Woodward may have told O you tried now its my turn.

This really seems like a situation where you turn to your staff and say compile a list of candidates and profiles so we can start racking and stacking them on the big board then start making phone calls. Your support staff should have dossiers on multiple candidates that O and Scott can consider. Maybe they do.

That hire would be Linehan bad. A guy who couldn’t hack it coordinating in the nfl trying to find his way in college. Disaster!


unfortunately, i expect this to be the hire now,,,,,sad, just sad

The most concerning thing is every time something goes wrong “someone” blames Woodward anonymously.

I think there's plenty of blame between O and Scott, but it's not good if this turns into a Team O vs Team Scott situation. They need to be working in concert.

frick that. What a disaster of a hire that would be.

If they are considering going that route, just give the damn job to Corey and be done with it


But part of me wants to see Barry hired just to watch the spin job O would do in that press conference when it’s announced

This is what happens when you repeatedly strike out on highly prized targets.

Would this even be considered an upgrade from Pelini?

i understand striking out, but there has to be better options out there. Current DCs at smaller schools looking to advance their careers.... The search committee, if they have one, sucks arse

Pelini has actually been a successful DC at one point in his career. Joe Barry hasn't even managed that.

To be fair we did that with Freeman and got snubbed in the end and then went with a solid option with familiarity which should have been an "easier" hire and got caught by an end run by the Saints. Then there's Arnett who apparently we chose not to offer.

Outside of interviewing more candidates I don't know what LSU should have done different. It still looks bad though.

that's why i hope this is just a rumor and not real info...because this would be worse than the BO hire. IMO

I would like to hope this is a false trail after letting info on the first two candidates leak out. Let everyone freak out over this scrub and find your guy.

I'm not familiar with Linehan, but his bio says he's a 2 time OC and a HC in the NFL. Somebody must think highly of him

Why would he be a bad hire?

Isn't Urban Meyer about to hire Linehan as the OC for the Jags?
