Tigerbait, can you give some insight on what actually happened? Eg - multiple offers/bidding wars? I don’t need to know the numbers but am curious if everything was just smoke and mirrors or how hard Georgia actually tried

I heard Georgia reached out to Jay/assistants but they said no they were happy at LSU. All are about to get contract extensions and nice raises (and deservedly so)

I don’t think Jay was ever serious about leaving but I understand Georgia attempting to throw an offer at him given the Georgia history. The Griffiths saying no also is telling. They are very loyal to Jay, they are about to get paid exceptionally well at LSU in addition to the benefits they get as an LSU employee

Jay has a great thing going at LSU with a legit shot at more titles in the coming years. Recruiting (if possible) got another boost just from finally winning one. Everything he needs is here and he has had every ounce of support since day one at LSU

Haven't posted in this thread since the Natty. Feel like I need to post something.

Crazy that even as recent as last year there were legit gym fans, not a typical Rant fan, that wanted Jay gone. Dude has done more in 4 years than any LSU coach ever. We were never good enough to win a championship in his previous years. We were really good, but not great. This was the first year we had to the talent to win it all and we did. Outside of one year, he really has overacheived if anything.
