No one knows and here’s why…

If you are trying to sell something big, in this case a major head coaching job, the first step is to create the perception of demand.

You fire the coach early and start leaking rumors of going after the “white whale”, and going after coaches like Lincoln Riley, Dabo, Jimbo, etc. Just by leaking those names it makes the job seem more attractive.

All of you saying Woodward doesn’t leak are wrong. He leaks, he just leaks whatever information will help.

Creating a sense of demand gives you leverage. Woodward knows what he is doing. It just won’t be what any of you are expecting.

You insiders are just pawns.

Prove it

Woodward could have told you himself who he is going after and you still can’t be certain he didn’t tell you that for some other reason you aren’t aware of.

The fact that Lincoln Riley was even mentioned tells me I’m right. Has the coach of an undefeated top 4 team ever negotiated a job? Give me an example

No, that's not the way this happens. The leaks are created and manufactured by the agents. The leaks do not start with the AD. They are started by the agents. Fact.

Let me clarify. Accurate leak.

You really have purple and gold glasses on if you think Woodward fired O in the first half of the season because he got some type of commitment from a coach of Riley or Jimbo’s caliber?

That’s ultimate delusion

Bingo! Agents leak to get their guys raises or set them up for the next opening as an “in demand” name.

I said no one knows

All I’m saying is I know bullshite when I smell it. Thinking that you are going to get Lincoln Riley is bullshite. Every AD knows you can’t talk to him until January. Why would Woodward fire O now if Riley was his target?

I'll tell you what is happening behind the curtain...

There's a huge argument within the BoS and with Scott about what is less funny:

getting your balls doped or icy hot in the jock strap

Then you haven't been paying attention. EVERYONE involved in the 2015 debacle has sttested that Alleva had a commitment from Jimbo at FSU. Miles was to be fired after A&M and Jimbo was coming. But both governors and the LSU president shot it down. Called it bad PR due to the budget crisis.
quote:

This report is not exactly a surprise considering Jimbo all but had the job at the end of last season when LSU Athletic Director Joe Alleva wanted to fire Les Miles and hire him. The university president and then Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal backed keeping Miles and Alleva did so.

quote:

Alexander confirms reports that the final decision on Miles’ future did not come until after a halftime meeting during the Nov. 29 game against Texas A&M, though he says the decision had "pretty much been made" a few days earlier. Among those in the halftime meeting were Alexander, Athletic Director Joe Alleva, and several members of the LSU Board of Supervisors.

Jimbo was in, before Miles was fired. So you are wrong.
