Over the weekend Nikki got a verbal from Louisiana's top 2018 player and she is now in the running for the number 1 recruit for 2018, If she can land her she keeps her job


Not necessarily..............

That's an athlete who is graduating in two years. A verbal from someone that far away from graduation doesn't hold water and I don't imagine the athletic director would extend her (Caldwell's) contract based on that. Remember, this coming season is the last on her contract.

LSU needs to show improvement from last season, and an improvement in recruiting. If they don't, I fear they won't bring her back.

Yeah, Caldwell at minimum is going to have to bring in a top 20 class for 2016 if there's going to be any hope going forward.


One of the more perplexing coaching tenures LSU has ever had. On paper and at face value, I thought there was no way LSU could have made a better hire at the time. Again a young, charismatic, well spoken coach with a flawless resume. It made perfect sense.

I don't know why she'd be so unhappy at LSU. She has a big salary and what I would imagine one of the bigger budgets in the country. Alleva has given every other non revenue program all they need, not sure why that wouldn't apply to her too.

Who would be your first phone call to, 96?
