Woodrow's real white whale is champion recruiter, dynasty builder, 2-time national title-winner Dabo.

Whether he's a top manager type or a specialist, don't worry about it. Whether he speaks in a goofy manner or not, don't freagin worry about it. Mind your business and root for LSU.

Dabo is Woodrow's White Whale.

As flaky as Meyer is and with Nick being so entrenched at his "Sabamm" dynasty, that leaves only 1 Woodward type of hire: Dabo.

Interesting Kelly smokescreen quote and response to leaving ND:
Kelly did not mince words and swiftly rejected any notion that he'd leave the Fighting Irish for another job.

"No," Kelly said. "I mean, look, I think Mike Tomlin had the best line, right? Unless the fairy godmother comes by with that $250 million check, my wife would want to take a look at that first. I'd have to run it by her."

Kelly is referring to the Steelers coach's viral response when asked about possibly leaving for the USC job. Like Kelly, Tomlin essentially said there was no chance. The storyline was set in motion after a Saturday segment on College GameDay when several analysts named Kelly as a prime target for USC. Kelly later called the rumor a "smokescreen."

Seeing the talent he has assembled MOST YEARS, and how he handled that talent, I would not be mad at hiring Dabo as HC.

He doesn’t let players cuss, won’t fit with Louisiana culture.

This clue was right under our noses the whole time. How could LSU hire anyone else?

I can't think of a coach who would fit in at LSU worse than Brian Kelly. His personality is just awful

He would not fit in well in the south, and I know people at GVS which worked with him that would tell you the same thing.

He's a decent coach but damn, he looks like he's 80.

It seems it is becoming a requirement that the LSU coach has some sort of speech issue.

Country bumpkins fit just fine in Baton Rouge. My father and my aunt sure did, and I've known countless other ones in Baton Rouge. I'd say about 60% more Cajun type of voice and about 40% southern redneck type of voice. But again, nobody gives a _uck when a guy makes you a national title-winning dynasty.

Unbelievable how many on this board would melt upon Dabo.
