You mean the Iowa State that blew out Oregon in the Fiesta Bowl that year? I understand why Napier might not be choice 1, but that was a good win.

Because Riley will not give up everything he had established at OK to come here . Succesful P5 coaches in stable programs don’t move , generally . SW can ask and kick the tires . We don’t do telephonic coaching . So , I think SW already has his guy in tier 2 and they are working on asst coaches .
Just my intuition . It is Napier and they are working on asst coaches . Just my cristal ball and intuition . I have no sources or sauces .

Saban is a freakin unicorn and when we had him, noone knew he would be what he is.
A splash-hire would be any coach that you wouldn't expect to come to LSU that would get the fanbase and players excited from the outset. Riley, Jimbo, and Franklin would be splash hires. They have all been successful for many years at P5 schools, two have been successful in the SEC. Aranda and Tucker would not be splash hires, but would most likely be good hires because they are actually good coaches who are succeeding currently at the P5 level. Napier, while many would feel is result of a failed coaching search, would probably do well at LSU because he is a good coach.
Woodward knows what he is doing and he is really good at this. I trust we will land a solid coaching hire and we'll see LSU in the national championship mix within the next 1-2 years.

One of these things is not like the others.

So logically it’s Saban.

If it's not Saban, Kirby or Dabo it will not be a splash hire...Jimbo?? He'll be a 9-3 8-5 guy forever like he's been.
Tucker...one decent season with only beaten one winning team and lost to a dog..
Reilly, inherited a winning program and tradition...actually has done well there but no splash..
Aranda...may make a small wave but no splash..
Franklin...I won't even address it..
Oh! Woody is gonna make the big hire....There isn't one..None of those guys are the next Saban...none of those guys will win multiple championships..
I roll the dice with one of the young guys who at least have a chance to do big things, who do not cost so much we are stuck with them if they shite the bed..
Any of those other guys will cost so much we will be stuck with them for a decade...not worth the risk..
You forgot to mention that Napier has exactly zero Power Five experience.
Hence, that leaves only Lane Kiffin who is the no brainer hire to be LSU next head football coach because his outstanding record of success far exceeds all the rest.

LSU isn't hiring Kiffin. There's no chance.

Riley is no F ing splash man he has done nothing I mean nothing stop looking at the heisman qbs they played in a league that was soft as hell! Rey $hits the bed against good competition and his defenses have sucked since he’s been at OU! Gtfo the train man!

Your the idiot look at his record in the play offs 0-4 and the some of the games are not close! He has terrible defenses! And Can’t win in the playoffs die to better competition! He’s he’s not that good

According to a who? A loser like you.
Nonetheless, Lane Kiffin is by far the best candidate on the list and just because you have been brainwashed by negative press doesn't mean Lane Kiffin isn't by far the best coach for the job at LSU.

You’re making good points then say something like this. Promotion from AD to University president is not a thing! It doesn’t happen. You need academic credentials to be a university president. Stop with this silliness.

That's not quite right. Riley has intentionally ran up the scores against that second-rate competition he plays in the second-rate Big 12 to pad his QBs numbers so they will win the Heisman.
However, once OU hits the SEC, those days of being the QB whisperer will be over. As Riley won't be able to intentionally run up the scores on anyone.
Not to mention that if Riley doesn't learn to break his unbroken record of always consistently having piss poor defenses, he may find himself looking for a new gig in another three years.

Napier hasn’t done shite to earn a damn thing. Take off your USL glasses and look at facts:
The alleged number 1 recruiting class in the SUNBELT has barely survived against shitty teams in his conference and has been out coached. Hell he lost to UT who has lost 5 in a row including to Kansas.
USL has the 89th or worse Streength of schedule this season. He has 1 win against Iowa State but ISU was nearly beaten the week before by Northern Iowa (won in OT) in the 2020 covid season. Where are all his wins against P5 schools?
Why not hire Deion Sanders? He is out recruiting Napier and they are killing it at Jackson St.? They lost 1 game by 5 points and he is pulling in 4* recruits. You don’t make that hire because he hasn’t proven enough. Let him go to TCU and do the same for an extended period of time.
The issue with Napier fanboys is really simple. They think USL is equivalent to playing in the SEC.
Nobody on here would disagree with me saying USL would likely not win a game in the SEC THIS SEASON. Just look at LSUs schedule. Would USL beat Bama?, Arky?, UF?, AU,? MSU?, Ole Miss,? TAMU?, UK? Who exactly COULD ULL go into the game against and not be a double digit underdog? Vandy MAYBE.
Take LSU for example. They have played the 5th toughest schedule in the country. They went toe to toe with 2 too 25 teams that are legitimately ranked ie Playoff ranking system and not some media shite.
Dumb post...about UL playing sec teams!!..They cannot get 4 and 5 star recruits there but if he was at LSU he could..He did it while recruiting for Alabama
