Can you imagine Deion at LSU?

I’ve never been a fan, but I’m starting to come around. He’s is the king of the NIL/transfer portal era and I kind of think it’s just a matter of which big program takes a chance on him first before he really goes boom on a national level. Of all possible landing spots in the SEC I kind of think LSU makes the most sense. He’d be a great culture fit, unlike our current situation. He would most definitely lock down LA and we’d also get national recruits in. LSU hasn’t needed X’s/O’s and leadership. They’ve needed players coaches who can get the dudes and let the coordinators do the work. Not going to happen bc BK’s buyout is too large, but holy shite it’s fun to think about.

Having Les Miles back would even be an upgrade.

The fan base that thinks Kelly is embarrassing us on a national level is asking for Deion...

A lot of the fan base would hate him no matter what. I think k it would get ugly and likely end in a lawsuit.

I’d probably have to stop watching and caring.

Today’s game is all about marketability and notoriety and we’d get that 10-fold with Deion. Complete 180 from BK. We’ve already got the assistants in place. Just swap on Sloan and we’d be on our way to another natty. Those of yall who don’t understand that are stuck in the past. There’s a reason Saban hung up his cleats.

Bad idea. If he loses 2 games the invective would be interminable. 3 losses and people are sending moving vans to his house.

It’s high risk/high reward. I don’t think any of us care about 7-5 or 8-4. Deion is a swing for the fences hire and that’s what I’d be looking for. Just don’t let Woody set his buyout

Deion is another clown coach. It will fall apart as quickly as it rose out there in Colorado.

Seriously ? Deion has turned a perennial loser into winners in year 2. Explain how Deion is embarrassing Colorado. Please explain

He’s embarrassing people like you who hate him for no apparent reason

I think you're misunderstanding me. I don't want Kelly run off, nor do I think Deion is an embarrassment. Those weren't my words. I'm saying that if our fan base thinks Kelly is embarrassing us for missing on recruits or yelling at players, Deion isn't the answer that they want.

Mark Jones would be calling our games. For that very reason...absolutely not. I'd honestly rather suck with BK.

---People were saying this at the beginning of the year but things look pretty good in Colorado.

I think Deion's success is tied to his sons' skills. When they're gone, he'll flop. Like Press Maravich.
