re: FACTS: LSU v Houston

quote:

---

Last year was their first top 10 finish since 1979

---

Last year, with the previous coach's players. How is he going to finish this year? His second year in the program.

quote:

---

There are a lot of coaches out there with more experience than Herman that LSU can look at.

---

this is one of the few things he's said that makes any sense, but he ruins it with stuff like this:

quote:

---

guy who has coached for less than two years in a little league and has seen his team go to shite

---

I don't know a single person that wants Herman that says he's the only guy LSU should look at. His lack of experience is his biggest negative, so i can get why rational people might be skeptical, though it seems that most vociferous anti-Herman people are like this guy and seem unhinged and can't make a rational argument, looking at single games is beyond stupid.

quote:

---

Name them.
Seriously name like 3 candidates you would prefer to Herman

---

Petrino and Chris Peterson would be my top 2 choices all things being equal. However, most reports seem to think Peterson will not leave the PacNW and I don't think LSU will hire Petrino due to his off the field issues and his large buyout. That leaves Fisher, who I'd be fine with, but he will also be expensive and may not leave. So, that leaves me with take a flyer on some upcomers and i'd go with Herman over Fleck, and MacIntyre at CU.

ETA: besides those 6 there are probably 20 more I'd take over Ogereon.

When is biggest accomplishment is what he did under a head coach who has won multiple championships without him? That's not rational. But what he did in a poor conference with another coach's players is rational?

Petrino and Chris Peterson would be my top 2 choices

---

So of your top two choices you can't even spell one of their names correctly? And you are trying to belittle me for not wanting Herman or knowing how to evaluate coaches?

quote:

---

i'd go with Herman

---

No shite, huh? Even though losing to SMU at Houston is the equivalent of LSU being shut out by Vanderbilt or worse?

Are you a LSU fan?

quote:

---

What was the gap between 2000 LSU and UAB? 1 game doesn't define a coach. That you insist on bringing that up just futher proves you have no idea what you are talking about

---

WTF does UAB have to do with anything? LSU losing to UAB in Saban's first year before he had his players and system installed, should in NO way be compared to Herman losing to SMU while gaining 303 total offensive yards in his second season.

quote:

---

Houston is a much better (based on talent) program than Navy, Tulsa, SMU and UCF

---

And what are you basing their talent off of?

quote:

---

You want a guy who loses to lesser talented teams to lead the LSU football program?

---

Every coach to ever exist has lost to less talented teams. I'd take Pete Carrol in a fricking heartbeat.

Remember when he lost as 28 point favorites? I'd take Nick Saban, and he's lost plenty of those in his career.

I'd take Urban Meyer, who's lost more than his fair share.

quote:

---

Houston is not a better program than LSU currently.

---

Or historically. Or by any metric. You're an idiot.

quote:

---

quote:
Besides NC's Houston actually is on par or better than LSU.


This is literally the dumbest thing ever posted on any board. I'm just shocked.

---

quote:

---

Well, like the last guy I challenged. Show me the hall of fame coaches, heisman trophy winners and Maxwell or whatever the top QB award is of both teams. If you aren't too disappointed like the last guy post your results. I await your reply.

---

I already responded to this absolutely retarded comment.

They have 7 consensus all Americans all time. They haven't had one in 25 years. fricking QB awards? Who gives a shite?

Seriously, how old are you?

[quote]LINK ]

SINCE 2000



And you can thank Herman's 1 year of recruiting for that ranking. True freshman.....

quote:

---

So fricking what? Yes I am biased against LSU hiring a guy who has coached a minor league team for less than two seasons. A guy who this season is doing worse than last season. A guy who IS coaching with another coach's players.

I have been a LSU fan since before I was born and didn't even know it. I am not in favor of hiring a guy who's biggest accomplishment is winning one game as OC under another coach who probably would have won the game anyway.

---

You still have not said who your guy is. I can't wait to look at what he's accomplished. I bet it's O isn't it? Oh please be O.

So the QB and coaching awards don't matter. That's how you make your point by throwing out pertinent information related to the two programs and say "who gives a shite"?
