Has Anyone heard anything about the next Mike?

Dear God. They hope to have one by August. This has not changed for some time. Please go back to your rock.

If Aleva is conducting the search.........

...we may settle for the taxidermed previous Mike......if its not a re-thread, its probably one preserved in chemical preservatives.

And I am not joking......Aleva has done a very poor job of conducting searches for coaches and LSU has had to pay alot for this ineptness

I haven't seen a list of which tigers they've made offers to, but I'm hoping to land either a 5 star or a high 4.

The tiger at the truck stop is rated pretty low but said to be a sleeper by those with sauces.

Disapprove of Coach O and the changes he has made?

I love what O has done. The hire has really grown on me, but It's hard for me to credit JA for it. He hired a firm to find a coach and ended up hiring the DL coach! I believe O will succeed, but JA lucked out with that crap. Last season is a better indication of how he runs things.

Well he's not, he has nothing to do with it, as has been said a thousand times already.

I don't think they are looking that hard. I heard a news report where they were talking to a lady at a big cat sanctuary. She said there were dozens of them around the country with hundreds of cats (not counting private collectors). There is a webite, tigersinamerica.org, that shows 17 or so dedicated to saving tigers. The one in Tyler, Tx has over 50 tigers. It just doesn't seem that difficult to acquire one, even for free..

And I hope that we get a young Tiger like last time.
