Why are some of you acting like there’s a college coach salary cap?

Who cares if it’s 2.0 million or 1.5 million? Pelini should be judged on his results on the field, not his contract. That’s where LSU is as a program right now.

TAF donations are up
Booster donations are up
TV contract money are up

$500,000 is a drop in the bucket if Pelini was Orgeron’s guy

Because $2,000,000 is a lot to pay a coordinator?

you just outlined reasons why it does matter to fans who's TAF donations are being used in such ways.

I donate to TAF and I’m a season ticket holder

Do you want LSU and Orgeron to coast on this title for 4 years? No? Okay. Pay the man what he wants if you want him

People are idiots. We could win the title the next 5 years and people would still think O was the wrong hire and that Pelini is a bad coach. People are just stupid man.

But I’ll go and respond to your post

It's what the market will bear. It's ridiculous college HCs make millions, but they do. If we got a guy for $500k, people would bitch because we went from $2.5mm to $500k in coordinators.

I don’t see a problem with the salary, if he’s the guy O wants.

Well you can tell who the new tiger fans are. They act like Bo came out of nowhere and never had success in his career.

And this team is bringing in a lot of money for the university. Just wait until the enrollment spikes again because of the championship.

In a way yes. I’m not saying I’m necessarily against the salary. I’m saying why the optics of it have some people taken aback.

$2,000,000 for a DC who was currently coaching an Fcs program appears to be an over reaction.

OK big money.

Imagine caring what another man makes. It's not your money. Get over it.

And it's a half mill less than we were paying Aranda.
