Yeah, playing those two every year is extremely tough. They beat the shite out of us when they played us in Tiger Stadium in 2022 when we ended up winning the West.

And lost both games.

There SEC over arkansas (3pt win), miss state (miracle comeback and Kentucky have a combined 0 SEC wins.

Tennessee let him have his pick of the litter for a QB backing him with NIL and the guy sucks. Only QB’s to have success in his system are qb’s he didn’t develop. The UCF program regressed while he was there

There’s a lot of criticisms I have of him but this isn’t one of them. Hendon Hooker was garbage at Va Tech, yet becomes an all American under Heupel. Hell even Joe Milton greatly improved from what he was at Michigan. Aguliar was a turnover machine at App State, yet has been spectacular so far this year.

Exactly, people who would be mad at a heupel hire are insane. He’s had good defenses at TN as well.

He has been a mixed bag there. He had a couple of good defenses and some really bad ones. His offense have been very good though.

He had Georgia beat if the kicker makes a 40-yard FG

He has beaten bama 2x in a row at home….he would have ELITE offenses at LSU every year

This board cracks me up.

Heupel is a damn good coach that has Tenner back to relevance.

He’s a much better HC than Les Miles or O were and those two chuckle fricks won NCs here.

If he was a better coach than those two he would’ve won at least one natty by now. Listen to yourself then get some professional help

Yeah thats the most out there part of my take and trying to dig my heels in.

Hooker had already started in 20 games and same goes for Aguliar. They were ready to take a jump forward

You are right, he sucks. LSU definitely doesn’t want him.

Do we have a guy with Haslem money? Jimmy is pretty free with the dollars. It would be at best a lateral move for him.

NIL and the portal have made the fact that Louisiana producing great hs football talent less of an attraction
