Sssshhhhhh.... be quiet.... One day they just might wake up and realize what they are missing just 49 miles away..... Of course then Coach Robe would finally get paid what he is worth but thats a whole different discussionQuote:

Thanks!
He got a raise this past off-year. He should still be getting more, but he is being paid much better for what he's worth.Quote:

I understand but this guy is the best college coach in the country.... If the folks accross the pond (Atchafalaya) ever wake up to that fact they will make him wealthy.... I dont bemoan him getting his due... would just rather it be for a more worthy program than the Evil EmpireQuote:

I wouldn't worry about it too much, although the potential for him leaving is certainly there.Quote:

Secondly, the college baseball world isn't like it used to be. A job at LSU doesn't necessarily mean National Championships. This isn't the 90s, there's a lot more parity in this game these days.
Thirdly, I would contend, though I don't know him or know his feelings, that being able to stay at this program that he's built up to this level, and continuing to build, is just as important to him as moving to a new conference and fighting for regionals there. Like I said, being in the SEC doesn't guaruntee him anything more than he's already been able to earn at UL. I'm sure the amount of pride in seeing this program build into a national power is much greater than the satisfaction that he would gain by moving to a big money school. And, the jump to the SEC or Big XII in baseball isn't equal to the jump that JK Hall made to the big East, and isn't even close to a jump that Bustle or Lee would make. The Sun Belt is a very competitive baseball conference, and was ranked around 6th or 7th last year in overall conference RPI. And finally, unlike in Football and Basketball, Baseball is different in that the non-BCS schools have a great shot at a national championship, as evidenced by Rice and CS-Fullerton in recent years.
Fourth, if he left, it would move him away from his home and family, which I've heard is very important to him.
Overall, he would make more money, but I don't know, at least in my mind, that the extra money, and potentially same/similar results, would offer me the same satisfaction as winning at the smaller program that already has my fingerprints all over it, and requires much more gratifying work.
I thought it was Thursday also
Yep I've made all of those arguments and while Baby-robe is here I don't think we have to worry... However I do think the guy can make some serious cash in a BCS type school and while the pride of what he has built here would way heavily, i think too the frustration of having to work so hard to raise money rather than do what he loves, coaching baseball, might play a factor...Quote:
