Both Saban and Miles had multiple years' experience at major conference schools before getting hired at LSU. No, they were not championship...
Yes, I do call a former coordinator with less than one season as a head coach at a mid-major school a "fall back." He may be great, but does LSU...
If he ever wants to win a NC, he might consider leaving Stanford. It will be very difficult to win a NC there.
If we have to talk about "fall back" choices, firing Miles may be a big mistake. Maybe it won't be, but past history here and at other schools...
And in those 9 years, LSU went through 3 head coaches. That is not good for the stability of the program. It was actually 4 coaches, but we...
I appreciate your perspective, and with you living out of state (as do I), our perspectives may be a bit different than if we still lived here. I...
I would support Orgeron. My take on it is: if we cannot get a Fisher or a Shaw, I would rather have Orgeron before a Mullen or Kiffen, which...
Back in the 70's and 80's, the pay for college assistant coaches was not much more (if more at all) than a high school football coach/teacher/AD...
Negative. As I wrote, that was directly from the horse's mouth. And let's let that sink in for a moment...they fired the president of the...
I believe one has to be born into that sort of wealth, not just work for it.
LaSalle, you're a little younger than me, so you were probably only 5 or 6 when Charlie Mac was fired. I was only 8 or 9, but my dad sat and had...
Another trail conversation of theirs was: "Can you recite all of the ammendments to the Constitution? I think I can, but maybe not in order."...
Briles would be interesting, actually, but he would need a strong DC (though I like Phil Bennett.) I don't think he's that strongly tied to...
I didn't say never, but I did say it was one of his endearing qualities. The "clock it" situation is the only time that I saw him throw a player...
I've followed a lot of them, and many times, the hires are not that exciting. We need to be prepared that the hiring end of this debacle could be...
The intention of his post was to discuss this cluster that LSU finds itself in. What are any of us doing but discussing this fork in the road for...
For those of us old enough, we have seen this before--when Charlie Mac was shown the door. So...we are hoping that we don't wander in the college...
And he'd be nuts to resign. Let him be fired and take some rich dudes' 15 million.
Yes, he did. That's one time in 11 years, and he hasn't done it since. As far as college coaches go, that's pretty impressive. I know that you...
I fail to see where Bama did Meyer in, either. I've always thought it was Miles--that is who Meyer had to face every year. Bama has their...
