It's a top tier coaching job. It's just not a place where you are going to regularly steal a coach from a top 10 program to come here.

This board gets in a tissy about the rumor of the day and then gets disappointed when they don't work out.

Herby said this but there are literally a dozen examples of national talking heads saying the exact same things

Sometimes hiring a coach is all about timing. I think Florida is a great job and look at some of the coaches they've hired.


Florida hired who they wanted. They just didn't work out. They were not fourth or fifth choice.

Every person at ESPN has said top 5, to a man. 247 across the board, as well. Josh Pate said top 5 in football across the board (which is flattering, but a little crazy). Not a single person has even insinuated that USC is in the same conversation today. No one has said UF is better, either. Think about that.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

We think we’re better than what we are. We were chasing top tier names instead of going after realistic options like Kiffin and Napier.


So, accept that we're Tier II and III (ludicrous) and just don't go after top guys?

Yeah, no

It’s been so hard to pull in a coach because we’re not as top tier as we think we are…at least to other coaches



Are you trying to be stupid, or this a natural occurrence of stupid coming on out?


Name another program that’s won 3 national championships under 3 different coaches, two of which are considered on the lowest of tiers in coaching prowess.

Look, this isn’t homerism speaking here. It’s just facts. LSU is without question a top tier job. Now, if you don’t really desire to be the best and win, but rather hit cruise control and get paid, then maybe not, but if your goal is to win and win big, as in National Championships, then there isn’t a hotter place to coach, save maybe Alabama.

This. Jimbo to A&M was a specific situation that doesn’t apply here. Jimbo was unhappy with the admin at FSU and the program was slipping because of it. He was a far easier pull because of all the drama. There’s no one in a top job today who’s butting heads with their people in the same way.

Rich Rod was bama’s first choice when they hired Saban

Truth be told the Ryleigh thing was a fabricated fantasy of message boards. Not a single reputable national media person picked up on it

LSU is not a top tier job

I mean, other than the fact that our last three head coaches have won national titles.

And that the we are the only major school in a state that produces a goodly amount of NFL talent.

And we have some pretty sweet athletic facilities and academic programs for athletes.

And we have the best unis in the game.

Other than little things like that.
