Not good. It would have been easier has they not found out this early. Much easier for them to fight back now.

You know the OU boosters are going straight to the media with this to put pressure on Riley. The optics would be enough to make him back away from LSU so his team/university doesn’t abandon him like they’ll feel he’s doing to them.

Hanagriff just said what he’s heard is that Riley is THE target and his buyout is only $6.9 million

I broke something on O but mostly recruiting stuff.

The thread I linked in this thread has TBL responding saying he agrees.

Also posted about Mel being out before anyone thought. LINK

This is not outside the realm of possibility....

I think any ploy for a salary bump carries the implicit comment that they're willing to take another job if they don't get it. But I do agree that the salary bump is the goal. It's only about who will give it to him.

Oldest trick in the book. Agent flirts with LSU, OU finds out and now you're the highest paid coach in the country and also getting a brand new weight room and indoor facility.

When is Napiers press conference?

Woodward like I said gave Riley a timetable to reach back out. Riley reached back out, and somehow people on OUs side found out. OU wants this under the radar as well. After all they are still undefeated. I would not be surprised if this leaks to the national media at some point. Which is what Woodward did not want to happen. It’s gonna be a dog fight for Riley OU is not just gonna let him go.



With all due respect, if this is true why didn’t Woody just smokescreen Napier or Aranda for the 6 weeks until the season ends? Both candidates are believable enough and would take away spotlight from Riley.

Napier was NEVER in the running for HC. Idk why some of the folks on this board have such a hard on for the guy

We know. Do you need me to link you to a definition of smokescreen? Reread the post.

You are Objective Tiger's alter. He got whacked for doing this same kind of thing. You are a fAggie in disguise.

Also, Chicken told you to open your own account. You should be banned for ignoring him.

You said both candidates were believeable. Aranda yes, Napier no.

Napier no.


Coming from a program that hired O after 3-21 SEC record at Ole Miss? You might not like it, but Napier would be believable.

Except O was already the interim and Alleva was leading the search.

1 yard line against Missouri with a 1st down and couldn't score. (Just give it to Emery on a race to the EZ corner flag and he gets in on 1 of the 4 attempts)

I'll only believe "Riley to LSU" it when it's FORMERLY announced..........
