He threw everything at the wrong guy. Should have been chasing Fickell. Woody isn’t as great of an AD as people think

It really wouldnt be anything worth being sad about, very few schools have ever pulled elite coaches from other power 5 jobs

Fickell didn’t want it I’d imagine. You ain’t choosing Cincy over LSU unless you just don’t want the job.

P5 coaches from top tier programs don’t move to other p5 programs without being a rift with the administration. The good coaches that other p5 programs have didn’t come through that way. Riley was never realistic.

Why would a coach move to LSU with the rabid fan base giving him 2 years at most to win a NC before demanding his head.

Because we're LSU and we are in a recruiting hot bed and we can throw money at you. Plus we have boosters and a rabid fan base that will eat you alive if you lose two games in a year and you are not playing for a national championship within 3 years after depleting your roster and coaching staff after winning the last one.

You people have no idea what DID or DIDN’T happen. All this crap is playing out in your own head at this point.

You're right. Orgeron got a raw deal from LSU. And I'm sure some other program with national title hopes will hire him today....said no one ever.

This is the truest statement made since the board opened up.

Y'all too fixated with this name bullshite. Go get a damn good coach. Nick Saban wasn't Nick when we hired him. Kirby Smart was a meh hire at Georgia. Dabo Wasn't elite when Clemson hired him. We shoul be trying to get Napier or Aranda

Name the schools that have hired an elite coach from a blue blood school over the last 50 years.

I’ll wait.

Point being: nothing is yet settled with this search, so maybe let’s exercise a modicum of self restraint before melting like a Karen at a Starbucks when her drink isn’t ready exactly the second she wants it to be.

Maybe the job isn’t as appealing as people think
