    Would be much more concerned if we loss Porter, he's the real hoss.

    We will find an ample replacement for Henson. I do wish him well.

    We might be able to pull in the dude from Southern Miss.

    Tony Hughes from Southern Miss already took a job with Miss St. about a month ago so I think he is out of the picture.

    Former Boston College tight ends coach/special teams coordinator Don Yanowsky is the leading candidate to replace Henson.

    Another candidate is Clint Conque, HC at Central Arkansas. Much of his coaching career has been in Louisiana including a 6-year stint with Crowton at Louisiana Tech. He has also been a recruiting coordinator. He has built a fine program at UCA and has had unbelievable success in recruiting there. He has been very successful in recruiting Louisiana players. Taking the RC job at LSU would be a step up for him because it could lead to a HC job at a Division I school.

    Last word I heard was that Joe Robinson would be moved to tight ends, and Les would hire a new coach for special teams. I hope so, because we could use a little improvement in that area.
