So maybe chicken was in on it. Who benefits from more traffic?

You mistake my post. USC is a great job. But they have diminished fan support and they’ve been chasing the ghost of the Carroll era for 10+ years.

I'm pretty sure it was reported a couple weeks after USC fired what's-his-name, Helton, that Franklin fired his agent and hired Jimmy Sexton. And that apparently really happened and was not just hearsay.

So maybe Franklin was angling for a raise the whole time.

I’m serious, I’m curious to your thoughts? I have no idea.

Bro, no offense but I think you’re underestimating this site.
The shite was talked about on ESPN during the game.
Every media bum is reading this site, probably spitting out anything and everything.

They have no fans. Did you see the UCLA game turnout (at home)?

Scott Woodward seems to be tight lipped
If everybody thinks he’s got a guy in the works and it’s not drawing attention to the guy he truly has in the works ...... well then that’s a win.

Hes prob happy as shite the buzz was LR.

Nobody on this entire board knew he was going to usc. It’s all smoke.

The reason LSU hasn’t announced is bc the guy is still coaching and doesn’t want it announced to their season is over.
I’d bet any amount of money on it.

It's a great site with a lot of traffic. But that doesn't mean that people say here matters or affects anything.

Couldn't that have a negative effect on recruiting though?

You surrender one ESD and potentially a few recruits for your future. Whoever the coach is will bring it together.

No, but it means that there's nowhere for the richest boosters to go and get a bunch of love for sharing tidbits to the plebs. Much easier to keep things under wraps when the people you're forced to tell don't have much incentive to leak things.

Plenty of smoke via everyone talking LSU so wasn't easy to hide.

College football coaching searches are all slight of hand. Get everyone looking at their left hand, then pull a Luke Fickle out of the left ear.

Because they can’t fill a 30,000 seat stadium. Their fans weren’t talking about who the next hire would be because they don’t care.
