Why can’t Fickell announce he’s going to be LSU’s coach but finish season for Cincy?

It’s not like Cincy can blame him for the upgrade or the 100 million dollar contract? I don’t see the huge conflict.

I think they are waiting for playoff to be set. Doesn’t want distraction prior to then

Because he isn’t going to be LSU’s next coach. Saban is.

They wouldn't announce it if Cincy was in the playoffs. That would distract the Cincy players. No one is gonna do that.

Maybe he doesn’t want to frick over his current team and cause a distraction while they are still in the hunt.

Wow, I wonder how LSU fans would react if a head coach did that to an LSU team?

I don't see it possible we hire him. If he were our target he would be hired by now and announced if he could.

If he can't until the season is done, that could be January and no way we wait that long.

He built Cinci.
Cinci is on track for the playoffs.
Cinci is now a P5 team with an easier road to CFP than LSU.
Cinci is in his home state.

You don’t throw a turd in that punch bowl by saying you’re leaving at the end of the season.

Are you serious? College football is played by 18-22 year old kids, a sport where coaches ask players to trust them and ask them to run thru walls for them.

A coach preparing kids to play for and win a conference championship and possibly play for a national championship would not want to undermine the confidence his kids have in him.

Do you have kids? Or do you remember being 18?

Damn.

I feel like we're doing the Riley thing all over again. Insanity.

Jesus drama holy crap.

Would they blame him for going to Ohio state? Hell no. Would be no different. It’s Cincinnati for fricks sake.
