michigan, and he received a raise from $5MM/year to $9MM after two 10-3 seasons. And spare me the Harbaugh had done more at previous stops than Orgeron. Michigan is a top 10 program and almost doubled his salary for two 10-3 seasons. So, like I said, it's standard business practice and you have provided nothing whatsoever to refute that. I, however, have provided numerous examples to support my position.

prove me wrong. Lane Kiffin got a 10 year extension after one season at FAU

well they do, sorry

The problem here is you don't like what the standard practice is. I've already said I don't either. But you have been completely unable to show how it hasn't become standard practice (because you can't)

Well look at West Virginia’s hiring of Troy coach Neal Brown this month. They hit a home run.

Has Neal Brown coached a game at WVU yet? Maybe let him win there before calling it a homerun hire.

Until Aranda leaves and we make a hire that fails, I’m not using y’alls hypothetical against O. Have fun with that though.

O fired an OC, and is replacing the PGC he hired to help replace him, and we keep giving Aranda raises.

Dabo promotes his WR and RB coaches and didn’t miss a beat.

If you’re goig to make the Dabo comparison I feel Like the fact that O isn’t great at hiring coordinators or that dabo’s offense has succeeded even after Morris left has to be a factor in that comparison

Uh Kirby did receive a raise after his second season. And I'd be shocked if Herman isn't given one this offseason.

Les Miles received multiple raises at LSU. Where exactly do you think you're going with this?

What’s your point?. You’ve admitted you like the Brady hire. Keep paying Aranda as long as you need to. Give Brady the OC if he works out and E retires. What’s the problem?

you got me on Kirby. he did get one after year 2. in which he won the East. and the conference. and a playoff game. and took bama to OT in the national title.

but I am sure it was done because of needing to provide stability to the program.


why would you be shocked if Herman is not given one? He was given a 5 year deal. He is 2 years into it. There is 3 years left on it.

Miles didnt get his first raise/extension until after 2007.

because, as I've stated numerous times, it's standard practice. He just won the Sugar Bowl. I think he will.

False, Les received a raise after his very first season. He was given a pay increase in July of 2006.

He did receive another raise in 2007

I have a question, do you just make stuff up and hope it's true before you post?

When aranda leaves see how successful he is.

Syracuse wouldn't even interview him. Let that sink in.

We sorta are loving a guy who is riding Les Miles DC and just taking shots at the OC.

It’s not the most sustainable or efficient model.

And again realistically I agree With your basic premise. If it works who cares.
But just like under miles, I think We’ve been held back because there are a lot of times where it hasn’t worked.

He's under contract through 2021. Wait until after next season, and then discuss a possible extension


YOUR AN IDIOT LSUgrad1998!!!!

First he has earned the extension and RAISE! LSU hasn't had double digit wins since 2012, LSU went to its first New Years 6 bowl and we are about to lock in a top 5 recruiting class, and most importantly Orgeron has repaired the fence around Louisiana very well in 2019 and if we get Sospher and Lee you can say he has fixed the fence around Louisiana because right now 2020 in-state top recruits are all trending to LSU. ax

No make no mistake about it, Orgeron has earned a raise and extension which is why he is getting one! Look for it to be a two year extension thru 2023 and he will probably get a raise to somewhere around $5mil to $5.5mil per year.
