In the immortal words of one George Costanza, Oh I'm moist, Baby! I'm actually starting to get succulent. Uh, I think it's time for me to play this famous Kansas song (apologies to Hatcher in advance): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60A1yKc2hi4
Well, think about it. Henson has been working in Les' shadow for over a decade now. Sometimes a career coach needs to punch his ticket somewhere else or he gives the impression that he's holding onto his job only because he's an old friend. If Henson has ambitions of being a head coach, he needs to move around some and prove that he can be sucessful in more than one system and under more than one coach. LSU is one of the top programs of the 21st century. Les will have no problems finding a capable replacement.

So finally a Tiger fan admits that Brown may have actually chosen to go to USM! Funny. Before now, all I've heard is that he went to USM because he couldn't qualify academically to go to an out of state school. I've heard (mostly here) a lot of good things about Henson in the past with regards to his excellent recruiting. I really hope we are able to replace him with someone of equal or better talents, but it seems like that will be tough to do.
