I said this a few days ago, even before the LR stuff took off: if "White Whale" stuff was true, there was no way it could be Lincoln Riley.

Woodward has been around for a while. There's no way his "white whale" was a 30-something HC with ~5 years experience.

It was always someone established, and now we know who.

Exactly what I've been saying since his name popped up. They were riding with Kelly all along. The timing even proved it. They got word yesterday that ND was out of the top 4 with an extremely small chance to get in, so they announced it. This hire went down EXACTLY the way we knew it would. We heard literally nothing and SW knew who it was all along. Hours before it was announced his name slowly started to leak. Just like with KM and JJ.

yeah USC seemed to be the big time silent assassins for about 24 hours there. The more that comes to light here is showing Scott lived up to his reputation

Two hires in a row he's had local and national media chasing its tails and throwing shite at the wall

cracked me up yesterday how Moscona was on air yesterday adamant we whiffed per his sources and we were now scrambling. Dude you've been consistently wrong about everything during both searches and you still want to stand by your sources? You don't have anyone near Scott and it shows.

wow you mean all the message board and Twitter "smoke" from "insiders" turns out to be total horse shite and the professional AD wasn't "scrambling" but had a plan in place all along? Who could have seen that coming.

Supposedly campbell turned them down.

No one knows the order. Usc said they didn't even know they had a chance at riley so this could've been before him.

Didn’t a guy post a few weeks ago that an LSU plane was spotted in Southbend?

Campbell is either waiting on the right NFL gig or just wants to be the next Kirk Ferentz

Those comments were made a week or so ago in response to rumors that he may be in talks for the USC job, not LSU.

He also said:
“You know, it’s interesting,” he said. “Where your name is brought up is probably where they want you to look so you’re not looking where you should be looking. It’s a smokescreen. It’s that time of the year where you throw names out there so people don’t look where they are supposed to look.”

In hindsight, his comments were spot on. Brilliant response.

This is about a smoking gun as it gets in confirming both BK and SW made this deal some time ago.

Yep, the $200 million got all the media run but that was the real nugget. And of course the media dolts let it fly right by

This dude is a savage and I fricking love it

I’m kind of torn what to think about the whole situation.

BK was my first choice in 2007 when it looked like Miles would bolt for Michigan and BK had Cincy as world beaters and had done well at a MAC school a few years before.

I wrote him off when he went to ND as I figured him as a lifer there.


He has won wherever he has gone and will likely do extremely well recruiting here simply because LSU has great inroads in Texas and Florida in addition to being the top in state program.

I’m just hoping some of the character issues related to him and his players aren’t an indication of anything.

LSU has enough PR nightmares already without there being a new Guice-style incident or someone dying while filming practice.



TLDR - Better than I thought we would get, especially after Riley went to USC, but I am wary.

Woody offered Jimbo 3 times and got denied every time. Once the cock crowed he offered Kelly.
