Jay Walker just reported emphatically that he is not a candidate and will not be interviewed.


Sorry guys.

didn't you defend to the death some link that said hudspeth is interviewing despite his denial? Did that same link not mention Gary?

I must have misheard just now, but I think Jay Walker just admitted he was wrong! Of course he had to point out that everyone else was wrong also. Fricking tool.

No link. Just the three most connected members of the sports media were saying the exact same thing. They were right on for the basketball hiring process and usually get 95% of their shite right. Crowton was the oddball out of the candidates so this makes sense.


If I'm wrong I'll admit it but I'll trust the sources.

I agree HH. As much as I am not a Jay Walker fan, he is usually accurate when it comes to inside information from ULL. He travels with the teams and appears to me to be the media mouthpiece of the athletic department.

With that being said, I don't agree at all with his opinions on most things and his arrogance makes his show almost unbearable.

If Crowton has a tough time finding another job, Miles' eventually needs to just get to the point where he shows him the door. I know it's not Miles' style, but he needs to do what is best for the program, and that's get rid of Crowton regardless of whether or not he has another position lined up

Hopefully Crowton gets a look from Tulane.

Seems hard to believe that the guy could find a job anywhere in or near Louisiana.

But the question is would they take him....lets say LSU pays his salary for the first five years...then would they take him away....would be worth the money for us

Jay is arrogant and annoying but he's usually right on. Also, people saying he hates LSU are wrong. He picks LSU to win all the time, talks about them whenever callers bring it up, etc. I don't know what else y'all want from him in that regard.

Completely False! He said on his show about 3 weeks ago how he would not pull for LSU because of our fans in the past being bandwagon fans and that we hated other schools in the state. He said this very clearly that he would not be a part of anything LSU.

If he doesn't actively root for them to win, that makes him hate LSU? Not everyone has to be an LSU fan.
