It's certainly possible Riley stays and uses this for leverage, but that post is way too self masturbatory to be any knowledgeable insider. Oklahoma getting a recruiting advantage in Louisiana from this? Please that's fantasy.

LR may or may not be the next LSU HC.

But this reads like a guy trying to convince himself of something even he doesn’t really believe.

This is much more fun when it isn't about your own schools coach.

My hunch is that there is some truth to what OU insider is saying.

I wouldn't be surprised if Riley's wife is indeed against a move.

Feigning interest in other jobs to boost recruiting success in future classes is one of the dumbest takes I’ve ever heard.

Nobody finds family concerns as a roadblock to be unrealistic. In fact, if that’s ultimately the deal breaker, I think the majority would understand and move on.

But the recruiting angle is beyond retarded

If this is even remotely true and Lincoln thinks all of this will help him recruit in Louisiana while still coaching at Oklahoma, he’s a lot dumber than I thought

Considering he will be making a lot more, I don’t necessarily agree. Now the kids would be a different story

This post essentially says Riley is too dumb to realize that he doesn't have to live in Baton Rouge. I don't buy it.

So this guy thinks rumors of LR leaving OU helps his recruiting efforts....AT OU? Talk about some mental gymnastics.

Coaches will be using that shite against him for years to come.

Just last week they were laughing, saying Riley wasn’t in talks with LSU. Now it’s he’s playing LSU & he doesn’t like Baton Rouge.

$12.5M/year can buy the same type of life in Baton Rouge and New Orleans that they could get in Norman, OK.

Also, the fact he is saying the LSU interest in Riley makes him look like a hot commodity and helps on the recruiting trail says so much. Would we EVER think about things that way with LSU's coach? That we need them to be pursued by another university to help sell LSU and it's coach to recruits? That's some small school mentality garbage. He's proving the point that it's easier to recruit at LSU.

That’s what’s really funny about many of these OU insiders. If 1/3 of what they’ve said about Riley and his mindset is accurate, they’re doing us and anyone else that may want him a favor by paying him more to keep him.

Riley may absolutely not come to LSU, but that guy wrote shitty fan fiction and called it inside information.
