Majority of your "wish list" are from Ohio.

Fickell, Campbell, Tucker, Stoops, Urban.

Maybe you can rehire Les Miles, another Ohio guy.

The trolling by other fanbases is on point today.

Miami of Ohio used the known as the "Cradle of Coaches." Two coached at LSU: Paul Dietzel and Bill Arnsparger.

Saban went to college in the state. I made a post recently how every NC coach at LSU had a connection to Ohio except ONE.

Saban played at Kent State and was an assistant at Ohio State.

All of the guys I listed were born in Ohio.
There are a bunch of other OSU assistants that went on to greatness, pete carroll is one.

Earle Bruce had Saban, Urban, Tressel, Pete Carrol on his staff..that's nuts.

No, but he's on the list of LSU candidates.

He's not great, just good enough for LSU.

Strangely, Arkansas has a strong coaching history. Don't know 'em all but Bryant, Switzer, Jimmy Johnson. Charles McClendon, among others.

History is a worthy subject, Oracle.
Check out “Cradle of Coaches.” Goes back awhile.
Way before your compilation.
LSU has a record of coaches from Ohio, including one who coached a National Championship team.
I’ll let you do the research.

Saban is from West Virginia. He is the one great coach. The rest are good.

Les Miles was on the list of coaches that I named.
I'm assuming that is who you are referring to since he is from ohio and won a title at lsu.

I also said that was just a list off of the top of my head and that there are probably many more that I was not aware of and/or forgot.

Yeah I know Miami Ohio is cradle of coaches.


Ara P, Jim and John Harbaugh, Dietzel who coached at LSU.

That was my entire point, Ohio has cranked out an insane number of legendary coaches for one state.

I know that is sarcasm, but even Saban played his college ball in Ohio at Kent State, and was an assistant coach at Ohio State.

There’s not much to do in Ohio, and as they say…idle hands and all that.

My point is, when you’re bored out of your mind for 150 years, the idea of hanging out with a bunch of guys hugging each other for sport starts to become appealing.

Btw I’ve never met anyone from Ohio with a single redeeming quality.
