I appreciate your insight and impeccable sources. But I would like a bit more than speculation. What ya got?
TIA

I don't think anyone knows. But, if I were reading between the lines, he's waiting on Kiffin and hasn't done anything else to prepare in case Kiffin doesn't come.

no. The biggest problem is that there is no credible information that indicates that we're doing any kind of search besides waiting on O's friend.

"I'm sure you have had many years of experience in hiring executive talent. But just in case you haven't please consider this: the new guy just might have commitments with his current team and revealing his move might not be a good idea right now.
After all even Chief waited util after he tanked the bowl game before the information was made public.
Sorry if I ruined your panic attack. Carry on."
Finally, a voice of reason!!

Like who and what? If this were a head coach, I agree. Assistant coaches move around all the time. It's not that big deal anymore.
Like Chief for example. Unless there is a head coaching job involved (and not always that too) most assistants see their old team through till after the bowl game.

Apparently you have credible evidence that we aren't. Please share. I'm confident your vast contacts with the coaches agent's community have given you the evidence we need.

You can disagree...but it will be an opinion based on no information. Have you heard any info on OC candidates outside of Kiffin? Don't you find that odd?

Well the Kiffin chatter is all unofficial speculation isn't it? I don't recall any official announcement to that effect. There might have been one so if you have information to the contrary I'd appreciate your sharing so I'm corrected.
So if indeed there hasn't been any prior official announcement why should I be concerned if there have been no subsequent information?

Are we really sitting around waiting on kiffin.
He said they are taking their time but let's be real this will affect recruiting
simmer down. i'm sure Coach O knows who he is hiring. any coach worth their weight in salt has a bowl game to coach. we surely don't want to get caught up in some contractual mess that will continue to distract from the team like the Chavis deal.

For all intents and purposes dec12-jan12 is a dead period in recruiting. Except for a handful of days.
Posted on 12/4/16 at 9:35 pm to Brunedog
If Coach O is still believing that Kiffin is coming, it's because Kiffin is coming. Period.
Kiffin has to get his offense ready for the playoffs and probably the championships game. The man is busy. Especially being that his QB is a freshman. He's busy.
Everybody needs to calm down a little bit and realize even if we don't get Kiffin.. the type of OC we need right now are popping up everywhere. This whole spread option offense has flourished and many many coaches have taken note and adapted to it.
Trust and believe.. next year LSU is going to be BIG TIME!!!

Well I have read articles that mentioned specific names. Canada, Briles were not mentioned but the list might not have been all inclusive.

Don't you get more leeway recruiting as a HC if you're missing a coordinator?

Because 17-18 year olds are so good at keeping secrets. If we had Kiffin locked up, the Thompson kid would've flipped already.

Most candidates are still coaching their teams I assume. Just a guess.
Pretty sure Herman hasn't filled his staff out in the same time frame so there's that.

Yeah
No OC means more HC direct contacts
