To your last post about your "5 step plan" I think that your plan was to hire Mark Few, because it was too great to pass up. I'd love Few too... here's a hint. You're crazy. Few has been run at by every major program looking for someone big-time and he's passed. A few years ago, he passed on UCLA... UCLA. Does LSU have more basketball tradition, facilities money, etc. as UCLA? No offense to PMAC, Pistol, Dale Brown and Brady, but ...:redface:
Here's the article.

As for paying someone $$$, I DO agree that's what will get a great coach to come here, but let's be real, there's not enough money to get Few (when you'd have to pay him more than Les Miles) or any other "big-time" coach, when LSU has fans like you who don't show up to the PMAC and bitch about how the Tigers winning the SEC is not good enough.
I'll keep this one simple, b/c your well-thought posts (hire JP?) are showing that you really haven't thought through what it takes to get one of these guys, nor are you credible to talk about it. Brady's salary is something like the 6th best in the SEC (believe me he'll probaby get a raise if he wins the SEC this year), yet he's competing for the SEC championship. If you want Skip to pay a basketball coach DOUBLE what Brady is making (which would JUST get you to what Billy D is making and be STILL way below what Tubby makes), I suggest you start putting some of your betting winnings into Skip's coffers so you can make a run at Mark Few... :hihi:
