I gotta say, all things considered it seems like a lateral move (at best) for him right now. I think he’d find it easier to recruit at LSU. Not saying he can’t or hasn’t pulled top classes at A&M but it’s easier at LSU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah yeah, he doesn't have HC or recruiting bona fides, but dude is stone cold on the X's and O's. 7 minutes ago, MavGrad99 said: It's not necessarily a better job right now. The pay can't get that much better... Jimbo has history at LSU and everyone in Louisiana wants him. I just don't know that it is realistic or even reasonable. Ed O is gone, its just a matter of when. I don’t know if Brady can work right now for LSU. If you want to take a shot on a former LSU coach go after Aranda. I’m real curious to see the coaching list for LSU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was going the young offensive genius route, Kellen would be my choice more than Brady. Kellen just seems like a good college coach. What about this for a name? Chris Petersen.

I told you my guy, James Franklin... If he can win at Vandy and turned that poop show around in Penn State... just imagine what he can do at LSU. After bashing Aranda for his poop show in Baylor last year, he has really turned my head this year. Him at LSU could be close to perfect. I think of Aranda like Kirby Smart. Defensive guy, but he isn't a screw up. Give him 5-6 years and you are contending in the same way Georgia is every year with Alabama. Joe Brady... Dude can run an offense. Can probably pull LA recruits. They know his name as well as they know Joe Burrow's name in Louisiana. Dude is an absolute superstar in Baton Rouge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him as a coach and has all of my respect for what he has done in his career, but I think him in the SEC may never happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you go after Aranda as HC with the understanding that you're gonna make Brady the highest paid OC in college ball, along with some goofy title like "Associate Head Coach" for resume purposes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoot, I would offer Aranda somewhere around $7-8m to be the HC and Brady $5m to be the OC/AHC if you could actually make that happen. I haven't talked about LSU much this year, but I can talk about a coaching change all day... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found it: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28439690/sources-baylor-matt-rhule-panthers-next-coach-gets-7-year-60-million-deal Quote The seven-year deal is worth $60 million and with incentives could be worth up to $70 million. Rhule made $4.1 million this season at Baylor. The Panthers paid a $6 million buyout to hire their new head coach, league sources told Schefter. So basically $8.5 million a year, $10 million with incentives. Baylor's buyout was $6M. Assuming their deal Aranda's wasn't absurdly more, LSU could easily match it.
