[QUOTE="Connell62, post: 934598, member: 484"] I'm not saying that you are, but we shouldn't be comparing ourselves to LSU. Yes, they rebuilt their entire roster through the portal, but that is because they have donors willing to pony up big bucks. Even if our donors decided to invest, it would never be on par with the bags LSU drops. Perhaps better examples are what Pitt and Wake have been able to do. I'm not sold on the fact that we have money. Maybe you guys were watching a different coaching search than me for football, but we seemed to do the opposite. Word is that we were unable to offer the required salary a couple of the coaches on the list. Thank God for Brent Key and his love for GT (and his willingness to accept a lesser salary). We paid a buyout to Collins and his staff that exceeded $13M. Make that mistake, that was a setback that we weren't prepared for IMO. In other words, we weren't shopping for Cadillac's. Why would anyone expect that we are going to splurge on a basketball coach or even invest what is required to land someone that is coveted by other programs. [/QUOTE]
