Ed Orgeron joins Tennessee

It looks like it is official, Ed Orgeron will be joining Tennessee. Apparently Sean Payton was happy with this.

The source also suggested that Payton was not very pleased with the progress of the defensive line under Orgeron even before the LSU-Tennessee tug-of-war began, and he is looking forward to the opportunity to bring in a veteran defensive line coach with NFL experience.

Also from the article:

The deciding factor appears to have been money. While it was rumored LSU was willing to spend in the neighborhood of $500,000, it is speculated Tennessee offered Orgeron nearly $900,000.
