LSU just retained their defensive coordinator, Dave Aranda, despite a strong effort by Jimbo Fisher Texas A&M to swipe him. Aranda was already set to make $1.85 M next year. The rumor is LSU retained him by guaranteeing him $2.5 M a year for 4 years.
That is one expensive DC. I wonder if Don Brown will ask for a similar contract? Or maybe Don wants to throw his name into the hat at A&M?
In any case, if A&M comes after a guy like Barnett, I think they would be able to get him. MSU needs to keep pushing the salaries of our assistants up, but we could still lose people to these big bidders if they come calling.
