Thought it was 4 if he took another job? 25 if he was fired

After what I have seen you are going to need someone with a very strong personality to bring things together in Baton Rouge.

Riley has a 25 million dollar buy out, no way he is a candidate.


Damn why can't you people learn how buyouts work or do some research on his contract

Didn’t Dabo and Clemson turn us in for recruiting violations with Tristan Leigh? This would be epic

Where is Kiffin falling in all of this? Top 5 candidate?

My sources can confirm medication is involved.

Why he didn't say who is 2nd choice?


He won’t know that until TBL posts again.

The answer to that would be Dabo. There I said it.

It’s entirely possible/likely that you’re bored and enjoy toying with us, or that your source just isn’t fully clued-in, or we’re being purposefully mislead for other reasons.

However, if this is true, then I desperately hope Riley says yes. And I suspect he won’t/wouldn’t.

Exactly, Kiffin and Aranda not being involved is kind of ridiculous, even if you think they're fall out candidates. Personally I dont see how Napier is in but those 2 are out, and I could say Franklin doesn't impress enough for me to say hes better than Kiffin. I get they want to involve a minority coach, but Mel Tucker might be a better minority candidate than Franklin as his ceiling is quite unknown like Napier. Franklin is a fairly proven commodity and you'll get what you pretty much see at Penn St. right now.

Who is the 2nd guy? Kiffin?


Lol. No. Kiffin is absolutely not a “white whale”.

52-8


52-8 averages out to 10.4 - 1.6.

That sounds pretty good, except OU only plays 3-4 ranked teams and they tend to be in the #15 to the #25 range. Either he's not beating those ranked teams as consistently as he should or he's losing some games here and there to unranked teams.

That doesn't sound real promising in the SEC. LSU typically plays 6 or more ranked teams. If you double the number of tough games, is he going to average 3 losses a year? He's gonna have to do better than that.

I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens.

If we hire Napier then LSU has a problem because he is way down the line in guys that are getting talked to for this job


I don't see how that follows at all. Napier is nearly as respected in the biz as Fickell. I really don't understand why you all hate him so much. I don't really buy OP's source (though I also don't know who "Dohn" is and google doesn't help), but him being the first "not white whale" option makes complete sense.

I remember you now. You ARE Bruce Dohn, aren't you?

I don't think he's been fired either... Brian I mean.

I would expect Brian Dohn to have info on Franklin more than anybody. Or Narducci.

You posted this below on the 10/22 on other post and apperntly found a source with insider information in three days. Thats is as impressive and you are full of shite...

"I will tell you this. I believe Fickell is on the list, but wouldn’t be shocked if he wasn’t at all.
That’s not from a source that’s just my personal thought."

"My personal opinion would be Riley/ Fickell. That’s just a guess. No source has told me that. But Woodward’s “big dogs” could be different then what we view. ..."
