Old School coaches talked about character and integrity
Which coaches are those? Like Woody Hayes or Joe Paterno?

Idk. Why don’t you look in the mirror. He’s your former OC. You also hired Sark and Jermey Pruitt.

Character?

Like Saban when he bolted for the NFL? Then bailed on Bama when everyone else was able to cheat?

Someone is too young to remember the weeks leading up to Saban walking out on Miami and taking the Bama job and how he got hammered by the media for it.

Why should he be expected to stay? He has a chance to win multiple national championships at LSU. It sucks because of the timing, but blame the NCAA. He offered to finish what he started, and OM said no. I get both sides of that, but making him out to be a bad guy because the left is insane.

We went through this shite yearly with Saban. He was always flirting with the NFL until he finally left for the pros

Like the kind of character Bear had as a coach? He is the reason there is a cap on scholarships.

His “old school” approach was to give out hundred plus scholarships, lock up the kids, and never intended to play them. But kept them off the roster of the competition.

couldnt care less what kinda person the coach is as long as he wins. Truly dont care. I only want him to win.

Except for that paterno bullshite, PSU still shouldn't be allowed to have a football team.
