    So what makes you think he would come to LSU for $2.5?

    I'd like to think that LSU is much better place than Houston, the right guy would probably give up a half million for the challenge and know that if he was confident in his skills and actually made a difference the rest of that money would be there after a season or two.

    Money is irrelevant. If you want him and it takes 5m you pay him. Its monopoly money. This was the horrible mindset that didnt want to pay Saban 1m back in the day. Luckily they did.

    Money is not irrelevant. Maybe if it's a top notch guy, and maybe if Herman were to come in and prove himself.

    How long since you have visited the real world?

    If it hadn't been for Mark Emmert Joe Dean wouldn't have gone higher than $900k and the past would have been changed.

    Yeah I know... The agents have to get their cut too.

    Furthermore, part of the reason why the real world is the way it is though is because of the ridiculous amounts of money being spent like its Monopoly money.

    Only 7 NCAA coaches make 5 or more.

    It's not Monopoly money. It's TV money. As long as TV fuels the fire there is money to burn.

    Might as well be LSU.
