I’d be surprised as well. Once Oklahoma moves to the SEC they’ll have more money but it will be a more difficult place to win.
LSU is a great job, I’m torn on which is better between them and Oklahoma. Lots of great candidates for them.
They wanted Jimbo but he basically had a lifetime $10 mil/year deal and a historically epic recruiting class on deck.
Billy Napier has been great at UL Lafayette (which has attempted to rebrand as Louisiana and I refuse to acknowledge that) going 7-7 his first year but since then 11-3, 10-1, and 9-1 currently. His only losses the last three years have been to Mississippi State, Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, and Texas. 30-4 is impressive for a three year stretch.
Dave Aranda is having a nice second season at Baylor after being LSU’s DC, and is a guy that has proven himself everywhere he’s been. The LA newspapers want him for USC, as he’s from California.
