Would have helped out a lot in this situation. We've gone from Alleva being the search to Ponamsky. That's why they look like a bunch of monkeys trying to screw a door knob.

Search firms are dumb

That's how we wound up with Nick Saban. Plus we have a HC with an abysmal track record of hiring assistants, but okay.

Yep. Ask Ole Miss how their Chancellor search firm went.

The guy that was the head of it ended up hiring himself

Not sure about that when it comes to head coaches, but a search firm for a coordinator position certainly seems dumb.

LSU got extremely lucky with Saban hire.

Hell, Sean Tuohy and Gil Brandt had more to do with it than anyone at LSU.

Saban did not come from a search firm - Touhy from new orleans contacted joe Dean's son @ birmingham southern that Saban"s agent was trying to contact him.
Emmert told dean that they would talk to him & not to offer any money - Ask Saban what he needed! It was $1,200,000 - the beginning of the big numbers> while this was going on Emmert's wife was showing Saban's wife around Baton Rouge!

A search firm brought us Curley IIRC. Labeled the next Bear by a Cowboy bigshot.

No it isn’t, and how frequently do you think firms are used for assistants anyway?

Another incredibly stupid post. Not necessarily one by you OP as I don't do research on the Rant but it is stupid and you should know that.
