It's not Coach O, it's the administration that does not give me confidence.

First the way the Les Miles situation was handled. Joe Alleva has defined himself as an indecisive and feckless leader.
Is F. King running the show or is Joe Alleva running the show? If F. King is running the show why even have the position of Athletic Director? Under the current set up it appears that F. King simply needs a glorified administrative assistant to carry out the role of AD.
Second it's about recruiting. WE NEED PLAYERS OFFENSIVE LINEMEN AND LINEBACKERS. By not making the decisive decision to fire Les last year and hire Jimbo we are falling behind on the recruiting trail. There is no doubt in my mind that if Jimbo were coaching the 2016 Tigers we would be way ahead with many recruits that are currently off our board. Can Coach O make up for the mistakes and lack of leadership at the administrative level? The question can be answered in two ways; how well can Coach O recruit and how many wins does he earn next year.
Third, did the administration only consider Jimbo, Herman and CEO in their coaching search? If so, that is a terribly small list and more evidence of their incompetence as leaders.
I hope and pray CEO is very successful and I will support the Tigers the best that I can however CEO has been dealt a very difficult hand by the administration.

It's the good ole boy network similar to the 90's.
Get ready for mediocrity.

well said.
I'm not mad at Oregeron or the hire. I'm upset that this is the third or fourth straight screw up from Alleva and company.

He has shown that he is very reactionary and emotional when it comes to decision making, which is a horrifying attribute for anyone in a leader position.

how long can we whine about this. it's not only history, it's ancient history and it's not relevant anymore.

they said they did. they said they vetted about a dozen potential coaches. vetting is not just a background check; it gauges interest in the job. it is likely we will not know how this thing came down for a few years. in the meantime, people are free to make up what they want to. that's cool; I just wish they wouldn't present their fantasies as fact.

They both need to go before they tank the program completely. They went into this coaching hire thinking they had an ace in the hole Coach O, to leverage against elite coaches. Said they werent going to "overpay". No elite coach is going to change schools for the going rate. The prices always go up, but just like franchise QBs in the NFL, you cannot win consistently without an elite HC in college.
Basically they see the football program as an expense rather than an asset to invest in. They dont understand that the more you put into it, the more you will get out of it. Really is sad because Saban showed us the way to success when he was here, and now we've come full circle back to trying to do things cheap and easy.

The timing was wrong to hire Herman due to his affection for UT & Charlie Strong's incompetent coaching. Coach Fisher feels he has a better chance to win a natty with his current players so why go to LSU. Money was not a factor, winning a natty was, makes since.

Underwhelming hires have been the standard at LSU for decades, this isn't just an Alleva/King thing...
