I'll give you an added incentive:

If Riley's smart he can see what I can see - he either takes the LSU job and wins a NC in the next 3-4 years, or he stays and watches the coach who beats him every time they play (Aranda) take the LSU job. Then starting as soon as next year, he has to go through LSU and Alabama to get into the playoffs.

The writing is really on the wall here for Riley. Now is his chance if he ever wants to rise to the top of his profession.

It wouldn't just be a $$ decision

It's amazing how much every opinion changes based on Saturday performance.
Some opinions are flipping, but I think that most is just that wins and losses energize the fans and critics of specific coaches. So every week you see some people become more vocal.

I will still want Aranda even if he loses to K state, but I will admit that he has the shortest resume. Each win or loss for him is a bit more significant.

My biggest issue with Riley is he doesn't have experience rebuilding a program. He was gifted a program that was rolling. But he would be a solid hire for sure.

It’s not a rebuild, the home is in good shape, just in need of some updates and renovations

new coach can sign 25 and bring in 7 transfers

32 new players is a way to quickly rebuild a program, especially with the talent LSU already has

Will the D still be good without O? The improvements have all apparently been due to him

It's LSU it's already gifted with elite talent. Riley would kill it in recruiting here

it's a complete gutting...down to the studs...new wiring, new flooring, possibly knocking down walls...Two straight non-winning seasons...it's as close to a rebuild as you can get without tearing down the house...

Disagree sir. If we can just have Ed quit punching holes in the wall and flipping the furniture the house would be in great shape.

That's a little dramatic. The talent is still there. We've had top 5 recruiting classes the past 2 years. A complete rebuild would be if this had gone on long enough to push the recruiting classes back into the teens or twenties. A coach would then have to do what he could with the talent that was there and reestablish LSU as a power over a few years of recruiting. You can't say a team with top 5 recruiting classes for the past 3-4 years is in complete rebuild mode.
